White = the inside out game Connie was so successful with + a big body to hit the boards. Shepard + White = a banger down low and a 4 who can jump out to 15-20 ft and knock down a shot. Remember how successful that was with the Griffin/Montgomery combo. Who knows what happened to create the resignation, but the offense was pretty stale the last couple years on the basketball side. I think Connie got punked by a few folks and this year the players were just too young to play through a little adversity. Sometimes you hit the wall and even the best just need to move on.
