Dave Rose and BYU basketball held their annual media day on September 29, officially ushering in the 2016-17 basketball season.

Last week, we previewed the BYU basketball backcourt. Spoiler alert: it looks to be a really good one.

This week, we’ll be breaking down the BYU front court.

Rose has an incredibly young team (10 underclassmen are on the roster), but this may be the most talented unit to call Provo home in a long time.

Still, the Cougars path to the top of the West Coast Conference won’t be easy. Both St. Mary’s and Gonzaga have deep and talented rosters, and most experts have them finishing in the Top 20.

But, for the first time in a long time, BYU basketball will have the talent to match.

So let’s look at the bigs.
