2014 Pick-Up Games

[shocksrbest]

I briefly ran into Gregg & Lynn yesterday at the Air Capital Classic. He was smiling ear to ear as we talked about the talent and depth of this years rooster. Of course he didn't go into detail, however he alluded that early in the process there is no reason to believe that expectations shouldn't change from the past two years. He was almost giddy. Is it October yet?

If Gregg is feeling that way this early in the process, I can only imagine how he will feel come the start of the season--barring any injuries before hand. Loving it.

It figures the first week I can get to practice Baker and FVV won't be there. Oh well, just gives a better look at the new guys.

Are the practice times available?

Are the practice times available?

The NCAA permits organized team practices, during the summer. I belive the practices are limited to two hours per week, but I am not sure. Generally outsiders are not permitted to observe. However, there is an invitation to attend process, but I do not know it. It is my understanding that anyone may receive an invitation, but they are limited. If you are interested, I suggest you visit the basketball office and inquire about the process. It is too easy to tell you "no" on the phone.

There is not a limit on pick-up games. In theory, the coaching staff is not directly involved. Currently, pick-up games begin in late afternoon. Generally, the games begin around 4:00 P.M. to 4:30 P.M. However, start times may vary a great deal. Sometimes you might arrive and the games have been completed or the games were not played that day. It is strictly a pot luck matter, unless you have inside information from a player or staff member.

Here are a couple of matters to consider. The arena doors are locked at 5:00 P.M. After closing, you will not be asked to leave. Sometimes games are not played on Friday afternoons. Boys night out ahead. Games might be played on the main court or practice court. So be sure to check both locations. For the purists, I believe the main court is properly called Devlin Court, but I am not sure. If landmarks are not named after me, such as Rio Court or RDR Court, I do not keep up with it.

One more item. Cold was shooting a video, but the players disapproved. So he stopped. Do not plan to take photos or videos without player approval.

Are the practice times available?

They are not, and to clarify, RDR's comments about Cold's attendance are at the scrimmages. Practices are practices. IF you happen to be in CKA and wander into a practice instead of a scrimmage, please do not stay. When you are seen, you will be asked to leave. The way you'll know the difference? If you don't see coaches, then it's a scrimmage. If you see any coaches, get out. I'm sure everyone understands why.

I don't even know how to speak hyperbolese.

Ohhh, it's a language! I thought it was yet another college bole game that KU didn't get to play in.

This is something I have ALWAYS been curious about. Thanks for the heads up! Gonna start trying my luck now.

Has anybody viewed any pick-up sessions? Can anybody fill us in as to what's going on in Koch Arena in the late afternoons?

Pick up games

Finals were over last week, so most of the players went home for a short vacation. The coaches have been on the recruiting trail this month when there are a lot of AAU games. The players will be back sometime in Aug, perhaps another week or two & the pick up games will then resume. I'm sure we'll hear about it form Paul Suellentrop when they resume practices.

What are the chances they'll have a pickup game Monday?

[Ricardo del Rio]

This will pick you up.
