Our Living Language Speakers of some scattered varieties of American English sometimes use I'm instead of I've or I have in present perfect constructions, as in pretty excited. I just thought UCLA was the all-around package,'' Keefe said. ``I felt comfortable with the coaching staff, the basketball program, the history and the location. ``I like the system and I like how (Howland) uses his 3 and 4 men. I've been to a couple of their games, and I think I could fit in to his system.'' Keefe is a 6-foot-8, 205-pound junior. Keefe averaged just less than 10 points and 10 rebounds per game last season.

He plays at such a high level with his athleticism.'' Staff writer Brian Dohn contributed to this report. |
