I really like Tindal - always have. That being said, he played poorly down the stretch and was abused in the WKU game. Don't know if it's been said, but I have to believe he was playing injured the 2nd half of the year.

He was definitely injured. Had a huge brace on his elbow and had surgery on it after the season was over.

Good to know. Hope he is fully recovered. Still like him better as a nickel though.
