Some fans are like that. Capo just is not nearly as talented as Krabbenhoft. He may work just as hard, but the talent is severely lacking. Capo will be buried on the bench behind Elston (who is the real deal), Pritchard, Watford, etc. He will be lucky if he ever averages 8.2 minutes let alone points.

Krabbenhoft averaged 8.2 points and 6.7 rebounds per game as a senior. He also provided defense and some intangibles. But I see no reason why Capo can't get to that level.

Capo may be able to give some valuable minutes deep off the bench, but he does not have anywhere near the talent of a Krabbenhoft. No, Krabbenhoft was a 4 star high level recruit.

I'm not sure Capo will be as mobile, but I think Capo could end up being stronger. I think that would be great if he gave us that kind of energy and physicality.

Darryl Thomas averaged 15 points a game as a senior. He scored 20 in the title game against, as you noted, Derrick Coleman, who played in the NBA for how long? It's always been funny to me how time changes things...players either become a lot better or a lot worse than they actually were. I know it was 22 years ago, but Thomas, when finally able to play his natural position b/c of Dean Garrett's arrival, was an outstanding player. If Capo puts up half those numbers as a senior, IU will be lucky...in other words, about what Jarrad Odle did, which I think is a far better projection.

Thomas set the tough picks, defended the other teams PF ( Syracuse's Derrick Coleman ) , passed the ball , rebounded or at least blocked out, could hit the mid range , hit his foul shots.................all round a solid player but not spectacular. W/O him we would have had no chance against SYracuse. On the Alford championship team we had a PF named Thomas who is what I think Capo can become.

I have also been impressed with the video that I have seen on him. I think that his shooting touch for a guy his size is amazing, and will really help the team out (I remember him hitting 3's in transition from of the tapes). I'm also glad that he and Elston bring some big strong bodies that we were missing last year. I really like all that I am hearing about Capo.
