Taj update
Taj Gibson said he increased his weight from 210 to 224 pounds in offseason workouts and measured in at 6-foot-9 without shoes.
He talked about the team practicing twice a day in preparation for the Mexico trip: ``It's rough but I know it will help us in the long run. That's why we really appreciate this time. We'll learn plays, learn defense and learn to take care of the ball so that when the season comes we should be ready.''
Matthew Kredell broke into the Daily News in 1998, working part time
at the paper while going to USC. The basketball team’s Elite Eight
run in 2000-01 was USC’s athletic highlight in his time at the
school, when the football team was stuck in the Paul Hackett-era.
After graduating in 2001, he started writing for the Daily News full
time. He’s in his second year covering USC, which coincides with the
rise of the program. He’ll take credit for the success, though Tim
Floyd may have more to do with it. A third-generation Los Angelean,
he grew up reading the Daily News while at El Camino Real High School
in Woodland Hills.
