Ben Doody gets some good quotes from TOT on the dddition of Max and Mamadou.

"The team is looking forward to both Witt and Mamdou [entering the lineup because] they will help inside, especially defensively," O'Toole said.

"[Maxwell and Diakhate] can also score inside and when we lost Marty and Nate [Hawkins '09, who tore his ACL in November and is out for the season], it became more evident that we needed help in there, not only on defense, but on the offensive side as well."

"We were asking guys to play positions that they have never played before, and do it against very good competition," O'Toole said. "However, I think those lessons that were learned the hard way will somehow pay off for us down the road, especially once conference play begins."

Doody also commnets on Max as follows "Maxwell is just 6'5" but coaches describe him as a player with an uncommon ability to overcome height disadvantages with a formula of athleticism and grit". IMO, Maxwell get his hands on a lot of rebounds, and if he does not get them himself, he tends to keep them alive for others to grab.

I hope the normal Max shows up tonight.
