BYU’s Starting Point Guard Dallin Hall Withdraws from Transfer Portal and Returns to Team
BYU’s starting point guard, Dallin Hall, has made the decision to withdraw from the transfer portal and return to the Cougars for another season. This news comes as a relief to BYU fans, as Hall’s impact on the team goes far beyond his stats on the court.
Last season, Hall averaged 9.0 points, 5.1 assists, and 3.5 rebounds per game, but his importance to the team was immeasurable. BYU’s offense ran through Hall, and his ability to break down defenses and find open shooters was crucial to the team’s success. When Hall was off the floor, BYU struggled to find its rhythm on offense.
In the eyes of many, including this author, Hall was the most important player on BYU’s team last season. His decision to return is a major win for new head coach Kevin Young, who is looking to build on the team’s success in the Big 12.
Young, who recently took over as head coach, has made retaining key players his top priority. With Hall’s return, along with Richie Saunders announcing his return the day before, Young has already made significant strides in keeping the team’s core intact.
In his introductory press conference, Coach Young emphasized the importance of the players and their accomplishments. He expressed his excitement to have Hall and the rest of the team back in BYU uniforms for the upcoming season.
With Hall back in the fold, BYU fans can look forward to another exciting season with their star point guard leading the way. Coach Young’s focus on retaining key players has paid off, setting the stage for what promises to be an exciting season for the Cougars.
