No point in having the guys go 7 on 5 this early in the season.

I think 3G was overheard saying he didn't want to embarrass any of the guys by having them in tears in front of the fans.

I attended the clinic on Saturday and it was a blast. There were three main parts...
1)A 2.5 hour practice
2)A meet and greet with players/coaches over pizza.
3)Tour of facilities and an opportunity to watch the recruiting video shown to prospective recruits.

I will be happy to answer any questions to the best of my ability. FVV and TK played like they did in the NCAA tournament. Practice was intense and bodies were flying everywhere. I was very surprised by D. Carter's scoring ability. He is long and athletic. He runs the floor very well and has a high offensive ability.

I talked briefly with most players but had the opportunity to talk with Shaq for approximately 10 minutes. Nice kid. He had a tough practice and was a tad bit embarrassed. Not surprising, he is a 2k fan and likes to run with the Heat/Lebron. For many reasons, he is being compared to JT Durley.

Facilities and Recruiting Video... Top Notch... Incredible.... Wishing I had eligibility and could play at their level....

Fun quote of the day... "He is an underrated 3-star and I wouldn't be surprised if he is an all-American by the time he leaves".... Since I am not sure the on rules, I will not name that person who said this... Guess the player...

Other quotes... HCGM - "In the states, we rebound with two hands"

I liked: "Tekele, don't get cute. He's in the right spot. It's not his fault he's 5'4"." Referencing throwing it in to the high post as they were practicing their new zone defense.

Kelly? By the way, does anyone have any clue why my "enter" button doesn't work when I post? It's not my keyboard--the button works in other applications. Thanks for any suggestions--I like paragraphs and I'm sure you appreciate them too...

That was funny... How tall do you think JR Simon is? He reminds me of Craig Stevens; but twice as fast.

Thanks for the report, Smooth. Could you break down what the recruiting video is like?

Yes, Devon Smith showed us the recruiting video. When he turned it on, it appeared that there was an overall WSU video, one for PG's, Combo G/F, and PF/C. We were shown the overall WSU video. It was a highlight montage that went to the big plays/ESPN footage and locker room pep speeches. It started with a view of Koch Arena at it best and a look back and past players then progressed to VCU and Malcolm draining the mid-range J to win. It gave the BB footage of HCGM talking about WSU fans and Koch arena (the hardworking Wichita quote). It again progressed through the season and showed many NCAA tournament game highlights chronologically including the pre-game and half-time pep talks. The entire video had background music. The same music generally used in the pregame videos for the last few years. I think it ended with a #watchus. I don't do it justice but it was pretty good. A few of the low grade highlights (Thanks Cox 22) lowered to absolute quality. Very motivational- estimated 6 minutes long.
