At 6’3, Beo is a pure shooting guard. He is not going to play any part in the assist game. Imagine a shorter Tyler Haws. He owns the Richland record for scoring @49 points as a Junior.
In 2016, Beo averaged 27 points, seven rebounds and three assists for the 25-9 Bombers. In the regional loser-out game against Central Valley, Beo poured in 48 points.
Beo is well acquainted with BYU’s current and future players; of the crop of Lone Peak High School products slated to join or re-join the program (Nick Emery, TJ Haws, Eric Mika), Beo says “I’m actually really excited to play with all of them; I have watched them play on TV and thought they were really good.”
Second guy to comment on playing with the Lone Peak boys.
Just curious why you say he is not going to play any part in the assist game?
With shorter games and a slower offense in his high school games, it seems to me his assist game looks like a strength of his game.
Three assists a game on this year’s cougar team would have been second to KC wouldn’t it?
Sounds like that’s what the players are wanting to do. Beo said he’s playing because those players want to win and he’s a team player. This is going to be a great year!
Actually this is what he said - “I’m actually really excited to play with all of them; I have watched them play on TV and thought they were really good.”
Didn’t see anything about him being a “team player”, but that’s what you thought about Fischer and the last shot of the season attempted by a BYU player was his blocked attempt to beat Valpo… kind of ironic how it ended. I just hope the new guys don’t watch any replays of this past seasons team playstyle.
It would really be awesome if just one time, just once that all of the hype and expectations actually happened like everyone here seems to claim it will.
Just once…
I don’t think anybody ever hyped the football team from 1984 and I’m not sure the basketball team that made a showing at the sweet 16 was hyped all that much. The problem is that BYU almost never lives up to expectations. I will be surprised if the volleyball team wins the national championship. They absolutely should and have to be the favorites coming up but we will see if it happens.
Are you talking about the volleyball team? They have won a national championship and should be able to do it again this season and possibly for a couple of seasons after. They start 5 sophomores…
Volleyball is a different sport than football and basketball. It doesn’t have near the national exposure or popularity. Also, the officiating isn’t nearly as objective… there are no situations where an official can make a call and get away with it if it is a bad call. However, those are more minor obstacles.
The biggest obstacle is that BYU too often gets caught up in the head game, deer in the headlights problem. They lose mental focus and I’m not sure of the reason for that. They have been the best volleyball team before and not won the national championship.

SG: Probably because of wiggly fingers and constant thoughts of who to marry
Now you have all of these athlete power couples marrying each other and creating superkids so they can start being recruited in kindergarten. Ten years from now the Collinsworth and Mangum kids are going to be getting letters from BYU…
This guy reminds me of the St. Marys players…terrific shooters but not great athletes. He could probably thrive in the right system. He could be a smaller version of Zach Seljaas.
