Jon Scheyer spoke to the media Wednesday and talked about the obvious things: the staff additions, Kyle Filipowski’s recovery (get ready to hear “two-hip Flip” a lot) among other stuff.
What jumped out at us was something else though.
Remember when Scheyer was first introduced as Mike Krzyzewski’s successor when the GOAT announced his retirement?
In that press conference, he looked nervous and overwhelmed at first. As it went on, he seemed to grow as you watched.
Same thing happened at Coach K’s final basketball banquet: Scheyer came on stage and - this is no knock on him, he’s blessed to be thin - but he looked like a teenager.
