I would like to hear more about Harstock and Anderson. I have read about Abou but not about the other 2. Could someone refer me to a sight that gives some info about them and any other prospects?

If some of these players turn out I could see BYU having a better season next year that this past one. I have always felt good about Miles and feel he'll be better after one year back from his mission. It's going to be tougher for opposition to get into the paint. We are shaping up to be very good defensively especially if Emery can get in shape and Abou turns out.


I also hope that Cummard comes back. He is a vet that can provide needed leadership.

I thank all of you for your information.

I've got a couple links with some video that will help you get all caught up on Hartsock. He is an EXTREMELY gifted offensive player. He will be coming off a mission and won't have played for 2-3 years so it might take until mid season for him to really get comfortable. He is the type of player that could make BYU fans forget about Trent Plaisted really fast. He has a better offensive game than Trent no question. Think of a guy with a better post game than Trent, who can also step outside and knock down 3's consistently. He is going to be a special player. The second video features Hartsock against Brooke and Robin Lopez from Stanford (both of whom are going to be drafted this year) and also against Washington's Quincy Poindexter.

Anderson is a walk-on from Arizona. He is 7'0" tall and about 110 lbs. by the looks of him. Dude is way skinny. He already served a mission and redshirted last year. He'll be a freshman this year with 4 years to play 4. He plays center and despite what many people might think, has a pretty decent offensive game. He can shoot the ball pretty well and I've been at practices where he's knocked down consecutive 3's. He doesn't have the strength yet to really compete consistently at this level. He probably wont see much time.

Thank you Detmer. I read many of the comments. The only place I found a size for him claimed he was 6'9" and 210. He looked biger than that in the vidio. He looked very good. He does have a shot and was not scared to mix it up. I could see him getting a lot of playing time this year.

No problem. Glad to help.
