Practice update from Rick Pitino

You can check out the whole report here, but the highlight is Pitino's player-by-player review.

Terrence Williams - Injured, will return in three weeks.

 

Andre McGee – In great shape and a defensive killer.  Must cut down on his turnovers.

 

Will Scott – Has not practiced – injured hamstring.

 

Edgar Sosa – Pushing the fast break with precision passing. Still needs to improve weak side defense.

 

Earl Clark – Rounding into shape.  Working extremely, extremely hard to be the best he can be.

 

Jerry Smith – The major stick out. Working well at all phases.  Jerry has consistently looked good in practice.

 

Preston Knowles – Playing hard but like Dre’, must cut down on his turnovers.

 

Reggie Delk – The one silver lining with T. Will’s injury.  Probably playing second best to Jerry. Gaining confidence.

 

Samardo Samuels – Needs Terrence Jennings to return for competition.  Not getting enough defense to make him better. Working hard but has a lot to learn.  Pleased with his work ethic.

 

Terrence Jennings – Has not practiced, (turf toe) should return Wednesday.

 

Jared Swopshire – Talent on the offense, liability on defense.  Must get stronger and more aggressive on defense. Will get it. Great attitude.

 

Kyle Kuric – Needs work on his ball handling.  But improving with each practice.

 

Lee Steiden – Working hard. Dependable player for practice.

 

Chris Brickley – Another hard worker with great passion for the game.

 

George Goode – Must work harder at the defensive end.  The year off put him in a difficult spot.   Hope he picks it up.

The more I hear about him the more I think we're all going to love Jared Swopshire.

Five days until basketball season.

Do we know them?

McGee's starting against Georgetown and Sosa against NKU

Aside from that you’ve got Smith at the two, Delk – in all likelihood – at the three with T-Will out, and then Clark and Samuels inside.

Delk ...that info excites me

Jerry’s always a killer

but to hear Delk is coming along so well… ; – )

question

Everyone expects UL to be a talented and balanced offensive team but who will get the ball in the final seconds of a one possession game? Who will be our Reece, Francisco, DeJaun?

George Goode

Saying that coach “hopes” he gets it is not a good sign (pun intended). Sounds like the same comments as in the past with Huffman and others. This can be overcome but it takes a helluva work ethic to overcome the obstacles.

Goode

If Goode is half the man that Jonathan Huffman is I think we will be just fine.
