Richmond game stories

[QUOTE][B]The 49ers and 6-foot-9 Blinn College (Texas) sophomore Erik Whitehurst have mutually agreed to rescind the national letter of intent Whitehurst signed to join the 49ers next season, school officials confirmed Wednesday night.

Whitehurst, from Chesapeake, Va., was a consensus top 100 recruit out of high school. Although he had been performing well, Whitehurst had developed some back problems the past several months, several sources confirmed.

Whitehurst’s departure leaves the 49ers two remaining scholarships to fill for next season.[/B] - Jim Utter[/QUOTE]

It looks like the Richmond Times Dispatch lists VCU at the top for college basketball coverage. Richmond is 2nd, then Va Tech, then Virginia.

By the way is anyone else thinking now that Jamison should of started on last years team, he could of really made a difference on the defense and energy side.

It may be on my list of biggest 3 starter misses in the history of 49er basketball:

  1. Demarco Johnson not starting and playing more minutes as a freshmen, that was a Mullins issue, he would get like 8 minutes per game and score at will. It was unforunate because we had a very good team that year, and could of been much better. Once he was a sophmore everyone figured out how good he was.

  2. Vincent Grier as a freshmen, should of had starter minutes, he was that good. All big 10 as a junior.
