I agree, the offense will go through Maxiell.

Whaley will basically "plug a Hole" and back up the D so people don't get to go to the hoop like they did.

Again, even with this years team, it wasn't totally the absence of a Center, it was more the absence of a LEADER...

Obviously Whaley is a VERY welcome addition, but I don't see how he can be the player with the MOST impact.

I see the offense moving through Maxiell myself. Whaley will have to prove
something before he is the focal point.
