Willie Reed could use some help on the boards


Recommended Posts

Willie's 10.6 per game are great, but someone else has gotta step up.

If Conklin can just work on that vertical, he'd probably have similar numbers. I'm not sure the kid can even dunk. The good news is that between Reed, Remekun and Smith, we should be getting more than our fair share of rebounds once the frosh put on a little weight.

If conklin only had 6% body fat he would be averaging at least 23 boards/game

Honestly, hes strong enough, he needs quickness and vertical like NAshville said

nh that's pretty funny. :)

Indeed. Conklin's plenty big these days, he needs plyo workouts like crazy. I don't care if he can dunk, though it'd sure be nice. With his muscle and determination, the only things possibly missing from the BAMF rebounder equation are awareness and athleticism. I think he just needs that holy grail... "ups".

agreed, box jumps until he is blue in the face

John Smith is also a guy that really needs to step up.

I would introduce him to a nutrionalist as well as a personal trainer, weight lifting regimine, and aim to take in 5 thousands calories a day in the offseason to get some beef on his frame.

Thats what im in school for but I will be aiming for a larger school possibly even some minor league type teams upon graduation. Right now all I have is a diploma from the University of Cahokia so im not exactly qualified just yet

If you bros havent already figured out im pretty good at this whole diet/bodybuilding deal so im sure when I graduated Slu would be interested in at least an interview probably because I guarantee I could put some meat on these guys

SLU already has a Director of strength & conditioning, with a masters in exercise physiology, who was the assistant strength and conditioning specialist at The Ohio State University prior to coming to slu. The team also works with a nutritionist, ATC's on a daily basis and PT's on prn basis.

Needless to say, they have a good staff that knows what they're doing. I'd say it's best leaving it up to them for now...
