NCAA Tournament Features: Louisville's Derrick Caracter Worth The Weight - Mar 26, 2007 | 13:19:16
posted by: Josh
It???s all in the family for the Louisville basketball program. Ellis Myles, the starting center on the team that went to the 2005 Final Four, returned to the program as an assistant strength coach this season. His impact was evident on the court as the Cardinals made it to the second round of the NCAA tournament, thanks in large part to the strong play of freshman Derrick Caracter. If not for the hard work Myles put in with Caracter, the freshman may never have made it on the floor this season and Louisville may not have made it to the tournament. After missing 16 of the team???s first 24 games, Derrick finally made his way into the rotation after losing more than 50 pounds. He averaged 7.8 points and 4.1 rebounds this and set the stage for a long, healthy career.

It means that two very good teams with very good coaches made it to the final game.
