WITHEY AND ELLIS WILL HELP KANSAS UNIVERSITY BECOME NATIONAL CHAMPS.
Posted March 21, 2013
on:I’m predicting KU will win it all PROVIDING they don’t experience a problem like they did last year with Jeff Withey. As you may recall in that final game against Kentucky Withey, who is 7 feet tall, scored only 5 points and had a sub-par performance. A lot of coaches and basketball pundits will tell you that he just happened to have a bad game but I don’t buy that. A great player like Withey doesn’t just happen to have a bad game unless there’s a reason, and I believe that reason may have involved an off-court problem with his girlfriend the night before the game. Off-court problems for male college athletes almost always involve a member of the opposite sex. So I would bet the kitchen sink that last year, the night before the Kentucky game, Withey had an argument with his girlfriend that he didn’t tell anyone about and kept it bottled up inside himself. And as we all know, when athletes withhold it’s a form of lying that demeans them and creates baggage that affects their ability to focus. But the opposite is also true: When athletes are happy and their lives are in harmony, they will perform close to their skill levels on a consistent basis. So if Withey and his girlfriend are getting along famously, look for him to have a great post-game run that will result in KU winning the national championship. And the fact that 6’ 8” freshman Perry Ellis’ game has improved remarkably since the beginning of the season will only add to the Jayhawks’ success.
