Given he’ll very likely be starting and getting consistent minutes, will be a major contributor and an exciting part of next year’s team.

100s or 1000s of energetic local fans creates a great atmosphere (as seen locally in Provo and Logan).

One single fan trying to make a difference stands out and can appear to some (not all) to be foolish but give the man credit for his effort.

If just a modest 1% of our student body were to show up and act like him every home game……

Really hope Alex (with help of NIL $$$$) can encourage Dawes to stay. Unfortunate that for some reason former Coach Smith didn’t give him the consistent minutes he deserved.

Might be Andre and team are still in dicussion. May also be Andre wants to complete his season before announcing anything so as not to distract his team.

While his free throw shooting is certainly not stellar, he’s a good defender. But surprised if he can get another year.

Maybe 1000 there. 6PM tough time to get there on a work night for some. (Fortunately I have very easy going managers who will let me shift my hours and hour or two for events and appointments).

Aggies keep on losing coaches and keep on getting into the Dance. Had a much needed late win on UNLV’s home floor last night which should firmly keep them off of the bubble and I very much expect to see them in the tourney.

Would like to see Utah Valley finally make it in.

Glad we earned the win in January that is looking to be the most impressive (including Kansas) this season and that we had the home game first in the series. We likely don’t win that one in Provo and not sure we could have beaten them in Salt Lake last week. Have to credit Cougars for playing their best ball of the year right now. They possibly…[Read more]

In pre-season when we set the team record for made treys a few times and our percentage of field goal attempts from outside the arc was higher than in many NBA games, I noted that on days the outside shots aren’t falling, we would struggle. Last night was a definite example of that.

Wahlin showed great improvement as the season progressed. Could be a valuable asset to keep around.

Dawes’ rebounding numbers are huge. Led team in total rebounds with fewer minutes than the regular starters. Far and away the highest rebounds/minutes on the squad.

Hope we can hold onto Dawes.

Very grateful the curtains no longer used at basketball games.

Hitting 40-50 percent from 15 feet is more productive than 3 out of 14 (21%) from 3 point range.

Little heats up from time to time (kept the game in Provo from becoming quite ugly). Would like to see him stay around. Gets consistent minutes and could become a valuable asset.

As a man of integrity, Alex may very well feel an obligation to stay committed to the Mavs until the end of the year.

Hopefully he can be able to jump right in and be ready to go after players in the portal. I perceive we can go after a player once their season ends. Not to mention reaching out to some of our current players to convince them to stay.

There will be high expectations, but also there seems to be high $$$upport for those that want to invest in players (and assistants).

Not all of us have the funds needed to attract quality players in today’s game but I am looking forward to renewing my season tickets and hope others (in particular the students) will help pack the stands.

Better to spend $5-10 on a single prima donna, or $1 each for a handful of very talented players who can gel together?

For all we know, Alex has made a commitment which is being kept secret while he sorts out the process of leaving his current position.
