Re: Iup basketball
I see Malik as the star in waiting. My personal opinion is red-shirt all freshmen unless they are of the very rare variety or you have no choice.
Malik has that size and speed that's pretty rare for a D2 guard. He's got a little chippiness to him, too, that didn't start to show until late last year. A year in now I'd expect to see him be the defensive stopper this year amongst the guards. True freshmen play very timid and think too much. Think back to Dante and even Cobo. That should be behind him now. Once he cuts loose he's going to be a big-time player.
His feisty demeanor off the bench sparked that comeback in the PSAC game against Ship.
Hutton is the wildcard. His minutes went to the tank as the season wore on last year. He can play ... just didn't have much of a role. He's a good defender.
I'd still prefer Glover at PG and Dante at SG.
