Veteran transfers don't normally lead so soon. Julius Mays is both a leader and big brother to Archie Goodwin who should end up being one of the starting guards. He loves the role. “He's really like my baby brother I never had,” says Mays. “It's really enjoying to take someone like that under my wing. I never got to experience me being taken under anyones wing so to come in and take a young guy like him and help him mature at this level is a great thing.” For today, for Cal, it's a grind. “I'm tired,” says Cal. “I'm beat down. Because every moment you're trying to think of ways how to get guys better, what are you doing. I'm having more individual meetings then I've had collectively since I've been the coach here already and how many, what are we 21 days of practice. But that's what this team needs and that's fine.
