Maybe he wanted to see who it was on the other side. Pretty sure Texas Men's Basketball will be just fine. Hopefully Roose is happy and the guys are happy with him.He must have known that before he went to Texas. Probably best for the strength and conditioning coach to get while the getting is good. ?![]()
This is his dream job I heard.Maybe he wanted to see who it was on the other side. Pretty sure Texas Men's Basketball will be just fine. Hopefully Roose is happy and the guys are happy with him.
This is one guy Texas did not want to lose. Coach Roose was highly revered in Austin and in April had been awarded the title of Master Strength and Conditioning Coach from the College Strength and Conditioning Coaches Association. This is the highest honor in the field. He was instrumental in the rapid development of three big men at Texas in his four years who became 1st round draft picks. A highly regarded S&C Coach can have a substantial impact on recruiting. This is an area that is very important to potential recruits.
Great to have Coach Roose coming back. He will finish-up the summer training program at Texas before arriving in Richmond.
Just goes to show that VCU > UT.
Then Roose wins. If this is really what he prefers then we both are better for it. Also, given he's seen the bright lights of the so called big time, he's not likely to swayed in the future.This is his dream job I heard.
Be interesting to hear what their philosophical differences are with respect to size and strength gain methods.I am elated for Coach Roose to return and I wish the very best to Coach Brown! It is obvious that Coach Brown was a very successful Coach with our players. I mean the extraordinary transformations I saw were overwhelming, more like scary?
While Texas basketball has not been up to par as a whole (love Shaka but those are the facts) the development of their big men have been incredible even for power 5 standards. Jarrett Allen, Mohamed Bamba, and Jaxson Hayes stories make a big difference when recruiting players like Obinna, Elijah Taylor, and Christian Fussell.
