You can cycle through the pictures here.

Looking good! Glad the team is coming together. Gotta get some chemistry going. Lots of new faces.

Good stuff. Couple of observations:

1. Diarra has a good frame and looks more lean/built than I remember seeing him last year.
2. Isn't Whaley on campus? He seemed MIA.

Oh, word. Yeah, I can't even see those haha. I'm running a really old version of instagram on my phone.

It's good now that the casual fan can start to see the difference I had been ranting about for the last couple years. No more academic theories about S&C, discussed endlessly. Lots of free weights and hands on kick butt.

Serious looking man, I like this!

As a semi-casual fan, I'm impressed.

S&C coach looks like a dude. Would not mess with him.

Yep no nonsense much needed!

While on the topic of S&C, Coach Travis is now the Director of Athletic Performance Training for Second Baptist School in Houston, TX: Strength and Conditioning Camp

Probably a good fit, as I recall his faith base philosophies were what connected KO and Travis - more so than accomplishments in major male sports.

 

[Chief00]

Serious core work there.

Music to my ears - no longer gymnastics and academic nonsense! A man's World now!

 

[Chief00]

Serious core work there.

Imagine if Brimah had done this for 4 years - he would have been able to catch the ball!

No Whaley training w them yet.

I met some new football players today up in Storrs. They are taking part in Orientation and I gave them a little pep talk to fire them up. I hope the Freshmen's skills match their confidence. Randy will take care of that LOL very quickly. But, it was a lot of fun and it's amazing how the football vibe has changed - so positive now. I hope to do the same with basketball at some point.

Yes, please do. That will make the difference between a good and mediocre season. At least you are consistently insufferable.

Big thanks. Here's to hoping talk translates to work in the weight room, team meetings and around the clock dedication to UConn football.

It's a start.

I hope they are working out like this regularly behind closed doors. Not just when someone is filming for social media. Regardless, nice to see the kids getting better and building chemistry.

The legend grows. Bravisimo.

No doubt about it, these guys are willing to work hard. Definitely a positive to build on.

Nah, you can catch or you can't (good hands or crappy hands).

Having said that, a great drill and conditioning excersize no doubt.

Looks like we have a S&C coach that will put some meat on our bigs. No more of the yoga nonsense
