BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Archie Miller, a tough-as-nails point guard during his playing days at North Carolina State, knows what usually tells the tale in March.
"Guards win at this time of year," the Indiana coach said after his Hoosiers bowed out of their Big Ten tournament opener Thursday against Ohio State, 79-75.
That was in the wake of Miller watching OSU's two most experienced guards – graduate student Keyshawn Woods and senior C.J. Jackson – combine for 15 of 27 shooting, 35 points, 12 rebounds, five steals and nine assists against just three turnovers.
