[QUOTE="Obelix, post: 1435098, member: 7292"] Kipper is not a 4 or a 5, he simply is not a post or inside player or even a stretch 4, he is a small forward (3). Black was not a center either, yet we were forced to play him in the post pretty much the entire season last year. He did well, but it was not the best for his career prospects after college and it showed in the lack of interest after college. If nothing else, constantly playing players out of position most of their careers (e.g., Malcolm, Leron, Kipper) is more hurting them than helping them, and team results are not good either. Unless we close those positional gaps with better, consistent recruiting, the same thing will keep on happening. [/QUOTE]
