Four Shipp?
UCLA hoops coach Ben Howland said last week senior Josh Shipp may be asked to play power forward in spurts this season. During last week's media day, I asked Shipp what he was hearing about that.
"I didn't hear that," Shipp said. "Whatever it takes for the team to win. Can they guard me at the four? It's a possibility (to play there), but I don't think it's going to happen. If it does, I have to play it."
About Inside UCLA
This is Brian Dohn's sixth season covering UCLA after spending 4 1/2 years covering the Dodgers for the Daily News and other Los Angeles Newspaper Group papers. He graduated from Rutgers, where the first college football game was played in 1869. Sure, the Scarlet Knights suffered for a long time, but now RU is doing what Jerseyans always thought was possible. Winning at Rutgers also proves winning is possible everywhere else in the nation, so underachieving coaches better be careful. Now, if only men's hoops can turn it around.
