First official practice

[Kemba'sYogurt]

Saw on a couple player's social medias that today was the first day of practice. This is the only place I've seen any mention of it. Anyone know if it is indeed today?

And if so, anyone have any insight on what's going on inside that practice?

Thanks!

Come on @Chief00 what are we paying you for?

Yup, today’s the first day of practice. That’s presumably why Borges is there.

Elderly parent responsibility today. First practice is usually just a lot of running and rebounding drills.

Quite frankly, not Chief being Chief, but you need to demonstrate better management after last season. Plenty of time to order and deliver shoulder brace since surgery.

I eagerly await James Doran's ascent to the position of "Most Criticized Member of the Staff," replacing Travis.

I am also looking forward to seeing the same rant about the concussion protocol posted 65 times over the course of the season.

Very stupid stuff for a first practice IMO

Seems a bit worrisome.

“Physically demanding” is different than “physical”.

I always thought JC believed if you didn’t puke first practice it wasn’t a successful practice.

I imagine that, with the ROTC, they did completely different movements and exercises; movements they're not used to performing. And it's the first practice, so their bodies aren't warmed up at all. This kind of stuff is exactly what leads to injury.

Practice 3 would've been just fine. Not seeing the point of it on day 1.

This is the kid that you and many others had pegged as our best player that was better than Jalen as our lead guard.

Theyre literally just taking precaution. Relax

would you just shut up already?

Came to this thread expecting to read uplifting posts about the start of the new season.
Read:
Criticism of KO and practice regimen.
Hand-wringing about potential first day injuries.
Expression of foreboding regarding sat player.
Insult regarding anticipation of sat player's acumen.

You miserable bastards.

A) Find the posts where I said that, please.

B) Explain how this has anything to do with skill level and ability to fit in as a lead guard.

The team has already been doing workouts with ROTC over the summer

Their bodies aren't warmed up? Have they been hibernating? But it would have been OK on day three? Am I missing something and this is a parody post?
