At the end of the year, Alex Jensen was one of the key components on a final four team. Cummard choked in a manner that allowed his team to get beat in the first round, against a team that based on seeding, BYU should have beat.
I'm guessing you didn't watch the game. How many times did you see the Cougs play this year?

I wouldn't exactly say he choked. Cummard hasn't asserted himself offensively on a consistent basis. He had 5 points on 2/4 shooting. He nearly won the game himself in the last minute hitting a huge three, and putting in an amazing put back on a rebound he came from the opposite side of the court. He did get in foul trouble and had his minutes limited, but Rose was on fire that game and deserved to take some of his minutes. That's what happens to role players sometimes. Cummard was third team MWC this year. What was Jensen as a sophomore?

Funk, you're not an idiot, but I don't think you're qualified to comment on BYU sports with as much authority as you do.
