So at the end of the article - if I read it right... McKay is out-rebounding Hogue in practice? That's good news (IMO), and consistent with stats and reports from Indian Hills that McKay is a junkyard dog. If this proves out, this might be a year (finally) when we don't have to always commit 3-4 guys to the defensive boards to keep things even. Which should in turn allow for a quicker break, better transition game.
Ya, that's awesome. It doesn't surprise me that McKay is neck and neck with Hogue on the glass. He's basically a 3" taller version of Hogue. Long, lean, muscular, jump out of the gym, very active, tenacious.
By listening to interviews, you can tell the following:
-This team learned a lot from DeAndre and Ejim
-They understand chemistry is the key for them
-They realize that great offensive production is a given, but now they can start to improve defensively and on the glass with added depth and length
-They understand that nothing is going to be handed to them. Every practice is going to be a battle.
These are all really good signs, IMO.
