-The Aggies started their 40-minutes practice with, you guessed it, 15 minutes of stretching and literally walking in a circle lol.
-After that they got straight into some pick and roll drills, going 2-on-2 and 3-on-3 with some assistant coaches. The centers don't have the green light from outside, but the smaller forwards like Sean Baristow and Taylor Funk do. They had them do a few reps where they slip out of the screen to pop beyond the arc.
-They do like their bigs to cut in from the weakside and hit them either with a lob or a dump-off at the rim. That seemed like one of the ways Alabama got Charles Bediako involved.
-They went through a drill where they played 5-on-0 just kind of whipping the ball around. 62.3% of Utah State field goals have been assisted on this season, which ranks 10th in the country according to KenPom. Ball movement is a big priority with them.
-They spent a long time working on catch-and-shoot 3s. I couldn't tell you if it was good or bad. There was at least one corner 3 that hit the side of the backboard for whatever that's worth.
-They started shooting free throws with around 12 minutes left on the clock. And then after that, it was pretty much an open shootaround. I had to leave early to go catch Mizzou's media session.
-Mason Falslev got very excited when the band started playing "Uptown Funk" by Bruno Mars.
-Mizzou just got on the court, I'll let y'all know what I see
