I know Haws is just a sophmore, but do you think he will be become BYU's all-time leading scorer? He currently has 1127 points, 730 of which are from this year. Jimmer holds the record at 2599, so Haws is 1472 points away, so if Haws scores the same number of points in both his Junior and Senior years as he did this year, he will pass Jimmer (assuming Haws scores at least 4 points tomorrow night).
I actually think that Haws' scoring average will go down over the next two years. One of the reasons he scored so many points is because of the lack of other effective options. With the players we will add over the next few years, he will score fewer points and we will have a better team.
HAws' scoring will go up next year. It will have to in order to stay competitive. Davies 20 goes away. Mika may bring 10 ppg next year, MAY. But not likely 20 and not the first or second option in scoring. And Austin will have more of a green light, but will NOT light it up. 10 ppg at most.
Then, by his Sr year, Haws will still be the first option scorer. But how Carlino develops and supporting cast as well, makes all the diff. But incoming talent will Not likely, by itself, account for a scoring drop in Haws.
However, the likelihood of breaking Jimmer's record has to fall below the 30th percentile. But if Haws does, he will be in POY-- as in Naismith contention.
