First Practice

[NJHoops]

More like “first practice” because there are different levels of first in these days of year round college basketball, but here we are!

That corner 3 from Clingan looked too smooth. He might’ve been serious when he said he’s always taking it if he’s open.

I don't remember Sanogo being on any of the All American teams. Was he? He was an AP Honorable Mention. Maybe he's up there for being Final Four MOP?

I think he was AP Honorable Mention AA

Yes, I said that (see the post you responded to). Does Honorable Mention get you on the wall? I didn't think that was the case. Is Gordon up there? He was AP Honorable Mention in 2004. So was Khalid in 1999 and Josh Boone in 2005. I'm sure we've had a bunch of AP Honorable Mention AA.

Now I'm curious what the criteria is. Must be either All American or Final Four MOP.

Bouknight was also an AP Honorable Mention more recently

What's funny is that in the videos the players react like little 'Hurley's', demonstratively cheering/encouraging their teammates and expressing joy after good plays. It looks like they are having fun . . . . . in practice!

This team will be special, I feel it.

Oops. Read it too fast

Notice Katz didnt mention Castle once. But seems high on Solo. Knowing how good we expect Steph to be I take this as a great thing. Solo is huge for that bench to impact

Great to finally see some Jaylin Stew in the vid.

Lol ..angry giant

Most revealing part of this video is Coach Young shaking his head in approval. Coaches generally hide that expression, especially the first couple of practices.

He sees something he likes and can't help himself.

How he brushed his teeth first.

Maybe they just delivered in a tub of Husky Tracks for post-practice dessert

Nice to see Mamadou's knees are good enough for some level of practice work these days
