Physically Fit???

[Pistol Pete 1]

Something that I have not seen talked about yet is the conditioning of our basketball players. The last couple of years The football team has been relatively healthy in spite of football being a much more physical game. Much was said about how great our strength and conditioning coach was and what an impact he had on the readiness of our guys to compete and stay healthy.

Now this is basketball. Yeah it’s a contact sport but nothing like football. You have to expect the occasional ankle sprain but what has been going on with basketball is way outside of the norm. Whoever is responsible for getting these guys ready for a season of hoops is not getting the job done.

DJ gets bumped in the shoulder and he has missed 5 games already? WTH! Jace is out for an entire season, for what I don’t know. Whaley out for the entire year with a back issue. This is more than bad luck, it is a sign that you need a r much better strength and conditioning coach.

Our team was completely gassed last night playing 7 guys. Come on man! Tark ran people out of the gym for 40 minutes playing 7 guys. Unacceptable level of conditioning on Kruger’s teams.

Totally agree on our conditioning issues. I have seen many times this year, when the Rebels get a loose ball or a long rebound or a steal, they almost act like…. Oh we got it, now lets take a break and catch our breath. Rarely do we “ push it” and score. It’s infuriating to watch. Very unVegas like. But very Kevin Kruger like….Hopefully one or two more games of this basketball era…

Did Kabo go to Purdue? I wonder how their conditioning has been, to include injury proneness.

 

[RebelScrub]

These guys need a scoop of preworkout and a Sativa and “conditioning” won’t be an issue.

When will I get my news….. When will Nepo idiot be outta here.

Conditioning may very well be part of the issue. But NM needs some credit. They haven't lost a conference game at home this year. The young Pitino is just better than the young Kruger. Better recruiting, development and in -game coaching. Better.

If you believe the UNLV narrative that DJ is really hurt or Waley hurt his back..


Uhh That’s on you.

Speaking from experience true freshman cardio is a lot different than 5th year senior full grown man cardio..

I wasn’t really even talking about last night’s game, just our general physical readiness to play the last several years.

Wont be surprised if Little Pitino cashes is plucked from UNM this year.

Towel guy should lead conditioning of the men’s..

Instead he’s helping the women’s players kick ass

No on Pitino!
Harper has a plan!

It appears Harpers plan is to elevate FB and put BB on the back burner. It may be a fantastic plan. But I'm not going to continue to play my part as the chump who buys season tickets and sits with 2000 other chumps to watch boring BB and lose games at home.

Based on what evidence, I have not seen anything that says he will keep Kruger, or look to get a coach on the cheap?

I can’t believe you’re giving up the ghost WHR..

It’s tough to break habits. I got mental withdrawals from not going to the games..

At least we got Women’s basketball until Lindy gets poached later down the line..

I'll go to some games. But if they keep KK it's a show of disrespect to the fans who buy season tickets. It's like owning a mule for years. The mule works his himself nearly to death and then for his last few years you sell him to a petting zoo where little girls poke his eyes.
