Just as long as the ankles aren't his! How about Nicholson?Ty breaking some ankles.
Thanks, I appreciate the update. (Who is Gus by the way?)Say hi if you see me, I'll be the guy in the Northwestern hoodie.
Big Matt looks like he’s about 45 in the team photo.He’s missing a lot of interior passes and working on a little turn around from the free throw line. Low percentage so far, but I’d expect to see it in games.
I thought Matt's shooting touch from 10-12 feet looked good in the pick and roll drills for the big guys. I suspect he has worked hard at it.Just as long as the ankles aren't his! How about Nicholson?

It looks like they've been running those drills a fair bit for him, Keenan, and Luke.I thought Matt's shooting touch from 10-12 feet looked good in the pick and roll drills for the big guys. I suspect he has worked hard at it.

I'm sure the dynamic will change a lot once Brooks joins in, but from what we saw yesterday I think Ty will spend a lot of the offense without the ball, moving around the arc for a three on the third pass.Ty Berry looked ready to go and I believe he will be a focal point of the offense. I thought Clayton looked improved and Chris Collins had some praise for Mullins. Nicholson moves really well for a big guy. I just wish he had a better touch on his shots, although he did show a little half hook with his left hand that could help. I don't expect much immediate help from the Frosh. This team will go as far as the veterans and two transfers will take us, and we can't afford injuries to key guys that we managed to survive last year.
Something to keep an eye on, to be sure, but I would chalk this up to just working on his timing now after being out of action for a while.The worst part of the practice for me, really, was just Matt flubbing so many of the passes to him on the move. There were some optimistic (bad) efforts to get him the ball, but there were several solid into-his-hands throws and he didn't capitalize on most of them. We need that to change by next week, imho. But even there, he was moving really well for a guy recovering from a foot injury earlier this year.
Too funny.......Angelo looked 'the most' lost of the guys and I'm pretty sure I heard Collins say something to him like 'I know you don't know the plays, but try...'.
Oops, now I want to be clear that Collins was encouraging him, I just don't remember the specific advice he gave him to try. Maybe something about going over the pick instead of under? I'm not sure.Too funny.......
