Austin Conway looks good in the scrimmage

Was super impressed with three people: Naughton, Moemeka, and Aka Gorski. Barnes looked better too. This team looks ahead of where I thought they'd be

I went for the last half and left impressed. I was disappointed to not see Justin James playing. Anyone know why he wasn't playing.

Sounds like a nagging ankle injury.

My question for those who went, who plays and who get redshirted?

Jeremy Liebermans private basketball tutor, Clint Parks, just gave Jordan Naughton some twittery love...

"Jordan Naughton gonna have a lot of coaches in SoCal scratching their heads in a couple years he's gonna be a good one for Wyoming"

"Everyone knows bigs take longer to develop Jordan Naughton just turned 18 few weeks ago best basketball way ahead of him"

"Everyone want a finished product that's what coaching is all about find a kid with some pieces and help him put it together"

"It's easy to sit up and talk about the negative things a kid does on the court coach him up make his weakness strengths that's a real coach"

Dude I love how Parks says things like "coaches are gonna wonder how they let him go" referring to James in Florida and Naughton in Cali.

Before too long coaches will see that Shyatt offered a kid and decide to jump all over him too.

Man, Conway is as fast as advertised! When he took off on a fast break he just blew by everyone!

He really is lightning out there. I was impressed with his speed as well as his build. He was much more stout than I was expecting. I was worried as short as he is he may not be able to drive or create his own shot as he could be pushed around but he looks like he will be just fine.

I am having a very hard time containing my excitement. I truly think this team will compete this year and these youngsters will have the hard knocks but will be in the thick of things come February/March.

I take it both of you guys were at the scrimmage. Good to hear about Conway. I was under the impression that Washington and Lieberman would get most of the time at the point to start the year but maybe Conway will get more time than I thought.

From what you guys saw at the scrimmage do you think Conway looks like he will be getting a decent amount of minutes to start the year?

I think Lieberman and Washington will play until they prove they don't deserve the minutes. I'd expect to see Conway in garbage minutes or even him to redshirt

Physically there's no doubt he can play right now. I'm not sure if he's mentally ready to run the point for the Pokes (which isn't a knock on him, I just think he'll need some time to adjust)

Austin Conway was on the Zone last week. Here's the interview.

He's a very mature, well spoken, young man.

LOL, Gagliardi's "highlights" were literally nothing but missed shots and bad passes.

Herndon had a nice ally-oop. Hayden Dalton blocked Josh Adams. Those were the two most impressive plays that I saw in the second 1/2 of the scrimmage. and Momemka had a put back dunk after the whistle was blown, but was still cool. No video of this, of course, so use your imaginations :lol:

Moemka's block on Dalton was pretty sick too... Incredibly athletic and impressive

Very impressive! Love the athleticism. Why the heck was Papa Shy wearing a skirt though?
