Does this make Kitchell the man in the middle this season?

Sounds like he will miss a good portion of the year and potentially the entire season. Tough Break for Indiana State.

ISU center Michael Samuels, a junior college transfer, and the heir apparent to former starter Myles Walker, broke his right foot during the trip.

According to ISU coach Greg Lansing, Samuels’ injury not a fracture, but his foot “cracked completely”. Samuels will have surgery on Monday.

It will be shared by Kitchell and Gant. They will play together on the floor at times with Kitchell at the 5 and Gant the 4 but they both will spend time playing the center position.
