Hoopsfest and Scrimmage

Link here. I tell you - read Hewitt's quotes. That is the most positive he has been in awhile. He was pretty harsh right after the first practice. Now he seems to be piling on the kudos. Well, he knows the team better than anyone, so whatever you say Coach!

Here are some things he had to say about the freshman - all except the defense:

"They're bright. They're picking up things probably a little quicker than I expected them to," said Hewitt. "The reason for that is probably that we have veteran guys who can talk them through things on the court. They are able to help them when they see breakdowns.

"They're all displaying at different times, abilities to help us. Zam and Anthony have started to shoot the ball very well. Jeremis has surprised us with his ability to shoot the ball. All of them need to work on their defense. That's the one thing that is glaring. In order for them to make significant contributions, they need to be able to guard, and I tell them that all the time."

And check out the end of the article, where it lists all the media coverage some of the players are going to be getting.
Luke in SI, ESPN the Mag, Sporting news, Isma'il in a video feature, campus visits by Jay Bilas and Andy Katz. Luke REALLY seems to be a focus.

Also note that we have added two walk-ons to the team.
