Whipple was actually leading the team in hitting when he had his off the field issue which resulted in his suspension.

Yeah now I remember, he loved Mary Jane a bit too much. Didn't we also have a kid with the first name Les that left for personal reasons?

Les Smith. Left after his freshman season so he could get drafted earlier.

And, just for accuracy, it wasn't Mary Jane that did Whipple in. It was too much of a legal substance.

Les ended up getting drafted by the Tigers and signed. Spent a year at a Juco after his freshman year here.

Leading the team in HR's too, if I remember correctly.

My point above, was between turnover, lack of development, suspension, attitude...etc.... I don't think we can expect to see the same 8 underclassmen starting 2 years from now. Would be nice though.
