5fouls Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 Dakich wanted me to tell everyone that he started at least one game in all 4 of his years at IU. https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/players/dan-dakich-2.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hulls, his freshman year played in all the games. But did not start in all of them. 7 minutes ago, KoB2011 said: I don't think you have to start every single game to be considered a starter. That seems to be an unnecessarily difficult criteria. Correct. If the question was who started every single game during his stay at IU, that would be a different question. A guy like DJ is a more interesting question. Injury and only injury held him back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However then, that would make what Quinn accomplished, all the more impressive.... starting in every game of his IU career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an incredibly rare a accomplishment and one that deserves it's in special praise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I venture to guess, he may be the last to do that at IU, considering players who leave early for the NBA these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is similar to Jordy in that he had one season he only started about half the games. In Johnson's case, it was sophomore year he started after Blackmon got injured. In Hulls' case it was his freshman year after Creek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that qualifies him as a 4 year starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoosierBGH Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 19 hours ago, 5fouls said: Yeah. Alford did not even start every singe game of his career. I think starting 70% or so of the games each year would be how I would classify it. 19 hours ago, rico said: Sounds good to me. In that case you can scratch AJ Guyton off of the list, he didn't start until late in the season of his freshmen year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
