Cupps was a highly recruited high school player in Indiana, but he was a washout in his 2 seasons at Indiana. He was a starter most of his freshman year, but only averaged 2.6 ppg. Then he was limited by a knee injury most of his sophomore year, and in the 4 games he played he was scoreless.
He transferred a year ago and played at Ohio State this past season, but even when healthy, he proved he didn't belong at the Big Ten level. He only managed about 12 minutes per game off the bench and averaged just 1.7 ppg and shot just 26% from three.
He's not quick enough to play point guard effectively and not very big (listed at 6'2"), not very mobile, and not a high percentage shooter to be an effective shooting guard, at least at the Big Ten level. He was also a defensive liability at Indiana and Ohio State. He's better suited for the MVC, but I'm not sure how much he'll help UIC. I actually think UIC had better guards last year.
Btw, Cupps got a big NIL deal at Indiana, which left the fans a bit unhappy when he didn't perform well, then left after he was recovered from the knee cartilage injury. He even started his own clothing line while at Indiana and the university promoted it and sold it in the NIL web store.

It never sold well in Bloomington. I wonder if it will sell in Chicago?
