Tom Whitehead, a junior college transfer who previously had been on a two year Mormon mission has quit the Creighton team and has gone home. Sounds like the Creighton staff thought he would not get much PT. This leaves Creighton with three players over 6-5.

What are his height & weight?
Instead of enrolling in a junior college, Whitehead chose to go on a two-year Mormon mission. After fulfilling his mission work, Whitehead enrolled at Yavapai College, a two-year school in Prescott, Ariz., in 2007. He averaged 22 points and eight rebounds a game and earned the Arizona Community College Athletic Conference freshman of the year award.

having shorter players than 6'5 does sound quite famillarComment

Take this with a grain of salt as it is not from the horses mouth to my ears but it is from a horse who I know for a fact has friends on the team and there is some discontent here among the team from the fact that a player or two have been given great latitude and some things have been overlooked regarding sometimes immature behavior while others get a serious dose of tough love or, in this case seemingly, shown the door.
Internal strife will not lead to successful basketball.

I must admit that the idea of playing Creighton has become more appealing.
Kenny Lawson Jr. 6-9, 225 vs. Ehimen Orukpe 7-0, 220
Kenton Walker 6-8, 220 vs. Garrett Stutz, 6-11+, 235+
Chad Millard 6-8, 220 vs. Aaron Ellis, 6-7++, 197+
Casey Harriman 6-5, 205 vs. Ramon Clemente, 6-6, 221
ETC.

New CU players?
Justin Carter, 6'4", 200
We also have confirmed that Creighton has signed 6'4 Justin Carter from Fullerton (JC) CA, who is ranked #33 in the junior college ranks by JucoJunction.com and was the California Junior College Player-of-the-Year this past season. And Carter is exactly what the doctor ordered to replace Keeling when he reneged on the Bluejays, because he's a tough hardnosed slashing multi-dimensional athlete who rebounds well for his size, has good ball handling and passing skills in the open court, plays excellent defense, and has a knack for drawing the foul and getting to the line. page 9 of the thread.
Josh Jones, 6'2", ??

Not being picky, but Coach Marshall said Aaron was 6-9, not 6-7. He said he did not know how the 6-7 idea got started.
I personally heard it from his lips.Comment

Perhaps it is from the roster on Goshockers.com. Seems that the staff would have some sort of review of this info before it is published.Originally posted by Ricky Del RioComment

Discussing Creighton's roster transfers on Shockernet?
And yes, Ricky is correct, from the horse's mouth comes 6'9" on Ellis.

Actually we have all the heights that I require on my "dream team"..
6'9", 7', 6'6", 6'5"
Now if Ellis was 250 and a power forward, Ramon was a legitimate slasher (he could still turn out to one based on the summer reports), and one of the 7 footers gets to about 275, develops bad body odor and a very bad attitude (towards opposition), my dreams could finally come true.

When we own Altman next year (2008-9), I want to be able to point out (to CU fans) exactly why. :DOriginally posted by C0|dB|00dedSome posts are not visible to me. :peaceful:
