ORUTerry Posted April 9, 2021 Author Share Posted April 9, 2021 Mills seems to be working a plan to upgrade and improve the ORU basketball program. I am impressed with his vision and focus. It really comes down to finding the right players and helping them develop their talents within the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagle88 Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 I agree. Coach Mills has vision and obviously is good at instilling that vision in his players and coaches. I have thought for many years now that ORU is in a great location for recruiting good players and we have great facilities. What we have lacked is a coach with vision that is willing to stay and build a solid nationally known program. Now we have it! Looking forward to a steady incline!

Cletus Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 I just took the time to listen to the interview with Sam Patterson for over an hour. It was worth it! That Ironhorse podcast was great! Thanks for sharing it. It inspired me! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theeagleman5 Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Mills' 14 years at Baylor showed him how a big time program does things the right way.....he seems to be bringing a lot of that to ORU....let's hope he continues to bring in the right guys and the University keeps upgrading the campus and athletic facilities....

Old Titan Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 (edited) Great getting to know another ORU reserve player, Ismael Plet, in this surprisingly well-done podcast, a UVA student-run production (though Ish is from the Netherlands, he was a high school star in Virginia).

It's impressive to me how well the guys conducted themselves during all the media availability we've seen during NCAA run and after. Very mature and measured for a group of 18-22 year olds... I definitely couldn't have communicated as well they have with local and national media at that age. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsSmith Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Yes so many of these young guys are very good communicators. I am very impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ORUTerry Posted April 16, 2021 Author Share Posted April 16, 2021 He gets a gold star for using the word “equanimity” in his conversation. I’m impressed. Nice vocabulary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
