Last year, Shaka Smart drew headlines by putting his players and staff through Seal Team training. He’s back at it. This week, the team has endured 5:00 AM roll calls for Seal Team calibur workouts, which includes swimming through the probably frigid cold James River.

Seal Team training is no joke – getting through this week will help newcomers Jordan, Mo, Justin, and Melvin get an understanding of the physical endurance required for 40 minutes in Shaka’s HAVOC system. Last year’s training made a star out of Briante Weber – Shaka said he was relentless and unbelievably energetic. He went only to draw praise from Jay Bilas’ who said he should be defensive player of the year by the end of his college career.
