Disturbing if true Tayton was whining about usage, and liking posts in support of that. Tayton said some positive things midseason about the team and coaches gameplan after a game. Too bad if he feels sour now.
But Tayton played 8 minutes, so the coaches just keep doing their job as they see it. Im good with that.
Enright might know Devries system but he is a liability. Nice kid who works his ass off but has low mid-major talent. No way Enright is a starter in the B10 (even if he's a good assist guy). Conerway has to be very disappointed.
Conerway was a bad fit from the beginning. Has horse blinders on, often only sees players in front of him, open players on the side are invisible . Over penetrates constantly looking to score then gets in the air with nothing there. Walks the ball down the court slowly and in half court sets he freezes the ball too much, No one knows when to run an action because he may just hold the ball and any off ball screen/cut is basically wasted. Also, gambles way too much on defense.. Horrible fit for what IU wants to do offensively.
He's easily a better individual player than Enright, but the team runs better without him.
Tayton hass not fully recovered from the injury.
@courtsense then why is he even playing double-digit minutes at times. That is coaching malpractice as well.
Tayton was Sun Belt Player of the Year (2024-25) and had a reputation as an elite defender. In a Mike Schumann article for The Daily Hoosier, Schumann noted Conerway played 3 seasons at the JUCO level prior to his 2 years at Troy. To quote Schumann from that 4/16/25 article: "Conerway has at least one year of eligibility remaining, maybe more."
Conerway isn't coming back for another year at IU as there would have been a lot of talk going on these last few months. He participated in the senior day festivities.
Too bad it didn't work out better for him and IU basketball during his time as a Hoosier.
@thehoosierhuddle He can play, and DD needed the minutes. And since he apparently hates Sisley, TC got more...but he is not where he was early season.
@courtsense Things just don't add up there with me. Sisley is a whole different story and I think they wasted an opportunity to get him some in game development or at least see what you have for the future. But TC...as my late father used to ask what's wrong with this picture?
"Sun Belt Player of the Year" apparently doesn't always translate to being an impact player in the B1G.
@ams66 It should land somewhere between non-factor and All-Big Ten though.
