Ramsey Nijem - Good Job
I thought KU's strength and conditioning was a thing of beauty this season. They played physical basketball on both ends of the court - bodying up on defense and finishing through contact on offense. Additionally, they always seemed to have more left in the tank at the end of games than their opponents.
Nijem gets 2 thumbs up from me.

Hes really good. He spent the previous 5 years before KU working with pros. I dont think there's very many strength and conditioning coaches with that kind of pedigree in college basketball. Now he's turning these guys into pros

He got here in 19. Look at the work he's done with some of these guys the past few years

Re: Ramsey Nijem - Good Job
Lets see what he can do with dajuan harris the next couple years. Thats the real test. He needs to put some muscle on that kid. If he can do that and make him more explosive we've got a damn good college player
Re: Ramsey Nijem - Good Job
Good job, good post.

Re: Ramsey Nijem - Good Job
It’s mostly the way he’s built. Sure, get stronger, but I’m more concerned with Harris’s fatigue. Adding weight to a guy just because he looks small is not always a good idea.randylahey wrote: ↑Thu Apr 21, 2022 7:28 pm Lets see what he can do with dajuan harris the next couple years.

As for Nijem, though, good thread. He’s an upgrade over what we had as has been mentioned throughout the season. Och and CB development was amazing and huge for the team.
Re: Ramsey Nijem - Good Job
Mitch got huge. CB is ripped. Och was always a specimen, but he's even more ripped now. DH probably struggles to put weight on, if I had to guess, but he will continue to get stronger.randylahey wrote: ↑Thu Apr 21, 2022 7:26 pm He got here in 19.

Re: Ramsey Nijem - Good Job
DH has a thin frame so he'll always have limitations there. But hes still gonna get stronger and more explosive
Re: Ramsey Nijem - Good Job
Stronger would be nice, but I'm more interested in him shooting threes the way he did against Nova. Might honestly be the single most important thing towards next season's chances, aside from the how the portal shakes out.

Also, nagging injuries definitely seemed to be better managed than in the past

Nijem is a huge upgrade over Hudy. which is funny, because people raved and raved and raved about Hudy. she did her job fine sure, but she was a woman in a male dominated profession at a prolific school, and so she got a crazy amount of extra attention for it

Now that is cringy nonsense. Hudy was also good.
Re: Ramsey Nijem - Good Job
Nijem may add a little recruiting bump as in he knows how to get players physically ready for the next level.

I have always thought assistant coaches and S&C coaches having pro experience was more important than the head coach.
