Jeff Capel spoke to the media this morning, and he was asked about Papa Kante and Marlon Barnes - how Kante is progressing with his knee injury and how Barnes is progressing during his redshirt year.
On Kante:
"He’s doing really, really well. He’s able to do more stuff now, as far as - nothing on the court as far as practice or anything, but he’s able to do some court work, just some shooting and anything that doesn’t involve cutting right now. He’s had an unbelievable attitude of how he’s approached his rehab and has done an outstanding job."
On Barnes:
"He’s gotten better in practice, just as far as, he’s gotten stronger, learning how to compete more. Going against those guards every day, being a big part of the scout team, I think that’s helped him. So I just think he’s gotten better from all of those ways: he’s gotten stronger, learned how to compete more, learned how to play harder, all of those things."
