First of all, I am not a coach.....I just act like one on here. That being said......
Besides Fredette, I think the high altitude was the great equalizer also. Our team's athleticism was not put to use.
I say when they come into arena, we press them with a 1-3-1 trap defense. Trap Jimmer with two players and have Malcolm or Carwell at the bottom of this trap defense taking care of any drivers anc cleaning up the boards with any crashers. Or a hybrid of this (which i seen the Aztecs run) of a 3/4 court press and putting pressure on Fredette right from the inbound pass.
A box +1 defense with someone on Fredette's back all game? Or just simply man to man.
Or better yet....as I have posted before...think we can contact Tanya Harding?

I think the best defense is a good offense. In other words, we need to aggressively go after Jimmer on offense and hope to get him in foul trouble. There is no other way to stop the guy, it's that simple.

There is no other way to stop the guy, it's that simple. That is how it panned out for UCLA vs. YBU. Davies fouled out, Jammies had 4 and sat some, Emery also had 4 and sat. I'm sure UCLA made hay while they sat and of course there was no elevation fatigue to deal with. End of story.

The 'Elbow him in the face away from the ball and ref' defense.
The 'Pray he forgets to shave and gets kicked out of BYU' defense.
The 'Hope he has indecent relations with a chick and gets kicked out' defense.

There is no other way to stop the guy, it's that simple. We did a decent job on him and he still got 43 or so. We went dry on offense for about six minutes. That was the ball game.

Defense wasnt the issue. Yes he got 43 points but we held them to their lowest scoring output of the season at 71.
Our offense was the issue. 3-point shooting could have been better but the biggest issue not being able to finish around the rim. How many times did we miss from 1 foot away? We had 14 offensive rebounds but couldn't do anything with them.

I am pretty sure that Justin Hutson is in charge of the defense.
Lets see what he comes up with.

This may sound crazy, but what I would do is put Jamaal Frankling on Jimmer for at least 10 minutes. This kid is probably the best athlete on the team. I would tell this kid to only worry about defense and go as hard as he can for 5 minutes a half. I think his length and athleticism could bother Jimmer and give the other guys a rest. Didn't UCLA do something similar by putting a taller athletic young kid on him?
Fisher needs to use his bench more against a fast paced tough cover team like BYU.

Put Jimmer on the DO NOT FLY list.

You gave me a great idea....hope others think so. When YBU comes to Viejas Arena on 2/26...need to wear black shirts, of course....but when someone called him Jammies Fredette....make sinces about Jammies Fredette and all the students should wear paJammie bottoms. There has to be a way to make fun of him. He is a good player, but he is the only player on the YBU team. If he wasn't on that team, they would be NOTHING!!!

The Nancy Kerrigan Defense sounds about right. Right in the knee.

Feed Jimmer the same food they fed Kawhi the last 2 games at BYU
