Re: No talk of Whaley?

[tj1cj2]

We found out last year how much we need another scoring presence inside for
another scoring option and to free up Max to do his thing.  Whaley will be
missed because other teams still had to prepare to guard him.  They will now
focus soley on Max in the post.  Whaleys development was coming.  He is
adjusting to another level of ball and to a coach who expects the best on
both ends of the floor and on the boards.  It would not have surprised me if
it took into '04 to see the player in Whaley we read about.  This setback
slows his development down.  He will be really missed vs. Clemson as Oliver
Purnell will give the 'Cats fits with a sound gameplan, size and
athleticism.  Valpo will be tough tonight.  Kareem has improved from last
year and will hopefully get the job done on the boards.  Hope we are done
with our injuries for this searson.
