No. Sat down, put on the Gopher hat and that was it.

Love this quote:

“But when I get there, I want to start making my own legacy. I don’t want to be Richard Coffey’s son; I want to be Amir Coffey.”

Wow that was fun to watch. I can't wait to see him in maroon and gold.

 

[Cayman]

All of the shooting, handling, and passing skills of a great point guard in a 6'7" body. Can he play this year?

Also is there any chance he grows another inch or two? I was going back through the beginning of this thread, and there was something about his doctor projecting he could get as big as 6'9".
