Figured it would not look so good if I shared this info first. It was mentioned at the meet the coach event.

Congrats Maria, hurry back!!!

Joking...mb-jr...simply forgot to mention that we were once again reassured that Maria is returning and her child had arrived. As I was a late arrival (to the Q&A), this was second hand info.

Hopefully someone can relate more of what was discussed...offense, defense, player rotation, obtaining/retaining the correct players, etc.

Seth mentioned that his three most common comments/suggestions/complaints are:

1)center court logo, 2)Lisa Harrison jersey, 3)conference champ banner.

Coach Shumate gave a nod to Jeff Metcalfe for his great reporting work.

Lisa greeted me with a friendly hug/embrace and Jen and I traded our obligatory friendly barbs. Gia, check your e-mail for more details.

Suicides (running lines) in practice was brought up, and Shu commented that he likes to condition with ball in hand. For example 11-man drill (3 man weave to a 3 on 2 break ran up and down the court.

Previously it was mentioned that we couldn't afford both SEA assistants being pursued. Lately it sounds like our assistants will have rhyming names!
