I was thinking this too. Wouldn’t be terrible timing.after the St. John’s game would be a perfect time for a covid break
Not what I was referring to at all. Was more talking about surgery versus rehabI think you're way over analyzing things. Most likely they needed to wait a few days for swelling to go down to make a full prognosis, I doubt they're talking about him staying/leaving at this point.
Good breakdown but 2-4 weeks. Yer shooting on the longer side. Right in the middle wud be three weeks. He comes back for seton hall.
So if he misses until Feb 16th at Providence (4 weeks plus a couple days), we'd have:
Home St Johns - Likely win
Home Xavier - Tossup, lean win.
At Creighton - Likely loss.
Home Butler - Likely win
At St. John's - Tossup, lean win.
At Xavier - Likely loss.
2-2 plus probably 1 of 2 tossups. 3-3 very likely, 4-2 more likely than 2-4. Would definitely keep our tournament hopes alive.
I am certainly no medical expert, but this makes a lot of sense to me, along with the 2-4 week timeframe. Reason I think this is #1, we have an excellent medical trainer on our sidelines, and he evaluated Bouk and allowed him to go back in the game. I highly highly highly doubt that he would have allowed Bouk to go back in if there was any sort of break, or dislocation to the elbow, which seems to be what the longer recovery times would be for those types of hyperextension injuries that require surgery.My guess based on recovery timeline would be left elbow arthroscopy and loose body removal.
If I’m part of the Horde, I’m pi***d. They were given no indication of any issues, nevermind SURGERY during Monday’s post game. Now I see out of nowhere a National writer has this scoop about Bouknight and surgery and he says Hurley told him?! Where’s the transparency to the local writers who cover this team as their job??Hurley was literally on Goodman’s podcast today saying Bouknight could only miss a couple of games. I’m sorry but this is the exact same BS the Yankees medical staff says. “Oh yeah Judge will only be out a couple weeks” turns into “his entire body is broken and he is out for 3 months” real fast. It’s ridiculous
