The loss of Lowe and Jordan weighed heavy on him and his players last year.
Phillips continues to master the small things. He loves to watch film and is always trying to learn. Moves much more fluid than he did when he first got here.
Claims to have a lot of experience with confidence. He tells his players, no one has to play every play to be relevant. Sounds like he expects to play a number of guys to keep kids fresh.
He said Phillips is religious and stands up for what he believes. Sounds like he avoids the party scene and has got some teasing because of it. Shah said he came in very mature. He remains very close to his parents and calls them every day.
Absolutely loves Broughton. So happy to have him back. Has a workman like attitude every day. You can coach him as hard as you want to.
