Chapter 8

Like the opening date of domestic universities, the universities in Laos and America usually open on September 1.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Richard asked little Brownie to call up the players of the school team. He was ready to meet first.

The NCAA team's training schedule has strict rules. In order not to affect the players' normal progress of university study, the team cannot carry out training in September.

Although it is said that many schools will violate this rule, can't they train intensively? Then let the players organize their own training, the most coaches do not appear is

But Richard didn't mean to exploit the loophole. In his opinion, it was totally unnecessary.

He really just wanted to meet the players today.

At 4:30 p.m., little bronny had already assembled the players, and Rahim's task has not been completed yet, so Richard's other tasks are extremely concerned.

……

As a famous basketball school, the basketball hall of Purdue University has a large natural specification and can accommodate 14000 people on site.

Although this scale is not enough compared with NBA stadium, it's amazing to know that this is only a university stadium with such a large scale!

A line of ten stood in front of Richard at the moment.

At this moment, Richard's heart is full of great passion. Look at his team, three future All-Star players, and Brent Barry, the super dunk king and super three-way break-up. Even the NBA coach is hard to have the chance to coach such a luxury team!

"Jerome green!"

"To!"

Richard took over the list from Brownie and called names one by one.

"Luke barmot!"

"To!"

The first six are old players of the team, most of them are former sophomores and juniors.

And the last four are the harvest of Richard's holiday

"Brad Miller!"

"To!"

Richard looked in the direction of Miller. He was really quite good. He was the tallest of the ten, a typical seven foot inner height.

But Miller's somewhat restrained and shy expression made Richard unable to connect with the evil Miller in his mind.

But when you think of the past coaches and the media's comments on Miller, the bad guys on the court and the simple and gentle people off the court, the present constraints and shyness can also be explained clearly.

"Ben Wallace!"

"To!"

The majestic and powerful voice, like sullen thunder, resounded throughout the basketball hall, attracting the attention of other players.

Richard smiled. That's the taste. Big Ben!

"Brent Barry!"

"To!"

Barry, a senior, obviously looks more stable than Miller and Big Ben. He looks at Richard with confidence and bright eyes.

Richard smiled and nodded to the minibus

"Aaron Iverson!"

"To..."

The voice is not loud. If Richard didn't look at the past, other players would not have noticed the dwarf

Short is Richard's first impression of Iverson.

In fact, there are different opinions about Iverson's height. The official height is 1.83 meters, but Richard is sure that Iverson's height is less than 1.8 meters, at least at this time, there is no 1.8 meters

Because Richard himself is 1.8 meters tall, Iverson may be shorter than himself by visual inspection

Richard immediately put his eyes back on Big Ben

"Good guy, I broke the historical mystery two times in a row today. Iverson's height is less than one meter eight, and Big Ben's height is two meters." Richard thought with a smile.

The reason why Big Ben's height can be determined is that Brent Barry standing beside him is 201 cm tall. Big Ben is almost as tall as Barry

……

As for Iverson's second impression on Richard, it was "mourning"

I feel that this kid doesn't care about any world in the world. He looks like he's fucking. His face is full of life. It's like something happened around him. It has nothing to do with him

But Richard, who is familiar with Iverson's temperament, doesn't care. This is exactly what Iverson attracts.

……

All the names of the ten people have been counted. The number is a little small, but Richard thinks it's enough.

NCAA teams do not have strict limits on the number of team members like the NBA, but the general number is about 12 to 15. If there are only 10 players, it is not against the rules.

In essence, there is no difference between NCAA Basketball Team and other organizations in the University. Basketball team can also recruit an unlimited number of members, but most of the members are playing soy sauce and there is no scholarship.Like those drama clubs and dance clubs, those who can finally perform on the stage must be the best in the community

The ten people in front of Richard's eyes are the best, the best with full scholarship

Clearing his throat, Richard opened his mouth and said slowly.

"First of all, on behalf of Purdue University, I congratulate four new players on joining the boiler team!"

"The history of the boiler team is extremely brilliant. I'm afraid you've seen it before you joined the school. What's your opinion?"

Brent Barry was the first one to stand up. It seemed that he was ready

"Coach Li, our team has won the national championship once, and then there are two final four, countless Elite Eight and sweet sixteen. Last season, we got the seat of sweet sixteen!"

Richard nodded. At first, he was worried about something that happened in Xiaoba because of the identity of the son of a famous celebrity. Now he is relieved. Xiaoba's tutor is pretty good

"Yes, you're right. The reason why Purdue University is a famous basketball school is because of its brilliant team history!"

"But I don't know if you notice how long we haven't won the championship!"

"The only championship in the team's history was 1932, more than 60 years from now!"

More than 60 years, more than half a century. When Richard said this, he obviously felt the profound history of Purdue University team!

"In the next two years, even this season, I will lead you to taste the taste of winning the championship more than 60 years ago!"

Richard's words are not as bland as those of passionate coaches.

Because he is very clear, his words, now said, no one will believe!

The big dog is on the draft? You want to win?!

Recruit new also did not recruit any decent new people, the only harvest of the whole new season, I'm afraid that is the transfer of minibus!

In this case, it's just like a dream!

……

Sure enough, after hearing Richard's words, old Philippe not far away would like to remind Richard that the current situation of the team, let alone win the championship, would be good to rush out of the big ten league

But in view of doing so, it will damage the authority of Richard's head coach, old Philippe simply shut up.

All the players look at each other and win the championship? It's a scary goal

We need to know that last season when we were strong and strong, it was only the sweet top 16. If Richard set the goal of this season as the top 16, they might accept

"Coach, we..." The old man in the team, Jerome green, wanted to talk.

"Well? What happened to us? " Richard frowned and looked over

"The rest of our old players, the strength..."

"The four newcomers have no experience..."

"Our strength, I'm afraid..."

Although green prevaricates, but the meaning of the words is very obvious, that is, the remaining old players are generally not strong, new players have no experience, no hope of winning the championship
