Yes, Bradley is from Castle Dale. I think he grew up in the 4th house on the east side of the street, when coming from the north.

Not sure if any of those would be called exceptional.

I think Durrant, Roberts, Larsen, Wesly and Hansen were what I am thinking. I didint include bradley as he played only one year. Didnt include Whiting as he was a transfer

Ainge screwed up BYU basketball for everyone involved with BYU basketball - from coaches to players to administration to fans. He gave them hope that BYU could actually compete and succeed when he made that endline to endline drive to the hoop against Notre Dame.

Think I'm just talking to hear myself? What has BYU done since that day?

We don't care about basketball. :)

I'm glad SU gave the history lesson for us, but the Durrant and Roberts I referred to were the second round of both families who played in the 90's and were within your 20 year mark.

Well from that point up until about 1996, we were exactly even with you in all respects. There was a bout a five year period where you went off the charts, but since then it's been about even again--save the one year you had the Sweet 16 run with Bogut.

Here are what I consider to be Utah's Homegrown recruiting for that time frame:

Josh Grant
Jimmy Soto
Alex Jensen
Britton Johnsen
Mark Jackson
Drew Hansen
Mark Rydalch (or is he from Colorado?)

Mark and Ken weren't as good as their brothers. They were still good, but not what I'd consider exceptional. But since Red Death has Alex Jensen listed as one of the utes exceptionals, I think we can include them now.
