Emery is the focus of a school investigation regarding whether he accepted improper benefits from a BYU booster, The Salt Lake Tribune reported last month. BYU officials have acknowledged that they investigated the allegations first made last spring and have turned their findings over to the NCAA and are awaiting a decision from college basketball’s governing body.
Emery played in only four minutes of last week’s exhibition game against Westminster College, and Rose said after the game that the guard was not feeling well. He practiced on Tuesday, rotating between the first and second teams.
“Nick is feeling better, yeah, but Nick won’t play this week, for sure,” Rose said after practice Tuesday.
