"GMU, VCU and the Monarchs are considered the top three teams in the CAA." I agree.

I perfer to focus on this part of the article, regarding Timmy's new attitude this year:


Said Whitworth: "Coach kept telling me that I was relying too much on my jump shot. He said I should get some easy baskets first, get to the foul line, get some layups. Then that opens up the jump shot."

I agree with Bruiser here. Last year, he was thinking about his shot way too much. I think focusing on other things such as driving the hole and crashing the boards is helping him relax with his jumper.

[Mr. Jablomi]

It's amazing how in hoops, if a guy is struggling from outside, but can get a couple of layups/easy baskets, he starts knocking down the outside shot as well.
Whitworth is a pretty good player. I wonder who Taylor will put on him tomorrow.
