Fredrick led us off today. Said his foot is fine. Said that process was two or three weeks off it, then on a bike for a bit and now back. Said he feels great. Said they have tried to be not to high or not too low heading into the season.
Said the freshman have been really good. Said Murray twins have length and can play multiple positions. Said the guards are really smart and quick.

Talked to Wieskamp next. He said he has gotten stronger and that was important and something he learned from last year. He just needed to be stronger and play stronger. Said having Jordan back gives them another deep threat. More opportunities for everyone else. Asked Joe what was more nervous shooting a last second shot or asking his girlfriend to get married....he said popping the question.:) He said that he and Luka and Jordan all came back to win a title.

Nunge is up now. Said his knee feels great. Did a lot of work with the trainer and got stronger. Asked how strange it was to basically not play for two years now. Said it taught him a lot about adversity. Said his teammates have helped lift him up from a confidence perspective. Said going up against Luka every day in practice has been great. He's the hardest worker. Said everyone is excited about games against UNC and Gonzaga.
