PROVO — Dave Rose couldn’t help but smile and think back to the fall of 2016 and ’17 after the Cougar Tipoff ended Friday night.
The BYU basketball coach smiled while pondering out loud how fun it was to see Nick Emery on the court again after the trials he’s been through to return and how much progress power forward Yoeli Childs has made since the team’s annual intrasquad scrimmage two years ago.
Childs dominated offensively to the pleasure of several thousand fans at the Marriott Center, scoring a game-high 35 points with nine rebounds.
