Louisville seems to be jelling and doing well too. I decided to look into their roster makeup. I didn’t realize how many “old” players they have. Agau started at UL then transferred everywhere before returning while Sutton transferred after his freshman year.

Akoy Agau (Georgetown, SMU) (25 years old)
Christen Cunningham (Samford) (23 years old)
Kwan Fore (Richmond) (23 years old)
Steven Enoch (Connecticut) (21 years old)
Dwayne Sutton (UNC Asheville) (21 years old)

Agau doesn't really play more than spot minutes but those other 4 see a lot of action... UofL fans were dreading this season coming into it but they got very good Grad Transfers in Cunningham & Fore.... if not for those 2 guys they would be struggling... they also have a lot of shooters on the roster....

If only our Grad Transfer would have worked out for what he was recruited for...

Definitely something to be said for age and experience in college basketball.

What it gets down to is the two can coach and recognize talent.  Check out Nevada.  Why do I keep thinking the "Island of Misfit Toys?"

He doesn’t play much but I imagine his perspective in the locker room is quite different than what we have. He was at Uof6 then transferred to several different schools before returning.

I’m not saying our senior leaders shouldn’t be better, they absolutely should be, but having multiple guys in your locker room that have “been around the block” certainly helps. I believe McBob is our oldest player, maybe 22/23, then Fitz and JMo at 21, and Davis and Green at 21.

Beard won in year 1? 18-14 (6-12) is winning? Why are you all over Archie then if that is the case? 

You better check with Arkansas-Little Rock on that.  30-5 and beat Purdue in the tournament.

So we're comparing winning at Arkansas-Little Rock to winning at IU in the B1G. Wokay

All I know is they are winning at Texas Tech and Louisville.  Wokay.

He didn't win in year 1 at Tech. Keep your arguments straght

18-14 ain't winning?  Hmmmm.  2nd year.....EE, hmmmmmm.  And I have no argument.  Beard, so far, has excelled every where he has been.

Nope. You don't have one, you keep jumping all over the place. Now we're talking about his second year. And since when is 18-14 considered winning. It isn't

Maybe not at IU....but that is a nice season at Texas Tech.  And yeah, it is a winning record.

New Mexico tried the misfits thing. Got Carlton Bragg and JaQuan Lyle. Lyle has been hurt though.

That's worked wonderful for them.  I would rather endure a few rough seasons and build a consistent contender over piecing together a lineup every season.  That didn't seem to work the last time we did that.
