Earlier this week I was just rambling on about Tribe basketball to my wife as I normally do, and she was nodding her head as she normally does to make me happy. At some point I told her that, while I was hardly a coach, I wondered if Coach Shaver would ever consider keeping Nate more on the low post on offense and put Justin at the top of the key, This was before Justin had the game of his carrer at Towson from the perimeter, which sort of made me rethink my position. My thought was that since Justin was not quite the perimeter threat of Cohn, Burchfield, and Milan, this would give him a great chance to define his own identity in the offense. He can certainly pass out of that position as well as Nate, he could use his wonderful athleticism to drive by defenders that guard him too closely, and he could hit that little shot from about 12 feet away. But the biggest reason that I thought about the change was that maybe it would stop Nate from getting those obligatory TWO MOVING SCREEN FOULS EACH GAME!!!

Justin was fantastic this week. Just one more thing for opposing coaches to have to plan for

I just wonder what last year's team would have done with this year's heart. This is the toughest, most resilient bunch that i have ever watched play. I am so proud of the way that they have played this year.
