That said, we have one of the best strength coaches in the country. Cane Broome came to UC weighing 147 pounds and now weighs 167. He came in benching 95 pounds and now maxes out at 185.

Thats a huge transformation and buy in
As much as I like to hear about body transformation I would like to hear more about skills transformation. A guy like Thomas should not have gone 4 seasons before adjusting the loft on his shot. Scott is in a similar boat. We have been pretty bad at FT shooting during Cronin's tenure. That can and should change. If repetition at the line is not getting it done we need to adjust routine or technique for certain players.

I think we can do a lot more on offensive player development in the off season.
