recruiting violations in the past aside I have the utmost respect for Kelvin Sampson as a basketball coach.  He has a keen eye for 3 star talent and always puts together teams that are incredibly difficult to play against and coaches his butt off ( and as an aside he was all class with his love fest with CV at center court after game last night, just another reason I like him).............Hes a really good basketball coach.

so there was no bigger compliment to Whaley than seeing  (and I could be wrong havent watched replay of game yet, this was just observation from the seats) Houston   did not run one Pick and Roll with Whaley's man. Whaley hedges so high and so hard and recovers so quick he creates absolute havoc for teams trying to get into easy offense.  He is insanely disruptive to the PnR.    Sampson definitely scouted that and it was a high compliment to Whaley that they didnt bother.  Houston spreads and dribble drives more than PnR anyway but you would think you would see a couple sets.
