Judkins grateful to have the Annex during pandemic

PROVO — BYU women’s basketball coach Jeff Judkins is happy that the NCAA has announced a Nov. 25 tipoff date for the start of the season.

“It’s about time,” Judkins said. “We’ve been hearing about this the whole summer and it’s been difficult. What’s going to happen? When’s the season going to start?”

Judkins said his team is in a strong position because of the Marriott Center Annex, which the players have been using for months for practice and training.

“For us, we’ve been really fortunate because we have this annex,” he said. “We can lock it down and kind of be in a bubble. We have good opportunities to do more things than other programs probably.”

I was sad to see JJ go to BYU.  Nonetheless, Jeff is a good man and I like him.  My interactions with Jeff and his family have always been very positive.

He appears to be a sweet man.

I went to Eastwood Elementary School with his daughter, Jessica. That was a long time ago.

Hey, Juddy, you were already in a bubble of sorts.

Are his players going to class in the school with the highest numbers in the state?   Then they are not really in a COVID-19 bubble.

I’m out of the loop. Are Utah and tds holding in-person classes right now?

Years ago I ran into JJ at a sandwich shop.  Candidly he told me he wished he was at the U and not byzoo.

JJ and Maji weren’t a great mix (and I love both of them).

Sad Juddy is down south now.

If we could have kept the trio of Majerus, Judkins and Donny Daniels think what could have been.
