Behind the scenes of Day 1 for DonnieKnoxville

He had individual meetings last night with players. They are doing individual workouts starting today. Players and coaches should start bonding soon. Hopefully it all comes together.

Remember, the guy just got hired. At this point you and I know more about these players, their personalities and their game than this man.

Cut them some slack. A week ago they found out on Twitter their coach was headed to Cal. They feel like they've been dumped. They'll come around.

I wasn't criticizing the players if it came across that way. I think they have every right to be upset and angry. I was saying that CDT has a lot of work to do to earn their trust and hopefully he can do that.

Great Video but when they were filming him introducing himself to the team a lot of the players seemed to be giving him the cold shoulder. In particular Hubbs didn't seem to enthused. Hopefully CDT can get these guys to buy in quickly and if that happens I think we can surprise a few people next year.

In regards to Hubbs, that just seems like his personality. He always seems super stoic. Thompson as well.

It's gotta be so hard to introduce yourself to a team that has just been left by a coach they liked...especially with all the hokum involved with his departure. That being said, some of the players do seem to be snickering.

Hubbs has no business having an attitude about anything. He flat out sucked from what I saw last year. This 5 star "bust in the making" couldn't tie Wiggins' shoes. I hope he proves me wrong.

His shoulder was messed up man so you didn't see much. Trust me he'll prove you wrong.

You thinks hubbs has a bad attitude based on a 2 second snippet from a video? Get a life and build your straw man somewhere else.

I can't wait for the day two installment of this vid. Should be interesting to say the least.

I was surprised that at the end of his player meeting when CDT told them he hopes that they can dunk it that they didn't perk up a bit.

I'm a big Martin fan, but felt bad for the Tyndall on that video. It's not really his fault he walked into a situation where the players see him as the choice of an administration and fanbase that ran their coach off.

Failed post is failed. I am not a fan of the hire (yet), but your comment was asinine and ignorant about the realities of what that young man went through this year. I hope the fleas from a thousand camels infest your crotch and your hands go numb!

You guys are reading way too much into the body language of the players from that video. I talk to classrooms full of college kids all day and there was nothing abnormal or negative about the way they acted. In fact, they all responded to his call to breakdown at the end.

looked to me that all the players were very respectful and attentive to CDT, especially given their entire college career just shifted completely. i dont know what im missing that was offensive.
