He's another big guard Danny Sprinkle deems necessary for Big Ten play.
Unfailingly a nice guy, Mike Hopkins still proved almost rude in doling out minutes as the University of Washington basketball coach. He rarely used more than eight guys in his game-night rotations, leaving capable players such as RaeQuan Battle, Marcus Tsohonis and most recently Nate Calemese to waste away on the bench and leave the team.
One of the new arrivals is North Dakota transfer Tyree Ihenacho -- dare anyone call him Nacho? -- who fits the Sprinkle mold for backcourt duty, that, at 6-foot-4 and 190 pounds, as an oversized playmaker. He's the last of the 10 new players to commit to the new UW coach. Last season, Ihenacho played in 22 games for North Dakota, missing 10 with an upper-body injury, and averaged 14.5 points, 5 rebounds and 3.9 assists an outing for an 18-14 team. He was a 40.1-percent shooter overall, but just 28.8 percent from behind the line.
