7 to 8 um okay

One can shoot at a pretty high level the rest we’ll.see

How many of us are going to be there tomorrow night? If your an OOTC make it a double header and stay the weekend and watch the Coogs beat Memphis Saturday afternoon at 2:30 I have no doubt there are plenty of tickets for that game still

I’ll be there along with 3 other Coogs and 1 non Coog

Turns out, Pope and Sampson go way back.

“Kelvin Sampson, I love him dearly. He is a great human being,” Pope said. “When I was being recruited, he was the first coach to start recruiting me in high school. He started recruiting me when I was in the seventh grade in the state of Washington. We’ve had a great relationship ever since.”

This is a quick turnaround for BYU, which left Thursday morning for Houston after Wednesday night’s win over SUU.

“It’s not ideal. But I’m excited about it because our whole goal, everything we’re thinking about and talking about every single day, is how can we get better? How can we prepare ourselves to be a great team by the end of the season?” Pope said. “These obstacles are great because they expose things. I’m really grateful that we got to play San Diego State the second game of the season because we got to compete at an elite level. … It lets us know exactly where we are right now and where we need to grow. There’s no guessing and no wondering. You just know. We learned so much from that game.”

That’s unfortunate. Heal up, get some rest, and get waited on like a king in the meantime.

Looking forward to this game love the late Friday start time.

BYU is smallish so we might see some 4 guard experimentation.
