I was able to go watch the guys Monday.
This group is bigger than any we have had a long time around here and also a bunch of athletes.
Ryan Spangler and Cade Davis are playing on the scout team and they really help the intensity of the workout. Jamuni also was on it but didn't help the intensity.
Austin Reaves is the most vocal of the players in helping get guys in the right place. He is a very good drive and dish guy. I wasn't expecting to see him going to the paint as much as he did.
Doo looked like he did at the end of last year which is really good!
Brady is bigger than last year.
Kur is much bigger than last year and is very active. He had a great catch ahead of the pack on a bounce pass from Doo who nearly at half court. Caught it flushed it in stride. He will finish at the rim. Still needs to shoot the baby jumpers better.
Victor challenges every single shot and is an absolute pogo stick. He also easily finishes around the rim. Even saw him make a nice dribble drive for a bucket.
Jalen Hill looks very smooth and has tremendous size for a wing player. He doesn't look like he is working at all. He honestly didn't do much but looked like a player.
Harmon acts like a point guard. He is the only guy who isn't tall on the team and he has a great build.
AG is rail thin but he is very competitive and appears that he knows how to play basketball. He is long and tall. He is wing player. Everything points to a redshirt year but I'm not sure he looked to me like he can contribute.
We will see how good they actually are but I was pleased watching them just with the size and athleticism. We probably need more shooters but if Austin and Brady take the majority of the deep shots our percentage will be decent.
