Singelais' Tweets: All the returning Siena players are here at the ARC for offseason workouts, plus former Saints star Kenny Hasbrouck. Siena G Ryan Oliver is the only player not practicing today. He's resting a foot injury, according to Jimmy Patsos Siena practicing with NBA 24-second shot clock today, instead of college :35. Patsos said he's trying to keep it fun for the players. I like the line about using the 24 second shot clock.... I think this translates into getting the players minds to think faster on the offensive side of the ball.

Heights and weights now officially updated. Looks like maybe we're now inflating heights like the rest of the league.
Highlights:
Gottfried 6-3, 175 Paige 6-4, 211 Brandwijk 6-8, 229
-Lavon grew an inch and lost some pounds...PPC enforcing her will on getting more explosive. 6-7 looks much better at PF don't you think. -Oliver stepped in miracle gro and grew 2 inches so that Jimmy wouldn't look foolish when calling him 6-5 in interviews -White grew an inch also so that he could play some PF -Poole grew an inch because maybe he's growing the fro back out. Feathered and lethal?
Cole, White, JO, Bisping, Wolfe all put on some pounds
Cole is 221, JO 239,Bisping 238.. not sure if these are necessarily good signs.

Jimmy applied the "rack" method of making players taller. Hence, Ryan's iced knees & being held out of practice. The trainers were only to make him 1" taller not 2"s.

I would guess the roster will be updated again with heights and weights in October before the first official practice. The team has four months to hit the weight room and get bigger and stronger. I am a little surprised that Hymes, Silas and Poole grew an inch and Oliver grew two supposedly. Men can grow to 21 but it's not that common (but I'm not a doctor). I believe those guys are all 21 or older. Maybe they measured them with their shoes on this time or their feet were not together the last time - LOL Lavon is 6'7 222 those are your prototypical SF's measurables.

They wont update it again like last year. Lavon was listed at 235 all season yet lost that weight early. The guys grew from Patsos' secret growing juice he brought in from Loyola.

If Jimmy has them running to a 24 second clock, I doubt we're going to have to worry about excessive weight. By October, mean and lean! I'm probably more curious as to what Lavon is going to look like more than anyone. Wolfe will also be interesting.

Paige was always listed at 6'5 in H.S. last season. They list at his true lesser height of 6'4, so it would appear Siena is still keeping it real. Siena now suiting up 6 guys 6'7 or taller. And they've got a number of 6'3-6'6 guards running around. Pretty big team. Now that Lavon is 6'7 and nearly 230, do we finally have PPC's permission to refer to him as a big man?

Lavon lost weight lol he was 234 and is now 220. You can call him what you want. Patsos starts him at the 3 and calls him a G/F .. he mentioned Lavon will move around.
