Nick’s a cheating weasel. It’s too bad that he’s on the team this year

Sadly, i have to say that I agree with all the haters. I hate what he did to BYU. No excuse! The problem is I can’t tell exactly why Dave or BYU let him stay. Is it his soul they are worried about? Or did they sell BYU Hoops soul for a mess of Nick’s soles to be on the floor?

Sadly I third it. I'm glad for the win but 1 win doesn't go too far in making up for all the forfeits.

How can a 1,000+ career points player be another McKay Cannon?
As in the first game in the middle of season he has a really good game and we think the rest will be the same and then they're not.

I wonder if part of the reason for BYU's bad performance was because Emery was practicing with the team, but not playing the in the games. So the team was used to having him in there as part of the offense and defense every day during practice, but then that piece was missing during games.

Nick made some mistakes. He can't plead ignorance. But I hate the NCAA and their silly rules and extreme sanctions more. Welcome back, Nick!

Cannon played well above his career average the first few games as a BYU player. Emery played at about his career average his first game. Performances tend to return to the average.

And Emery's performance in his second game was why I said what I said.

He played some great defense, which this team sorely needs.
