as people say. Checko showed me a lot vs. Wisconsin and he is just coming into his own. Clearly the strength of our team is Jake, Melo and Dez, but I think with our bigs we are very competitive with everyone but Wisconsin in the B10. Dodd stops most all of the easy layups and Checko can do the same. I would only bring Evan in when free throwing is key. Do we have a complete center? Not yet but we have guys who can do a very servicable and occassionally dominant job. One thing that strikes me is I feel Turge is always matching up with the other teams strength which is often speed and I would like to see us take advantage of our size inside where Indiana, for example, cannot match up. Let them try to beat us with contested jumpers, but not layups.
