Practice Video – Evelyn Speed

[Hawkeye Kev]

I can't tell if he's crazy-fast, or the rest of the team just isn't pushing it. Second video.

 

[twindman]

Looks to me like he was hustling and the others weren't.

 

[perryhawk]

Good stuff, guys are working hard, Bakari is showing some serious speed and conditioning.

 

[unoHawkeye]

Looks to me like he was hustling and the others weren't.

In which case, he’s providing some much needed senior leadership. Either way, happy to see it

 

[icwesthawk]

And it looks like his ankle is healed up

 

[Hawksfor3]

Good stuff, guys are working hard, Bakari is showing some serious speed and conditioning.

Looks like he wants to play.

 

[soowon]

It looks like the new coach is into it which is a great sign for the team. I can see Bakari starting at the point.

Assuming JBo is out, I've expected Evelyn to start at PG since the day he committed.

The last leg he is so far ahead that he has to look back to make sure that everyone else hadn't stopped so he wasn't running on his own.

Assuming JBo is out, I've expected Evelyn to start at PG since the day he committed.

Considering his experience, I’ve expected Evelyn to play a big role this year with JB out. He’ll be the only senior among frosh and sophs in the backcourt. But knowing how Fran likes ball control (Evelyn has had a 1:1 A/T ratio), I’ve expected that if his shooting has returned, he’ll have a good shot to start at SG over the frosh Fredrick.

New coach?

 

[ObeseMuffins]

Where's Joe Toussaint? Was hoping he'd be the fastest out there.

 

[jasonrann]

Doesn't matter to me. He is pushing and that is all that matters. Someone has to be "that guy". I have no problem with the new guy being the one doing it.

 

[SSG T]

New coach?

He has to be talking about Eldridge.

 

[CanadaHawk]

He has to be talking about Eldridge.

Eldridge is the recruiting coordinator. Billy Taylor replaced Andrew Francis.

 

[CO_hawk]

I'm just hoping that's not a sign of how poorly conditioned our guys are compared to other programs.

 

[Legend12]

Eldridge is the recruiting coordinator. Billy Taylor replaced Andrew Francis.

None of which explains his comment.

 

[SSG T]

Eldridge is the recruiting coordinator. Billy Taylor replaced Andrew Francis.

Ok, but Eldridge posted the video and soo said the new coach was into it...this L12's confusion, along with mine.

 

[HoustonREDHawk]

Senior leadership. Also, a few of the bigger guys are NOT fast.

 

[bdg8]

I'm just hoping that's not a sign of how poorly conditioned our guys are compared to other programs.

I am more concerned it is a sign we are just slow

 

[CP84]

Where's Joe Toussaint? Was hoping he'd be the fastest out there.

He's at the way end. Looks like he finished 2nd.

 

[CanadaHawk]

Toussaint is fast. So, if Evelyn is beating him out in a foot race, then that’s a pretty good sign that the guard court is taking a quick step forward.

 

[Stormn Norman]

Wow, those sprints were pretty pathetic with the exception of one Bakari.

 

[hawkfan1963]

Someone yells one more at the beginning of the clip. Maybe they had already done several and most were out of gas at that point.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Fran doesn’t exactly push it in practice

 

[Stormn Norman]

Someone yells one more at the beginning of the clip. Maybe they had already done several and most were out of gas at that point.

So Bakari either tanked it in the first half or he’s in way better condition and has that much more speed than the rest of the team... just a clip can’t do to much judging from it but dang! The other guys aren’t even close.

 

[TooTall25]

You know what Allan Iverson said....."it's practice, man".

 

[SSG T]

You know what Allan Iverson said....."it's practice, man".

We talkin bout practice...not a game, not a game, not a game, we talkin bout practice.

One of the best press conference "rants" in history, and one of the most misunderstood.

 

[MepoDawg#]

True about practice for a small few elite athletes. Most cannot just turn it on and off with ease. Better to practice hard to simulate game conditions then to get in the habit of dogging it.

 

[globalhawk]

Guys like this help us get better on defense. Attitude.

 

[BIG Bick]

On a purely personal note... I always hated running stairs !!
