The news that Ohio State point guard D.J. Carton is taking time away from the Buckeye basketball program to attend to mental health issues hit home for IU head coach Archie Miller. He has seen the darkest side of the intersection of mental health and college athletics up close. “As a coach, I’ve had a few experiences with some guys that have had some trouble and lost a player, Matt Derenbecker, a few years back to a death, and you think about the times that he was with you and the times that he wasn’t, and you just wonder to…
