I don’t know why this stuck out to me, but Conwell looks BIG in this video. Maybe I haven’t been paying attention, but he has the body of a guard who should be able to play at all 3 levels and be a bully on the defensive end if he commits to it.
Also…death, taxes, and Masen Miller hitting threes in practice.
I thought the same. He looked huge

Coach mentioned they have two secret scrimmages planned at home on 10/14 & 10/28. Being "secret" no teams revealed.

Good vibe from the first few looks of it. Hopefully can be a good month and a half to get these boys ready for Bama.
My views of some of the videos I’ve seen so far:
1. Avila doesn’t look like he put on any muscle.......looks the same as last year.
2. Doesn’t look like a whole lot of defensive pressure in any video. Guys are getting wide open 3-point looks and easy bunny shots. Too many easy shots in these videos.
3. I know these videos could be edited to highlight the offense, but the defense is what concerns me.
4. I’d like to see some defenders blocking some shots and knocking some people down. These videos make it look like we’re very soft on defense.

If you are watching these videos for defense then they won't be for you. On top of that, you already answered your own statement. Avila slimmed down as I can tell his body changed a little bit but just because you don't see it doesn't mean he didn't put on any muscle. You should take these videos with a grain of salt as we saw last year Miller knocking down 3's in practice but it never translated to games.

Someone needs to pass the ball to Kent and make him catch it 100 times before and after practice. He’s got butta fingers terribly
Definitely more defense shown in this video.
