per Marcus:
Jordan Murphy: “I think I need to work on a little bit of everything,” Murphy said last month. “I need to work on (shooting). Nothing in my game is perfect or completed. Just need to get back in the gym and do everything. It was a huge motivation for me (to be named All-Big Ten third team). But I’m going to aim higher, put my goals higher. It was a great honor. I was glad I was recognized but it’s just back to work.” Pitino also wrote in the blog that the 6-6 sophomore forward needed to work on his all-around game. He said Murphy is “on the verge of becoming a special player.”
Amir Coffey: “Definitely my strength and get some weight on me,” Coffey said about his main offseason goal. “My jump shot and dribbling. Just want to work on my overall game and come back as a complete player next year.” Pitino said that he’s excited because the All-Big Ten freshman guard has a lot of potential. “Have to work on his right hand as well as shooting more of a jump shot then a set shot. I want him to start dreaming big because he's a special talent,” Pitino wrote in his blog about the 6-8 Coffey.
Reggie Lynch: “I still feel like I need to make improvements on my defense (not fouling as much),” Lynch said last month. “I would say improving my offensive game in general and patience in the post. Some people say I go too quick with my moves. Foul shooting can always be improved for any player. For me, just rebounding as well. I don’t think I need to work on my shot blocking. I’m good there.” Pitino exclaimed that it was a “Huge offseason for Reggie!” The Gophers coach also wrote in his blog that Lynch, a 6-10 junior center, needs to be commit himself to spending time in the gym working on his offensive game down low.
