Need 6 more guys. This should help answer some questions about Shaq and Diallo. They are back on the practice court already....with Coach Brandin Knight.

Looks like we have an adult in charge!

Love seeing Knight in RU gear.
And the gear they are all wearing looks good.
 
I look forward to seeing a new improved Jonathan Laurent. Also, Williams, Laurent,Johnson, and Sanders. Just those guys alone give me a lot of hope for running the floor, and having backup.Hopefully this strength and conditioning coach is the real deal.
 
I stated last week that all of these guys were practicing except for Laurent when I stopped in the RAC. Dadika and Batie were also practicing.

During this time of the year the entire team is not allowed to workout together because the NCAA considers that "practice".

It's "individual" workouts now. Most teams typically split that up into one day with perimeter guys and another day with low post guys.

The break em up around six baskets and the coaches, grad assistants and managers put them through workouts.

Please Please find just one more person who is 6'8" or taller and we have a team I'll go to war with.
 
Lookin' good, fellas. Really wish DJ didn't leave, we need depth. I'm sure he didn't expect a high-caliber coaching staff to arrive in the wake of the last regime's mess.

Not a bad 7 assuming Corey stays, but boy do we need to fill out a roster...especially with uncertainties with Shaq and Diallo...we still need four more scholarship players knowing how often our guys get injured

IF and that's a big IF this team stays healthy, I honestly believe we will surprise people next year by being competitive and maybe even a few upsets.

A lineup of Corey, Nigel, Laurent, Freeman and Diallo/Doorson w/ Williams as the scoring 6th man gives pikiell talent to work with..

Freeman won't be here. He's transferring out.
 
The guys were working hard at the RAC again today. I was impressed with the drills that I saw.
 
Is it normal for the team to be working out together this time of year??(I am teeming with optimism)
Good to see

We do need to fill out the roster and I have TOTAL confidence our new coaches are on it and will come up with some surprises !

Hey,,we just got a BIG ....TODAY......from San Jacinto College that can play D and score....
THAT was a surprise !!!
 
The team was not working out together. Knight was working with Laurent, Williams and Johnson where one guy was going against one and the third was sitting out. When they stopped Jay Young worked with Freeman, Doorson and Diallo taking turns with Young telling each what they would do. As soon as one was done a second guy jumped in followed by the third so only one was working at a time with Young. I was very impressed by Knight and Young.
