Monson: Will BYU basketball ever be great?

It's the same team.

Players playing different positions but blending into the same blurred mass: Lee Cummard morphs into Noah Hartsock who morphs into Jackson Emery who morphs into Tyler Haws who morphs into Chase Fischer who morphs into Kyle Collinsworth who morphs into Nick Emery.

As long as Dave Rose is coaching the Cougars, they will be Rose's Cougars.

Which is a good thing. Good, good, good, good, good.

Good is good.

But will BYU ever be something more?

When it was announced a fistful of years ago that the Cougars were headed for the West Coast Conference, on account of football going independent, it was easy to think BYU would have a shot at winning a load of league titles, winning a load of league tournaments.
