Lanning on development of young players:
“I think we have a young group that's a really mature group. And there's a lot of guys you walk in that locker room, you walk into a meeting room, in the training room, you see them preparing like vets, even though they might be freshmen," Lanning said.
“... But that also goes back to the leadership that we do have on our team, of veterans, of those guys, be able to see what it looks like, how they have to prepare, and then good evaluation, good development of those guys put in a position to be able to go play," Lanning continued.
