A couple favorite quotes from Keynote:
“Our relationship [with Coach Hardy] is on a whole other level now. My exit interview was brutal. Will shot it to me straight. Will calls me late at night and tells me little things like, ‘Play defense,’ and then he hangs up. But also, we got to the realization where we have some great dialogue.”
[about offseason routine]: “I’m in the gym in the morning, I eat my lunch, take a nap and then I’m back in the gym at night. It’s repetitive. It was uncomfortable to do that every single day. But the work just became consistent and I find joy in it now.”
Nice to see Keynote getting some attention from outside Utah. Although I have liked him being our well kept secret (probably due to the small market fan syndrome of always fearing players wanting to leave eventually), if he keeps going like this he’ll be in serious MIP contention and he’ll inevitably get attention. Props to him for putting in the work.

Idk why this is so funny.
MIP race is a bit crowded this year so I dont think he’ll win it but hes turned into a phenomenal player nonetheless
Will Hardy, 2:30 AM on a random Tuesday: “Oh shit I gotta tell Keyonte something”
Imagining Hardy calling Keyonte in the middle of the night to just tell him to play defense is absolute comedy.
