Tyler Bey breaking out on both ends of floor for CU men's basketball

Tad Boyle put lofty expectations on Tyler Bey's shoulders early last year, refusing to be shy about lauding a player who had just set foot on campus as having the same rebounding potential of Andre Roberson, one of the greatest rebounders in Colorado basketball history.

Boyle eventually eased those expectations somewhat as Bey endured the ups-and-downs in 2017-18 typical of most freshmen. Still, with Bey emerging as a star right before his eyes, Boyle can't help but keep that bar raised high for the sophomore forward.

"I expect Tyler Bey to be a double-double guy night in and night out," Boyle said.
