I feel like we don't give enough credit to Coach VanDyke. Injuries have been way down since he's been here and our players have all transformed their bodies and have become more athletic. Kudos to coach!
That Geo dunk just flat out doesn't happen without him. He did not have those hops freshman year. He is so much more explosive

Yeah and in the EJ era we had guys dropping like flies. Pike made this a priority when he came over here and it is another reason he just "gets it." Pike knew what it takes to build a program from the ground up. Kudos to Hobbs for seeing that.

I couldn't agree more! He, Rich Campbell and Randi Larsen continue to be the unsung heros behind the scenes...helping to improve the team in ways that most will never know or even think about.

Dave is excellent.When Geo was injured he was running, shooting lightly with his right hand and using a jumping machine that Dave uses. Geo was exploding off of it which I think led to his dunking being much improved. Dave has so many different things that the players practice on. He really is an excellent coach.
