Does anyone even know when they play/practice (other than player's friends and families?)It's always hush hush when it comes to summer
I have some info but as someone pointed out, the summer is pretty barren:bump
If anyone on here has seen the team work out or practice this summer, please share your insight with us.
What I no of from what my son has shared with me and my communication with a couple coaches team is really coming alone. Williams weight is down from were he was when he1st got to Purdue. Kid can really pass and handle the ball like a guard and is a really good rebounder. Dow gonna be very helpful defensively offense will come alone and he can actually shoot it a bit. Eric gonna be good quick can shoot it and handle the rock Aaron look out that kid as we all can see is a freak athlete but can shoot the ball well and handle it well enough to get to the basket Sasha definitely has slimmed down and obviously is a sharp shooter somewhat athletic himself Evan is good really good can shoot tje3 ball very physical and gonna be a problem trying to keep of the boards. Cline will be ready to step up and make his presence felt doing what aeniorsdo I see him making more of an impact than what some of u may think. Haarms gonna be a problem got good mid range game set mean screens and can shoot the 3 as well. Carsten is carsen he knows what he gotta do this season and he’s ready for that challenge. Nojel well what time in the off season can do for you. As I stated awhile ago he’s been putting in major major work in the gym while he was home for the 5 weeks he was here and I must say he looking good his shot that is and FTs. When he went back for summer school and summer workouts he came back 12 pounds lighter and leaner a lot more in shape now a lean 220. Got back in the gym with the managers while he worked out a lot on his own with a workout routine that a trainer i no gave to him to do and it’s an intense workout. Coaches pitched in as well but what Nojel needed was time to himself with me helping him and soon after he started mentally gaining his confidence back and also tweaked some things in his shot that it looks quite different than what you saw. His main focus this season is stepping up being another leader on this team and with that he is ready to help this very talented team win a lot of games. There is an article or 2 out there about my so google it will tell you what he has been doing this summer I’m excited about this team they are gonna be a aleeeper team nobody gonna wanna play by big ten play starts.Does anyone even know when they play/practice (other than player's friends and families?)
No offense, but outside of about 3-4 defenders in the entire country next season at that height, Carsen would abuse a 6'7 player. It would essentially be a team's 4 guarding Carsen. I would take an opposing team's 4 guarding Carsen every day of the week.What do you see as ce's role w this team?
I expect opponents to put their quickest 6-7 ish defender. Forcing him to go even further out to get shots off!
So ce needs to improve his mid range game...getting shots off n finding open teammates!
At the end last year teams played os people tight man n n ce was only one able to drive past his man...only to be riden into a bigger defender at the basket! Leading to more missed shots n turnovers! He'll need to be a facilitator for teammates vs a shot creator for himself!
Yes I still think haarms is our toughest person to match up with!
Quicker than most bigs n when opponents put a 6'7ish defender on him 8" advantage...Wow!
High low w haarms, Williams, ebx, wheeler is going to be hard to deal with!
I think it will be different from game to game, but for the most part I would expect teams to take the "don't let Carsen beat us" approach. This would mean running him off the 3pt line and providing helpside when he undoubtedly blows by the closeout defender. I think this defensive strategy will actually be better for us, because Carsen will make the smart play and dish it to the open man. I have faith that whoever the open man is will nail the shot, or dunk it home. For this reason, I expect Carsen's scoring numbers to be similar to last year, but I expect his assists to get to the 4.5/gm range.What do you see as ce's role w this team?

I don't think you surprised any of us with what you wrote...you just cemented it more. So happy to hear that Nojel's shot has made progress.What I no of from what my son has shared with me and my communication with a couple coaches team is really coming alone.

Purdue as always will see some zone and man...and depending on how effective Purdue is against either will dictate what is played that game. I will be surprised if a zone is played most the game against Purdue. I also don't think junk defenses are as effective in college as high school...except for a very short duration. College teams have more people that can make a basket and understand the game better than high school players.I also expect the opponents w play more zone if not posting haarms n alot of box n 1 n other gadget defense's!
Just smart basketball!
you could see that he was more athletic than I think most thought...I was going to start a thread yesterday just to add something to talk about. I was thinking that this years team and next years team will end up being very athletic type players. I was going to ask everyone to rank each player based on athleticism and then shut it down thinking it would be stupid.
Anyway, one thing that cough my eye watching what I could during the WUG was that Sasha is a lot more athletic than some give him credit for. He was sold as someone that could develop into a DM type player but my first reaction was he could end up being much better due to his ability to get to the rim. Treed commented on it as well. Not sure if she was surprised, or had noticed it lately.
I hear the new IU transfer hit 10,000 out of 10,013 3’s during a drill.
Does that count?
I’m not sure what you are implying but sir I no my son is working strategically on his game in game situations game speed everything that translates to basketball. So yes you can In one season change many things about your game when you are working on them every single day. Like I said confidence changes a lot when ur mind set is clear now and you no you gonna play minutes. He continues to put in a lot of work not just his shooting but his entire game and sir when season begins mentally focused and very confident in his game. 4 months season will be here than many will see what my son has been doingI’m glad guys are working on their game and improving their shot but it’s rare to find someone who goes from struggling to proficient in one offseason.
Playing ball in the gym during the summer is a lot different than playing when the TV cameras go on in October.
It’s like the difference between hitting balls on the range and actually playing on the course.
You have to just excuse bonefish. He understands basketball about as much as a goldfish understands physics.I’m not sure what you are implying but sir I no my son is working strategically on his game in game situations game speed everything that translates to basketball.

In one year, Cuonzo is famous to Purdue fans for dramatically changing his 3-pt shot. Haas went from 54% to 71% with his FTs in one year. He was at 76% as a senior. PJ went from 28% to >40% on his 3-pt shot in one year. Over his 4 years, Dakota went from 32% to 47% on his 3-pt shot. It's not that rare.I’m glad guys are working on their game and improving their shot but it’s rare to find someone who goes from struggling to proficient in one offseason.

Have not herd how the players look during the summer pick up games
Would love to hear your thoughts for those that have heard or have seen

There is an article or 2 that just came out about my son gives you a sneak peak what he has been doing this summer. One the athletic wrote one and another one Nojel living in the moment kinda give you an idea what my son has been doing and still doing this summer. I just don’t no how to share the linkYou are correct improvements can be made in one off season. Just use Cuonzo Martin as an example. Freshman year 0 of 1 from 3; Soph year 0 of 6 from 3; Jr. year 88 of 196 (45%) from 3; and Sr. year 91 of 194 (47%). So that is a BIG yes to improvements can be made in one off-season! I love your son's potential this year and throughout his career both here and at the next level!!
