Maybe this will lift spirits

[Just a VolinTears]

Yes, heartbreak for the BaseVols last night, but just remember, we will all get to witness one last season and one last dance with Santiago Vescovi this year. Just a little reminder amid a hard time!

Vescovi, Knecht & Mashack working on quick release 3’s…Mashack’s shot looks to have much more arc, at least in this video.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

I am expecting a Josh Richardson type leap for Mashack this year. His potential is exciting.

 

[Caculator]

One last year with JJJ as well

Interesting they practice from about 3’ behind the line?

Very common, most schools have adopted a 4pt line to encourage that

Yep, you set up further out to open up the offense.

 

[VOLfrombama]

And to show NBA scouts you can transition to their line

Encourages good spacing. Quite a few teams have resorted to it

Following Aidoo on instagram, majority of what he posted was him working on his 3 pt (was making them too)

With a lineup of

ZZ
Santi
Knecht
JJJ
Aidoo

All five are capable of hitting the 3, which is exciting.

Honestly, I would prefer our center be working on his post game and making layups/short bank shots instead of trying to be a shooting guard.

Welcome to basketball in 2023

I think there's a place for a post game in today's college basketball. Hey, live by the 3, die by the 3. Having a bit of balance would be nice.

He posted several videos of that type of work too, but i thought it was nice to see him working on the long game too

Dunks and 3’s is analytically where things are going to/have been going to…Aidoo is solid on the oops, if he can continue to get a bit stronger and be a legit 38% type guy on open 3’s that will really open things up. Ledlum is probably going to be the best “post” type guy we have, if Aidoo can step out that will allow the both of them to play together.

I thought Baseball team did well. Not disappointed at all. They disappointed last year by not making CWS

This baseball team making it to Omaha was a minor miracle...Probably Vitello's best coaching job...

It’s kind of funny/ironic to me…something tells me if Barnes had a preseason Top 3 team that struggled during the year, got hot and made a run in the postseason but still failed to make the F4 that you’d have many of the same bashers using it as ammo and calling for his retirement…yet Tony gets applauded.

Again, I’m not saying I disagree with it being a good/great coaching job, wasn’t my point, just the irony/difference between the two perceptions.

That arc just might be a very good thing.

CTV has just set the bar so high right out the gate. Only a matter of time before we find ourselves in the championship series

But that same thing could be said with Barnes and E8 or F4, he keeps trotting out Top 15-20 teams and continues to make the NCAAT as a high seed…

Yeah, but there have also been posters dogging CTV in the baseball forum this year, inluding in the postseason, not as many as in the infamous "sorry it's getting old/Barnes discussion" thread, but there are also less posters in that forum. Think that every season we don't make a final 4 in any sport there will be detractors. Plus, I think many recognized that the #2 ranking was inflated since essentially all of the position players from last year were drafted.

I admittedly haven’t ever ventured over there, just going off what I see in this forum/Twitter/Facebook/talk around town which has seemingly just about all been how amazing of a job Tony did and how much this team overachieved etc etc.
