Do we see an overhaul in our philosophy here under GMAC or will it be more rinse and repeat in these facets?
We saw a new nutritionist come in and the swap out of program strength trainers under Red, but saw no noticeable impact/improvement on the court in this regard.
I kinda earmarked Donnie as the test case this year for strength development and he was still really weak for his size this season, got the ball muscled-off him by point guards repeatedly, and bumped-off by bigger, more aggressive defenders in the paint too often... and did not have the requisite strength to even try and fend off the double-team.
Anyways, seems like this has been a perpetual cultural deficiency under both JAB's and Red's tenures...
Can/will GMAC change that and modernize and improve Strength, Conditioning, & Nutrition??
We also have the JG3 Clemson transfer as an example of a before and after player that went somewhere with a real Strength, Conditioning, & Nutrition program and reaped the benefits...
