Although international ball, this is great experience for the quarterback of the basketball team (figure of speech for those who fall under the Y logo).

Go UTES!

Hardly a jab there ewete fan. Isn't this the same kid all the hooty yoots fans wanted to run out of town during the basketball season?

What would any yoot fans know about an experienced quarterback? hoops or football?

Unless, that is you secretly watched all the BYU games, then I see where your knowledge is coming from...:)

While we're on the subject, what would any Zoo fans know about an experienced quarterback? Unless "experienced" is a euphamism for "throws lots of interceptions".......

BYU lays claim to the NFL's all-time record holder for interceptions thrown in a game (Ty Detmer - 7). John "Crybaby" Beck is the NFL's all-time record holder for worst INT-TD ratio, currently at 3:1.

Anyway, back to basketball: While all you zoobs are laughing at Kepkay making the Canadian Olympic Basketball Team, can any of you tell me how many Zoo basketball players will be playing for their countries in the Olympics this year?

But there's hope for BYU representation in the next Olympics. Once Trent Plaisted goes to the Azerbaijan basketball league, they're sure to make him a citizen and he will proudly play for Azerbaijan basketball in the 2012 Olympics.

Kepkay when down by 3 at the buzzer dont settle for a layin. You need 3 points.

I am a Ute through and through but for Canada's sake i hope they don't give him the ball in the last seconds of a game. He's like oh-fer-twenty-seven. Hopefully this experience will help him improve.

Congratulations on being selected to the Canadian Olympic team. Good Luck and I look forward to seeing at the Huntsman Center this next season.

Congrats to Tyler, eh? Here's to your success at the Olympics and as a Ute point guard this winter.
