Watched Emoni Bates lastnight...Chet was to much for them....

One of the worst parts of last summer’s cancellations was missing Chet’s last year of summer basketball. Have watched him progress from a lanky, awkward Freshman, to a lanky, awesome future #1 pick (most likely).  Tried to bet someone last spring who wasn’t convinced of Chet’s skills that he would be an NBA all star inside this decade.  Would still make this bet, even money, with anyone.  Kid can flat out play and, maybe my favorite part of his game, is a flat out dog on the floor.

For a 7fter he can ball.!

Man he is something else.  The team he plays for “Sizzle” is named for Terrell Suggs.  Suggs nephew Jalen played with Chet up until this year and is now a freshman at Gonzaga.  But as good as Jalen is, Chet was the man.  Saw him go a 4 game stretch in Atlanta summer before last where he missed like a total of 4 shots over 4 games (and he shoots from everywhere).  And he blocks everything around the basket.  Kid is special for sure.

highlights from the game Hooohead was referencing. 

Lots of players there.  He is very impressive.  Kind of a slow start in that first quarter wasnt really liking him sitting outside kind of being a non factor offensively then in the second quarter bam.  Very impressive handling the ball and shooting for his size. Good vision as well  Defense speaks for itself.  All that and still looks like he is still growing into his size a little.

Lol I felt the same way.  My son sent me the video and I was thinking, man this is the worst I’ve seen him.  He looks rusty as hell.  And then bam.

      So you are saying a star baseball SHOULD be doing full contact football drills during the baseball season as his Baseball team prepares for the playoffs?

      Roger.  I misread your comment. Perhaps the other sports will turn the corner sometime soon.

      I'm going to agree with this. Individual drills would be fine, but a varsity baseball player should not be involved in full pad practices during the baseball season. Especially, if he is a contributing player on a playoff bound baseball team. This is irresponsible and selfish of the AD/HFC.

      If there's a specific situation that started this thread, I don't know the details.  Nor do I care.  But I do have an opinion about what I'm gathering from some of the comments. My opinion: I do believe that an AD should leave the players of a particular sport to their respective head coach during that season.  The varsity players of that sport anyway.  I believe it's a little different concerning the sub varsity players of that sport.  If an AD/HFC decides to grab some JV baseball players for some offseason football stuff during the athletics period, I don't have AS MUCH of a problem with it.  I would still consider it a common courtesy to discuss with the head coach of that particular sport to consider their thoughts on it. I also believe that ALL athletes should be lifting and running all year.  When in a particular season, I believe that the head coach of that sport should control the reigns on that topic to implement some sport specific lifting/running during their season.  But all athletes should be in the weight room year round. As far as playing multiple sports?  I'm an advocate.  I know that the popular idea is for potentially good/great players in a specific sport to "focus" on that sport.  And I agree.. but focusing on one sport doesn't mean stopping the others.  It just means prioritizing time in a way that extra work is put into that specific sport.  After hours, weekends, holidays/summer, etc..  Just because you plan on making a push into college baseball (for example) doesn't mean you can't work on baseball during other sports seasons.  That's exactly what I did.. and countless others.  Plus, it's important to maybe learn how to be a role player in a sport that you're not the best at.  Because that's coming. That's my opinion.  And I come from an era where kids played multiple sports if they knew it would be helping.  Helping their classmates.. or just contributing to school pride.  I hate knowing that there are schools that could be much more competitive if their kids would just come out.  It's hard for me to understand if I'm being honest.
