BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Forget silence is golden.
In Archie Miller's Indiana basketball world, quiet gets you beat, loud gets things done.
"He's one of our loudest talkers," Miller says.
To thrive at the highest basketball levels, talk isn't cheap, it's crucial. And Durham, IU's sophomore guard, does his part during games and in practice, and it comes with coach-inspired purpose.
"He's our best communicator," Miller says.
Good teams are loaded with good communicators, and now that the Hoosiers (8-2) have cracked into the Associated Press top-25 poll (at No. 25) for the first time in the year-plus Miller era, both factors loom true.
