Whitehead Injured

Damn, idk how you guys feel but I want him to be available against us.
I'm certainly not happy he is injured, but look forward to pressuring Sina, Carrington & Gibbs forcing TOs. Big loss for SH.
@John_Fanta: Whitehead was averaging 11.9 pts, 4.3 reb, 3.4 assists per game. Pirates have to retool offense for now w/o 2-time Big East Rookie of the Wk
no one feels sorry for st johns. when dj kennedy was hurt in the BE game against the Cuse (a game I still think we win if he stays in the game) and he couldnt play in the NCAA, I didnt see Mark Few of Gonzaga upset about it or hoping DJ could play. Injuries are part of the game. But if it means an advantage to st johns I will take it and not feel sorry for anyone.
This kid had a chance to stay home and play for a good St. John's team. He chose not too and instead went to out near rival. I want him to play because it would mean that much more and create a lot more buzz, not because it would mean a better challenge.
The kid and his coach played the crap out of us 13 months ago and let us down horribly. Having said that I wish him no ill will but neither do I wish him all the success in the world. If his being out against us puts us in a better chance to win so be it and to possibly be at 13-1 at the half way point in the season which continues to exceed our expectations. Rest assured the rest of the big east and anyone else on our schedule was doubled over with laughter when Krith Thomas and Adonis were both declared ineligible within a week of another.
The bottom line is just win and go Red Storm. Merry Christmas to all.

i would rather beat seton hall with whitehead healthy. They way he was recruited just irks me. He was definitely ours until the very last minute.
Now if we win SHU fans have that excuse for the next month and a half until we play again.
Would those of you that still complain about the Tiny hiring/whitehead commit have cared if Lavin had hired a HS coach in order to get a top flight recruit? I know I wouldn't have. Would you guys have given a damn if Lavin added Briscoe's HS coach to the staff at the last minute and we got Isiah away from Cal? I highly doubt it. In fact I could care less if Lavin filled his staff with asst coaches who have pipelines to the top HS and AAU programs in the area//country. Wasn't CO all but a lock for Cinci(?) when, at the last minute and for whatever reason, he decided to commit to us? This stuff happens all the time. Lets face it, alls fair in love and recruiting, as long as its within NCAA guidelines.
