How bad do we miss Chris Collinsworth?

Loyd had 3 or 4 good games last year. He wasn't even the back-up to Jimmer most of the year. There's a reason why he's no longer on the team.



Collinsworth would improve the front court depth more and would help on the defensive boards.



The person we really miss this year though is Haws. I would take Haws over Loyd. We talk about Loyd a little more because he left the team, and not to go on a mission, but Haws was a great mid-range shooter, at least as good as Jimmer at FT's and was a good defender. Can't fault the kid for going on a mission though.



If both Haws and Collinsworth were available, Jimmer, Jackson, Charles, Haws and KC would rotate the back-court, and Davies, Hartsock, Collinsworth, and Anderson would rotate up front.

Believe it or not, but Haws is actually a better free-throw shooter than Jimmer. Haws finished the season shooting 92 percent from the line and if I recall correctly he had quite the streak going before departing on his mission.



I'd actually take Haws over Lloyd. As much as it would be nice to give Jimmer some rest, a mid-range shooter would do us more good.

I'd take Haws over Loyd too. And I think Haws' streak is at like 38.

I'd take Haws anyday over Lloyd as well, but don't feel like we "lost" him to injury or stupidity like we lost Collinsworth and Lloyd respectively.



And I think his streak is 42.

Of course, we'd probably take Haws over Loyd because Haws is white and we don't like black players or coaches at BYU, right? ;)

The PC police are going to come down hard on that comment, even if you were kidding. :lol:
