Early Candidates to Replace BYU Assistant Chris Burgess

With Chris Burgess gone to Utah, BYU now has an assistant spot to fill. Burgess was BYU’s big man coach and involved in the recruitment of many BYU players. His loss leaves big shoes to fill, and something Pope will have to move quickly on to fill his spot.

BYU has an extra layer of vetting that needs to go on since the candidates need to go through Church leadership, so I expect this search to take at least a couple of weeks.

Pope will have a longer list than what I have below, but this is what I’m hearing early from those close to BYU’s program and some names I think make sense.
