Eric Cobb looks different

[Son of Robert]

I commend him on losing all the weight, he looks to be in great shape for running up and down the court, he doesn't exactly look all that muscular though.

It has been my experience that big ol' boys, if they are strong to begin with, then really get in shape, they do not lose any of their power/strength. They just hone it, define it, and even add more. Plus, he's not trying to move around that 35 pounds that's not there anymore.

SJ, in this picture look at his shoulders and his arms, they are seriously big, Eric is a powerful dude. Plus having all this new core strength which really positively affects everything. It's gonna translate to the court, hope it translates to defense. With this mojo he's got going in his head and his new basketball body, if he has tightened up his game some, he must have a real good shot at starting at the 4.

Hopefully not your cheesburger and pizza weight loss plan.

Better than Warde's "cheeseburgers in paradise" conference realignment plan.

love that he's bought in, considering his past. If he's in, Jalen's 100% in - look out. It doesn't take much for a group of kids to turn it around if they want to

Good for Cobb - hopefully it will translate to a solid season for him.

Calhoun - So he will still hold a consulting position at UConn, that's good.

He's taking pride in this, you love to see that.

Would be great to see Whaley and Diarra show that same scale reading courtesy of the weight program.

At 6'1" and 245 I must have more muscle (I think it's muscle) than Cobb, he's too punny.

So you’re saying that he’s not as strong as you and that he’s too much of a cunning linguist?

 

[Huskybass]

Cobb at 226. That is an impressive transformation.

As in he lost 2% of his body fat, not that he's down to 2%
