Good.

This is what I expected. I don't have any inside info, but everything I've heard the last two years from various sources is that he's not really happy at BYU, with his role and development and was itching to get out, even if it's not to the NBA. Not that it was a big rift with the coaches, just that he felt his progress as a BB player would be better in a different situation. I can't imagine having DUI chanted every time he shot free throws last year or seeing his wife's mug shot blown up to poster size by opposing fans helped either.

It's too bad. With him, we could have been a top 25 team and a 4-5 seed. Without him, it will be interesting to see how the team forms, but we should be about as good as we were last year.

I don't mind if Trent is gone. Peanut brain was very frustrating to watch.

BYU will be a worse team without him next year, brain size notwithstanding.

Good luck in Europe Trent.

Is there a market there for big guys who can't play D, and can't shoot a 5 foot jump shot?

I agree. BYU has seen its high water mark for basketball and it wasn't very high.

Good riddance to Trent. Coach Rose should have kicked him out when his wife had that drug problem, and he decided not to go on a mission. We can't have people like that stealing tithing funds and giving BYU and the church a black eye.
