Couldn't agree more. I always thought Kaputo got a lot of the minutes that Brockington should've gotten a couple years back. Maybe that could've played a factor in his decision to transfer to Penn State? He was probably going to transfer there no matter what once he got the mutual interest back since it's a Power 5 from his hometown area but still -- he must've been frustrated on the bench while the less-talented Kaputo took the minutes that he should've been playing.
Same with Ikpeze over Carptenter this season. Ikpeze seems like a nice kid, he plays hard, I have nothing bad to say about his work ethic. But, he's just not skilled as a basketball player. If he's in the game and gets fed the ball on the block, he is taking the shot ONE HUNDRED percent of the time, typically at a low percentage clip. As an opposing coach, my strategy going into each game would be: try to get Osun into foul trouble, then force Bona's to funnel the ball into Ikpeze.
I'm hoping we get more Carpenter down the stretch, at the very least in the interim minutes that Osun is on the bench.
