Buy/Sell -- BYU will win the MWC conference this year because no one in the MWC will be able to field a full basketball team. (utah, UNLV, and Boise ST have been bleeding players left and right)

Buy. They'll find a way to give it to the PG from New Mexico or Kawali Leonard at SDSU.

Buy. I think BYU, New Mexico, SDSU, and UNLV will all still be pretty good.



Utah makes it to the NIT at least, Buy or Sell?

Buy, Jimmer gets up for big games (ask unlv, az, florida) utah isn't considered a big game since they suck.

Sell, he'll still be outshadowed by newer players.



Both Collinsworth and Rogers get more minutes than Abouo this year (as well as Fredette, Emery, Hartsock, and Davies), Buy or Sell?

Buy & Sell. Collectively those 3 may have more minutes, but Abouo is earning his time. I guess I've forgotten their exact positions, but Rogers is going to be phenomenal, I expect them to push each other.



Buy or Sell, Collinsworth, Fredette, Emery will sweep the MWC awards at the end of the year.

Sell. It's written in MWC bylaws that BYU is not allowed to sweep the post-season awards in football or basketball.



Buy or sell: Jackson Emery finishes with 200 career steals. He's at 148.

Buy. When it comes to steals, Emery is the Ghost in the Darkness.



Fredette is officially enshrined at the end of the season in fans' minds as the most popular BYU basketball player since Danny Ainge, Buy or Sell?

Buy, I can't think of anyone else since Ainge that's even come close. Have we even had any all-americans besides Jimmer recently?



Buy/Sell Jimmer is a first round pick in next year's draft

Buy. He'll go near the end of the first round.



Jonathan Tavernari has a more successful semi-pro career playing overseas than Trent Plaisted, Buy or Sell?

Buy. There are two skills of which a player needs one to really be able to make money playing basketball:



Be able to shoot the ball or rebound. JT can definitely shoot. Trent is poor at both.



Buy/Sell: Jimmer finishes top 3 in all-time scoring at BYU. He's currently #11 with 1531 points. #3 is Devin Durrant 2285.

Buy - Jimmer is averaging about 31 PPG and let's say he plays in 36 games this year. That equals 1116 points. well higher than the 760 he needs for the 3-spot. So assuming we don't go deep into the post-season, and assuming Jimmer doesn't improve from this year to next and that he actually PLAYS the games he was sick this year.



This is an EASY buy.



Buy/Sell - BYU loses fewer games next year than this year.(and which ones)

Didn't Fredette average about 23 points per game last year?

here's my source.

http://www.byucougars.com/uploads/stats/basketball_m/stats.pdf



looks like the "average" I used was minutes per game. That's practically the same thing right?



so if we take last year's average of 22.1 POINTS per game x 36 games = 795.6 points. So same assumptions apply, plays in more games, no deep NCAA run, and doesn't improve, he still makes it by a nice margin, but not quite as easy a buy if he would simply up his average to 31 ppg.
