Keys to Victory:
•Contain Julio
•Contain Juliooo!
•Get JET involved early & often
•Get consistent pressure on Ryan
•Contain ATLs outside runs
•Let 19/14 EAT on ATLs secondary
•No turnovers#SKOL— J.R. (@JReidDraftScout) December 3, 2017
Another point Coach Pitino made we all must remember is that its early, guys aren't used to playing in secondary positions yet in terms of their spots in sets and within the motion. Can't just throw guys into spots they haven't practiced in

Word on a couple of the bigger name FA pitches is that the #MNTwins remain "engaged and interested." But yet to hear "in heavily," which can all change w/ one call. Still will emphasize that the trade market is very realistic. In ball mood at Drewgie's Saturday training.
