Goatnapper'96 is an unknown quantity at this point
Default What missions can do....

I think that Chris Collinsworth will be a prime example. Perhaps I am a homer, but I think that his progression this year indicates that if he didn't go on a mission he would probably be an all conference player as a junior and senior. In fact if he didn't go, I think he would be the starting 3 next year and I think replacing Burgess and Murdock with him and Fredette would make BYU a much more athletic and capable team.

Am I the only one who would strongly consider choosing Trent Plaisted going pro over Collinsworth serving a mission?

If given the choice of Trent staying for his senior year & Chris going on a miss, I'd choose Trent every time.

Chris has certainly showed massive improvement over the last 5-6 games. I don't know how well he'd do as a 3rd or 4th option, but based on this improvement it's not out of the realm of possibility that he'd be all-conference type performer as an upperclassman.

I agree with you. It's telling when your greatest hope of victory comes from playing two freshmen.

I've got good news and bad news: Plaisted is coming back for his senior year.

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.
