Thanks Kev for pointing this one on your thread but i want Steve to get some love on his own

This is SO exciting for UAB and for it's fans to have Steve writing about us again

Exclusive: Kennedy breaks down Blazers

Quote:Take away the original UAB men’s basketball roster, Andy Kennedy said, and the Blazers have never added as many as the nine new players that the current Blazer head coach brought in this season.

It’s been a summer of discovery for Kennedy and his coaching staff.

Steve, thanks for the fantastic summary of the new players along with where our returners stand as well.

What a great site!

He is GREAT with UAB. I was glad to subscribe.

He's been hurt but Will Shaver looks good. Seems like AK was also complimentary that Shaver had already cut about 25 pounds.

Will Javian step into a starting role at the 5?

Yep. He is in great shape. Quicker, stronger and faster. AK expects big things from him.

I did chuckle at that, but it also reminded me of Lofton and how crazy athletic he is for his size.

Coach AK has been hanging out with ol' Ray!

Glad Steve is back somewhere, he was still at FB practice and press conferences.

3 6'9" players on the roster this year. I wonder which will become the backup to JD, Yax or Coleman. Having 3 options should create enough competition in that spot, where AK can sub effectively. JD seemed a drop off from Jemison.
