Bryan Penn-Johnson listed weight on UW BBall website: 245 lbs

Either 247 is seriously off with their listed weights or Will Wade has made a concerted effort to bulk these guys up.

Check with Vitale
He seems to have the most info on our beloved hoops coach

Our teams are much more physical and bigger/stronger than ever before.
His strength coach seems to be the real deal.

Does the football and basketball teams have different strength and conditioning coaches?

You’d be surprised how much muscle you can put on when you’re life evolves around your sport everyday and you’re in your prime age of fat burning. High school you just don’t have the time to do as much as college, biggest difference is in weight room and nutrition. Those strength coaches know what they’re doing. I gained about 35-40 lbs of muscle within 2 years just as a swimmer.

You never really know when the last time their weight was updated on the recruiting site. If I had to guess, their gains aren't quite as dramatic as it looks because the 247 numbers are probably really old.

That and I'd imagine LSU is probably boosting those numbers a little as well

Unfortunately, Eric Gaines has somehow gone down from 170 to 155 pounds

that's what happens when you "line their pockets", especially with untraceable gold bullion, instead of cutting checks!

You do you CWW!!!

Let's just hope they don't all copy his body shape.

I'm pretty sure players didn't even have to workout under Johnny Jones
Most skipped workouts and didn't care
