Basketball believes in life after Love

“Kevin was a big part of our success,” said senior guard Josh Shipp. “He was that guy who could get you 10 rebounds per game, and we don’t have that this year. Everyone has to take it upon themselves to get in there and get a lot more rebounds.”
Love averaged 17.5 points and 10.4 rebounds and was named Pac-10 Player of the Year. He left for the NBA after one season in Westwood.
The incoming freshman class, dubbed the “fab five,” was ranked the best in the country, and possibly the best since the Wooden era. I’m looking forward to seeing Jrue Holiday and J’Mison Morgan play tomorrow at Madison Square Garden against Michigan.
