Thanks for sharing. I'll have to watch it in full later.

But hilarious comments in the first minute of the video by guys behind the camera...

Guy #1... "Dunkings gotta hurt your hand so bad"
Guy #2... "I don't have a lot of experience..."

Hopefully, they find a way to get Coons on the floor. He's freaky athletic. He dunks with such ease.

In the video, shooting could be better as a team. Hopefully, that's not a concern moving forward. It's just one video so it obviously doesn't mean a whole lot, but I didn't see much from the transfers or TT. The pg transfer looks quick but had a hard time putting the ball in the hoop.

It was the first baby step so to say and you can’t judge or predict anything this early. But you have to love the effort they were giving.

Nice! Been sick and needed that. :) I watched a lot of the practice footage yesterday, and what I saw I liked. I'm looking for good things from Tater and Coop.

They look fast. But for real, lots of active hands. A few of the guys look like they can play above the rim. We know Howard can.

I could see Sage making some all conf team this season. Think he'll be the breakout player. Like what I see from Jirak. Think he'll be a solid 10-14 min guy. The big guy doesn't seem to look for his offense much. Still just a first look. I'm sure he'll contribute in a number of ways especially a post presence on defense.

Love the defense, rotations and communication. Hopefully offense will.come. I just can't believe the speed of the game.

For those of you that remember Prime Time League, this ain't it.

I am not worried about the offense at all.

You mean, "hopefully Coon is able to earn some minutes"

With Ben at the helm, I'm pretty confident that this team will be "good" - like 20 wins, make the Dance good, Can they be "very good", like ranked, top 1/3 of the B1G? I think they can!

I think they will have balanced scoring and, in Ben Y2, even better defense - especially with a big guy guarding the rim.

I thought it was impressive to see Coon guarding the pg. He might be setting himself up to be like Banks being able to guard multiple positions.
