AT A CROSSROADS: BYU Basketball Stumbles, Defense COLLAPSES in Painful Loss as AJ Dybantsa SHINES

The BYU men's basketball program faces a decisive moment as their third straight defeat—falling 99-92 to the Oklahoma State Cowboys—signals a program at the brink. Defensive breakdowns, most glaringly the 52 points surrendered in the paint, trump even AJ Dybantsa’s explosive 36-point performance and solid outings from Richie Saunders and Robert Wright III. Jake Hatch scrutinizes whether BYU’s defensive identity has unraveled for good and asks if players like Kennard Davis Jr. can step up amid this adversity. With a brutal slate ahead, including matchups against Houston, Arizona, Baylor, and Iowa State, the Cougars must rediscover their pride and defensive cohesion or risk a downward spiral in the ultra-competitive Big 12. Hatch gives an unfiltered take on coaching responsibilities, calling for player-led accountability meetings as he assesses Kevin Young’s leadership under pressure. The conversation turns to a sobering off-court topic: yet another “F the Mormons” chant, this time at Oklahoma State, drawing scrutiny. Young’s emotional postgame response raises challenging questions about bigotry and sportsmanship in college athletics, while Hatch discusses the need for sincere institutional action and support for BYU’s players—both members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and non-members alike. The episode shifts gears with a comprehensive preview of BYU women’s softball as they launch their season in Florida against powerhouses like Tennessee, Michigan State, and Notre Dame. Can long-time coach Gordon Eakin’s squad, facing the daunting reality of the Big 12’s elite competition, leverage its tradition of adaptability and success to return to the NCAA Tournament? The injury news on star Jalen Lambert adds further intrigue to an already compelling campaign. Stay tuned as Locked On Cougars delivers passionate, insider-driven analysis on BYU’s basketball crossroads, addresses critical cultural issues affecting the program, and highlights why softball could be an unexpected bright spot for Cougar fans this spring. Will BYU respond to its basketball crisis and set a tone for the remainder of the season, or is a more substantial reset on the horizon? #BYUfootball #BYUCougars #BYU #BYUhoops #BYUbasketball #Big12Conference #Big12 #GoCougars #GoCougs #LockedOnCougars #LOC #BrighamYoungUniversity #ChurchofJesusChristofLatterDaySaints #LDSChurch #Mormon #LDS #KYU #OklahomaStateCowboys #OklahomaState If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
