BYU 2017
Initial thoughts:
This is a much better team, even without Emery, this is a team that will be a much more disruptive force in the WCC vs last year.
Hardnett. best ball handling PG that BYU has seen since......?
TJ and Elijah seem much more confident and sure in their roles.
Worthington and Dastrup will actually contribute
Looking for a huge season for Childs. Guy is a beast.
BYU isn't losing to a UVU type team this year, have looked much closer to a D1 team vs last year when they were looking like a church ball team.

Re: BYU 2017
This is lone peak .33 and I think it's going to be a better/improved team. As down as I was on this team last year, they are going to have a much better year.

Re: BYU 2017
Team ball and defense have been missing from BYU since Jimmer. If either one of those are back, it ought to be a better season.

Re: BYU 2017
I think this has more to do with Heath Schroyer being the defacto "main" coach now and less to do with Mika being gone or Emery's off the court issues no longer distracting the team.

Hardnett had a very rough game vs Princeton, and the addition of Mckay Cannon may cut some of his minutes. Really liking the chemistry that this team has shown so far. Very unselfish and willing to pass the ball. Unlike any team since before Jimmermania.

Re: BYU 2017
I'd agree that this is playing a huge role in this years team defense and patience on offense. methodical, more effective pace to the team. BYU has no bad losses this year (so far).
