DIPRIMIO: Phinisee Staying Healthy Key for IU

IUHoosiers.com

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- The goal is as clear as it is complex:

Keep Rob Phinisee healthy.

If Indiana does that, if the sophomore guard can blast past the injury bad luck that has plagued him so often as an Indiana Hoosier, look out.

Phinisee is a stabilizer, a good decision maker, a guy who makes shots, passes accurately, dribbles efficiently and defends aggressively.

Phinisee can't offensively dominate in the manner of teammate Devonte Green (his career high is 17 points, 13 fewer than Green), but he can facilitate to the point of team excellence.
