Back on court, Brandon Paul wants consistency
August 13, 2012 10:31 AM
"It was rough," Paul said on Saturday. "As much as I eat and talk, it was a different approach to things. It could be a lot worse, though. A lot of people are in worse situations than I was in. I didn't want to take anything for granted.
"My jaw is getting a lot better. I came up on Monday (to train.) It's been pretty good. I lost about 15 pounds, but I've put most of it back on in the last week or so."
Paul's offseason training was derailed by his injury, but he's confident his game will still take a significant step next season. As a junior, Paul's numbers nearly all increased, but he wasn't satisfied. Like many around him, Paul was frustrated with himself as he showed at times he could be a special college player and at others times was very ordinary.
