🧵📝 Notes from HC Matt Wells Preseason Presser 3:

- Unrelenting, clear coaching identity & expectations. Sentiment lauded by Hamzat.
- Youth Excitement: Wayne(!), Jackson, Syd, KSB.
- Syd’s versatility as much a strength as need for shaping—trained all but GK so far (LB today).

I’m sure Don Lemon and Georgia Fort being arrested has absolutely nothing to do with Trump going after targets that are easy. Whether you use the FACE Act or the KKK Act, there was no attack on a church or Christianity.

Some highlights from @5280Keith from today's media availability with Colorado Rapids head coach Matt Wells:

-The Bassett deal moved quickly over the past 24 hours. There will be a period of change. Change is always uncomfortable. Will be a good opportunity for the team

Keith’s on it—we talked last season about the “moving back home after college” of returning to Colorado from Europe.

Glad Cole got to be a big bro for Sam’s last DU years & fulfill their dream of playing together.

Perfect time to spread his wings again personally & professionally. #Rapids96
In some unexpected news, it looks like Cole Bassett will be leaving the Colorado Rapids. He's the best homegrown in club history. I discuss whether it's the right time for him and the Rapids to move on.
