BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Defying the odds?
Yes, that's part of it, as Indiana senior forward Race Thompson plays to a potential only he and his coach once thought likely.
"I expect a lot from Race," coach Mike Woodson says, "and Race has come through. He's doing a lot of wonderful things. Things that some people thought he couldn't do when I got here. He's gotten better because he's put in the work and that's a testament to him."
As Indiana (10-2) resumes Big Ten play, Thompson defends ferociously, rebounds relentlessly, scores efficiently and even accepts some mini point-guard responsibility.
