Joe must teach James to defend without fouling

Because of our lack of size, James White is probably the player we can least afford to have in foul trouble. Because he is our leading returning shot blocker (and very athletic), he is going to feel some responsibility to defend the rim. That is good to a point, but we cannot afford for him to get past that point. So, Coach Kleine is going to have to work hard at teaching James how to defend aggressively without fouling, and that is a fine line.
