A quick glimpse of a drill where Sanogo spins inside and whips it out to Karaban for a 3. Keep running that one.

This team is going to be stupid good. Cannot wait for November

Going to be way better than people think.

 

[Vancat]

Yay! Sumpthin' new to talk about!

 

[rollskies]

Andre Johnson sighting in there. Looks like we’re still waiting on Clingan, Alleyne, and Hendry. Can’t wait to see more of the summer content so I can wildly overreact to one minute long videos.

Where was Johnson? Was he #14?

Yes I believe 14 is Johnson

 

[kansashusky]

I am such a sucker for these videos. Keep them coming!

 

[HuskyWarrior611]

Things were love to see.

Sanogo working on passing from the paint drills (yes hammer that all summer)

Andre Jackson quick shooting and driving drills.

They improve in those areas to become complete players and this team is scary scary good. Going to be hard to find a better perimeter than Newton, Hawkins, and AJax to go along with one of the best big in the country.

 

[Billy Bob]

I have this feeling Karaban will be starting at some point this season

 

[Ratso]

we need Samson on the floor

 

[RichCTBB]

Looks like Natty #5 is on the horizon.

 

[Fairfield_1st]

Definitely natty #5. I think we shot 100% in that video, a tremendous improvement over last season.

 

[Umami Zen]

Let's fill out the roster first before Natty predictions.

I love November! But I try to temper my expectations and excitement until Big East play.

I see him as a huge wildcard who could start/be a major contributor... or just get spot minutes if Hurley is playing a frontcourt of Jackson, Johnson, Sanogo for extended minutes with success. It depends on his defense and if he makes shots...I know he's a shooter but sometimes freshmen shooters can still put up bad percentages.

And at this point I think the same could be equally said about Johnson getting less minutes than Karaban. I really don't think anyone not on the staff/seeing them in practice every day can venture an assumption either way.

It’s hard to imagine a high 100 recruit freshman outplaying a top 60 sophomore player with experience. But I don’t care who steps ups as long as someone does at the 4.

I hear ya, but with Johnson being fairly inexperienced there's a chance that Karaban is ahead of him developmentally at the start of the year (even though Johnson might have the higher long term upside).

Well, we all know that those rankings are etched in stone tablets by the hand of God, and passed down by the High Priests of High School Player Evaluation, so I hear you.

Karaban was rated around 60 and Johnson in the 30’s

Johnson couldn't touch the floor his freshman year. There's a pretty high likelihood he was poorly evaluated coming out of HS. I hope that's not true, but thinking otherwise seems like sticking your head in the sand.
