Pleasant was on Team Mauka and was a very active participant in all of the practice drills. In general the defensive backs didn't do some of the competitive drills you would like to see, like straight one-on-one's against the wide receivers. Most of what we saw from Pleasant when working with his position group was various footwork drills where Pleasant looked very good.

He's grabbing rebounds like a pre-mature Patrick Ewing and scoring every lay up with ease? And eventually, it gets to the point where the opposing coach is urging the ref to check his birth certificate?
