Scott, thanks for this list. Where did you get it? It isn't on the byu cougars web sight. I don't remember hearing much about Sweeney or Nelson. Is K. Davis the guy from Utah State? Which of the new men do you think will contribute? I think Davis, Toolson, Chatman (pg?), Aytes and Neilson will do well. I think Neilson's production will be close to Mika's. Kaufusi will be in a learning mode but will be muscle. I believe these newcomers will make this years team better than last years.

I got the list from rumor board. I think the bottom ones are walkons/scout team.

Is this a members only sight? How do you access it?

I think the roster breaks down this way.

Starters
K Collinsworth
A Winder
T Haws
J Aytes* Not available till mid-season
N Austin

Bench
F Bartley
L Worthington
C Fisher
S Halford

Freshman
J Chatman
D Nixon* Walk-on planned to be scholarship player after mission
I Neilson
R Andrus

Deep Bench
J Sharp

Walk-ons
C Kaufusi
J Toolson
Sweeney
Nelson

Transfer-Sitting out
K Davis


It will be interesting to see if one of the freshman can step up and seize a role. All the of young bigs will have a bunch of chances.

[Qman]

Well we certainly have enough guys for full scrimmages.

[Cougs_Rule]

My prediction is that Josh Sharp is done by January when Aytes is added to the roster. A couple of these guys are not going to dress and may just get dropped.

I wouldn't put any immediate stock into I. Nielsen being a major contributor right away and definitely not matching Mika's productivity. He has height, but is thin and needs experience. according to some in the know, he is a project, should project more of a Nate Austin rise/performance than Mika.

I like this summary. My honest feeling is that we'll know right off the bat what kind of year we'll have. If Austin, Sharp, or Halford see significant minutes then this team will suck again (at least until Aytes maybe comes to the rescue). I pray that the new guys can bring some, y'know, shooting back to Provo. It's unbelievable to me how bad a bunch of D1 white guys have shot the 3 ball the last few years.

That being said, defense and rebounding are the always the biggest problems at BYU. I don't think we have any idea if there are any upgrades coming for those weaknesses.
