Colorado State made Indiana State’s first journey into the Mountain West-Missouri Valley Conference Challenge a daunting one as the Rams were neck-and-neck with the Sycamores into the final minute.

Indiana State’s men’s basketball team has plenty of that. So do many other college basketball programs. It’s quality of depth that matters. If someone comes off the bench and there’s an immediate dropoff, or, if they can’t lift the team if the players they replaced on the floor are struggling, what does it matter how many bodies a team has?

The ISU offense? Not evident. The Sycamore defense? Not present. The special teams? Not special.

It’s something one rarely hears in the circles of collegiate athletics. But that’s what Indiana State coach Kevin McKenna had for the organization on Friday … and why not? The NCAA re-visited its two-game suspension it levied on ISU swingman Dwayne Lathan on Monday and reduced it to one game.
