BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- Richard Lagow has the size and the pedigree to be Indianas next starting quarterback.Zander Diamont has more experience working within the offense.Now Lagow, the highly-touted junior college transfer, and Diamont, the former backup turned replacement starter, will spend the next few month trying to impress coach Kevin Wilson and offensive coordinator Kevin Johns.Im not going to be equal and Im not trying to be fair (with snaps), Wilson said Wednesday at Indianas annual media day. A few years ago, I tried to be equal and fair and all I did was make everyone mad and egos got involved.Maybe well play more than one, Wilson added. But I do think, looking at it, Diamont and Lagow will get the bulk starting out.None of the five quarterbacks was available to reporters.Lagow appears to be the early favorite.He has prototypical size at 6-foot-6, 240 pounds and has Division I experience, too. He signed with UConn in 2013 recruiting class but left before the season began, partly because of a coaching change and partly because of a crowded depth chart.Eventually, Lagow walked on at Oklahoma State before landing at Cisco Community College in his home state of Texas in 2014. There, he threw for 4,506 yards and 38 touchdowns as a two-year starter.Indiana liked the fact Lagow was dubbed one of the best pocket passers in junior college and signed him last winter, in time to get him on campus for spring football. Thats all Wilson has seen so far.Rich has a big arm, he can really make throws, receiver Mitchell Paige said. Hes athletic and he has all the tools.Diamont is a dynamic runner who started the last six games of 2014 after Indianas top two quarterbacks went down with season-ending injuries. He made one start last season when Nate Sudfeld got hurt. In two seasons, Diamont is just 79 of 163 for 681 yards with one TD and four interceptions.But after spending all that time learning Indianas offense and fine-tuning his skills in it, the 6-1, 174-pound former Los Angeles City player of the year missed the entire spring after having ankle surgery.Even if he loses out to Lagow, though, the Hoosiers still plan to use Diamont in other ways.If a third quarterback enters the picture, it will probably be Danny Cameron, the son of former Indiana head coach and current LSU offensive coordinator Cam Cameron. The younger Cameron made his college debut in relief of Diamont against Penn State last season and went 6 of 16 with 65 yards and one interception.But nobody is dropping hints about who took the lead into Wednesdays first practice or when a final decision might be made.Indiana opens its season Sept. 1 at Florida International.Each one brings a little different niche to the table, All-American guard Dan Feeney said. I think Rich is a taller guy who can see everything. Hes pretty athletic and hes got a nice competitive edge. Zander is athletic and has a competitive edge and experience.Its the only significant question on an offense that led Indiana to its first bowl game in eight years.Devine Redding is expected to take over as the starting halfback after rushing for 1,012 yards as Jordan Howards backup last season, and sophomore Brandon Knight is expected to start at left tackle following the graduation of All-American Jason Spriggs. Knight played in 11 games last season and earned honorable mention all-freshman honors.Everybody else returns -- except the quarterback.Its a competition in everything they do, Johns said. Well watch warm-ups, well watch them in meetings. Its not just how they play on the field, its everything. At the end of the day, we feel like well probably have to play all of them anyway.

Didier Drogba gave away the penalty that put Senegal one goal away from a major upset, but the veteran striker will get another chance -- probably his last -- at the World Cup after Salomon Kalous injury-time strike sealed the Ivorians place in Brazil next year. LAS VEGAS -- Its July, and its the NBA Summer League.But Saturday night the Thomas and Mack Center felt more like a playoff game, with a near-capacity crowd taking in the Philadelphia 76ers and the Los Angeles Lakers, as the game featured the top two picks from last months NBA Draft.No. 1 pick Ben Simmons, who made his Summer League debut with the 76ers last week in Salt Lake City, had his first run-in with second pick Brandon Ingram.While Simmons seemingly won the battle on the stat sheet, it was Ingrams assist with 1.8 seconds left in the game that led to DAngelo Russells buzzer beater that lifted the Lakers to a 70-69 victory.Simmons finished with 8 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists. Ingram had just seven points and four rebounds.There was a lot of hype coming into this game. Youre trying to get the jitters out and try to play the game, but I think there was a lot of energy in the building tonight, Ingram said. The game doesnt end until the clock is out (and) I just know DAngelo is a good player and he just knocked down a big shot.Though the Sixers played in Salt Lake Citys Summer League, and the Lakers played incredibly Friday night in their league-opener, both teams appeared rattled from the opening tip, in the national spotlight for a matchup that has been hyped since last months draft.Both Simmons and Ingram came out aggressive early on feeling they needed to impress a national television audience as well as those in attendance. Nevertheless, with the Salt Lake Summer League under his belt, Simmons said he wasnt bothered by the crowd or the ballyhooed showdown between him and Ingram.It was Lakers versus Philly tonight, whoever you matchup against youre trying to go hard, Simmons said. I came out last night (to the Lakers game) so I knew they were going to go crazy every lay-up. Thats L.A. fans for you, theyre great.Russell created the first exciting moment of the game when he drove past the 76ers defense to the right side of the basket, and stuffed a left-handed slam dunk at the 4:38 mark. It sparked a little bit of ribbing betweenn him and Simmons, as the two were teammates at Montverde Academy in Florida.dddddddddddd At one point in the first half, Simmons got in Russells ear after Lakers power forward Larry Nance Jr. collected his fourth foul, while Russell pawed at the ball before Simmons was able to inbound under the basket another time.Thats my guy, Russell said of Simmons. Win or lose, we know what we went through to get to this point. Going to high school, we know how tough it was. But Bens going to be a great player.Though this was Russells second year at the Summer League, the 6-foot-5 guard said even he had jitters in front of the raucous crowd. Last years single-day attendance record of 12,422 was shattered with a reported 16,208 in attendance on Saturday.This crowd is so electric and it definitely makes you nervous; coming out in the beginning of the game I had jitters, so I cant imagine what (Ingram) had, Russell said. It gets easier, and Ill keep preaching to him that it only gets easier and hell be fine.Lakers coach Luke Walton was all smiles, as well, with a packed house to cheer on his team, which is now 2-0 after the first two days, and how it persevered both nights.The Laker fans are some of the best in all of sports. From what I can remember playing preseason games here 15 years ago, it was always like this. Weve had great support in this city and to hear them cheer and see the numbers show up, it was great, Walton said. But to me most importantly is we competed and thats the attitude I want us to have. To see the young guys get after it in a Summer League game is really encouraging. Were just getting a gauge on where Brandon is, its a big jump into the NBA for a kid his age. Hes a phenomenal defender. Hes long, he gets his hands on the ball and gets a lot of deflections. Just to see him play within the offense and do all the things hes done for us is incredible, in that a guy that young knows how to do that already.
