Gottfried gives summer practice update

We’re back from our PI summer sabatical and wow did we miss a lot. Football is right around the corner, guys are winning gold medals and basketball is starting to ramp up. One thing we were excited to hear was Mark Gottfried give this summer update on the team.

Gott talks about how they’ve worked on individual improvement, team improvement, and also team culture. Culture is not something you hear a ton about from coaches, but its something they try very hard to establish in the offseason. The culture created can dictate the way a team practices, the way a team gels, and the way a team plays when they get on the floor in November.

The segment also sheds a little light on the roster and says Dennis Smith Jr is almost ready to go, Terry Henderson is ready to go and Lenard Freeman has not worked out with the team because of his knee surgery. Gottfried mentions that the 3 freshmen are not enrolled yet so they too have not participated.
