I was worried about Coach. I am so glad the FF is in the D in 2009. Going to be an awesome year for the hoops squad. Thanks for the answer. I was worried about Coach.

The outfits were funny, and Idong Ibok and Marquise Gray can really dance, can’t they? The dunk session they had was also entertaining. Durrell Summers was quite impressive in that regard, and Gray always seems more athletic in that environment than in a game.Goran Suton did look to be in a bit better shape than last year, as was previously mentioned here. I was hoping to see a little (and by little I mean ANY) more beef on Tom Herzog’s bones, however. I agree that Ibok looked comfortable inside, even on the offensive end.Kalin Lucas had some really nice plays at the point, and sure hasn’t lost any speed over the summer. He’s looking extremely confident, and the point position will be in very good hands with him this year. I was very impressed with Korie Lucious as well, more so than with either of the other two new Spartans. He’s pretty small, but at times he looked even faster than Lucas.Both Isaiah Dahlman and Chris Allen were taking shots from the outside, and while a few fell, neither looked entirely comfortable in assuming that role from Neitzel last year. I do agree, though, the Dahlman’s shot looked less forced than last year, so maybe there’s hope.I was encouraged to see Delvon Roe make a good introductory showing, though he certainly looked to be taking it a bit easy. Any idea how much weight Draymond Green has lost since early last spring? He’s got a bit to go in my estimation, but he’s looking pretty good. I thought the program was alright.

The details escape me. He definitely looked and sounded good, though. Coach Heathcote talked about the 1979 team. The details escape me. He definitely looked and sounded good, though.
