Coach Shields updated his website today
From his website today at Steveshields.com
June 7, 2010
Summer may be here, but there is still plenty of stuff going on at UALR. We coaches are preparing for summer camps and evaluation periods, while student-athletes are able to enjoy some time at home with their families. Most of our guys were gone by mid-May, with the exception of Marlon Louzeiro, Derrick Bails and Solmon Bozeman, who have elected to stay on campus and work with coach John Barron on their own.
The entire team, including our six new guys, will return back to campus on July 5 to start our last summer session on July 6. We’ve got a good balance in our incoming class with three high school guys and three junior college guys. They will be able to spend five weeks on campus before the school year starts and that is a very important time for the players, as they are permitted to work out with coach Barron and also have the opportunity to pick up six hours toward their degrees. The time they put in with coach Barron gives them a solid base from a strength and conditioning standpoint which will carry over into the fall semester.
For the coaches, our summer camps are right around the corner. We have back-to-back summer camp sessions in June, the first of which runs June 14-18 followed by June 21-25. Our mini-camp runs from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. Monday through Friday, with our regular camp going from 10:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. Our final camp session runs July 12-16. The format and times will all be the same for the July session, with the only difference being that we cannot have prospect-age kids participating in that camp due to NCAA regulations.
The summer evaluation period runs from July 6-15 and July 22-31, so we coaches will be back on the road looking at potential recruits.
As the season draws nearer, we are continuing to work on our 2010-11 schedule. We’ve got non-conference home games lined up with Louisiana Tech, Tulsa and Ole Miss, and road games against Oral Roberts and Missouri State. We’re still trying to find a few games that fit with the dates we have available.
That’s all for now. I’ll have more to say about our team once everyone reports back to campus. Enjoy your summer in the meantime!

All three of those are already pretty husky. If Marlon bulks up any more, he will be a monster!
