Watching Baylor’s strength and physicality, everyone is going to copy their S&C

Obviously everyone lifts weights in offseason.
Does anyone know how heavy the LSU basketball and baseball players lift during the season?
That is the new focus, how heavy, how often, and when to lift during season.
Baylor players were strong as hell

baylor also had 5 dudes shooting better than 40% from deep, that’s obviously cause they shoot more threes than us in practice i’m assuming right?

Not sure what you are laughing about. Take a look at what all of the strength coaches around the country are saying. Start with Houston’s basketball strength coach

Older teams usually are more developed physically.

I’m guessing not as much as the basketball and baseball players at Baylor lift?

I'm laughing because LSU OBVIOUSLY has a strength program, but I'd venture a guess that the reason Baylor just became national champs is because they have better players, better coaching, and run better plays...not because someone can squat 50lbs more than some guy from another school.

Well, you would be partially wrong. Not sure what you were watching but Baylor’s strength played a huge role. Were manhandling them.
Yes, everyone lifts. No they don’t do it close to the same way, frequency, nor percentage of max especially during the season.
I will give you one example. Houston basketball S&C coach has been saying all year that the players should squat heavy and often throughout the season and vast majority of teams don’t.

There’s no doubt Baylor was physical even at guard but they had a 24 year old out there and no freshman on the court. The front line had 1 sophomore I think and the other 2 were a junior and senior. You can see the same with our team. Days and Watford are both about 240-245 but Days is much more physically developed with stronger hands and a stronger core. Javonte Smart’s body is completely different than it was 2 years ago. Look at Brandon Rachel who transferred a couple years ago now compared to when he was here. This year we didn’t have enough big bodies but in 2019 with KBW, Naz, Days and Emmitt we had as physical and imposing a front line as anybody. Our strength and conditioning is very good under Wade.

So then football players and powerlifters will win every basketball game right?

Exactly.

No doubt that Wade’s crew does a much better job than the previous crew. Would you acknowledge that Rummel even though “both programs were LSU that obviously have strength programs.”

There are also a lot of guys that have been in the program 3-4 years: Butler, Thamba, Flagler, Teague, Mitchell, Vitale (who is 24 years old!)
The five who started the most games for LSU were: two true freshmen (Thomas and Wilkinson), a Sophomore (Watford) and two Juniors (Days and Smart). If you look at Days and Smart now from their 1st year you can see the transformation.
Hell, look at Skylar Mays from year one to year 4:

Ask me that question again, but in a way that makes sense, and I'll give you my answer.

There’s a difference between being an athlete and being able to squat heavy

Can you rephrase or elaborate? Not sure what you’re saying with this statement.

Your argument was that every program has a strength program. I just pointed out that Wade’s strength program at LSU is much better than the strength program for the basketball team before him at the same LSU. So yes, the specific program matters much more than you are downplaying it
