Hips are pretty hard to teach. It’s 90% natural fluidity and ability.

I will say, he looks really stiff in the torso, he'll have a hell of a time in coverage because he can't twist. Quite unusual, normally kids are stiff in the hips not in the ribs.
Isn't that why we have Aaron Feld and his staff? I don't pretend to be a talent evaluator but I have seen numerous comments by Mario that the kids have a lot more flexibility than under Slick's S&C program. Isn't there potential for a lot of improvement by an 18 year old kid in the right conditioning regime?
Of course

But things like that don't necessarily change

I would liken 'stiff hips' that affect a player's ability to change direction to a QB's arm strength or a player's speed/quickness. With improved form or strength, it can improve, but it's generally something you're gifted or you're not.

Exactly, some (like me) are blessed with inherently great hips.

Are your hips as good as Tyree Robinson though.
