Bouk out indefinitely

I thought Hurley was quoted to say not a large amount of time to the media? Any reason why he would say that if surgery was on the table? Seems like this isn't the first time Hurley has given out flat out wrong information to reporters.

Important to remember that not all surgeries are the same in severity and require differing recovery periods. Unclear if this was a quick in/out procedure, what they did, what the initial recovery from procedure period looks like, etc. Speculating on timeframes without this information is meaningless.

Would they even do that on what seems to be an unscheduled surgery?

Some "surgery" can happen very quickly. You go in for a check up. They find something and move directly to a procedure. That seems like what happened. He was scheduled to go in on Tuesday. They found something that needed to be fixed. They scheduled him to go in today.

The question remains. Was it arthroscopic or did they have to cut him open? Makes a big difference.
 
I wouldn't blame Bouk for a second if he decided to opt out of the rest of the season. I hope he doesn't, but he's already a lock 1st rounder and I would hate to see him get hurt again trying to come back before he's 100%.

Obviously they still tried to use him by saying he was a 'Game time' decision for Butler and Depaul, just to try to get those teams to waste some time scheming to stop him. Bouknight and Jackson out extended this year, Polley and Akok last year, Gilbert, Diarra, Yakwe, ... I remember years when players on the roster actually played whole seasons, but those memories are starting to fade. It's so disappointing to never have a whole team! These kids have worked too hard to get screwed like this
 
Wow. Nobody expected this. I think Hurley already knew but is hopefull that Bouk will be back without missing more than a few more weeks.

2-4 weeks per Goodman tweet

So back by end of February most likely. Misses 8-12 games (including 2 already missed). Plays last 5 games, any makeup games, and both tournaments. This can work. That's enough time to play back into game shape and reintegrate into the offense. If we play .500 ball in Big East until then, we should get credit by the committee.

I think we'll be alright.

Hope he's back at 100% by @Villanova game on Feb 20th (and home Provy on 16th).

They are more injured than any football team I've ever seen. We haven't had anything close to a healthy team since the national championship in 2014.

after the St. John’s game would be a perfect time for a covid break

I was thinking this too. Wouldn’t be terrible timing.

Though I’m not that worried. I think we can go 2-1 during this stretch since we’ve built up a culture for winning now.

I really would’ve liked to stick it to Creighton in Omaha but if we can go the rest of January 4-1 and get him back for February I’d be ecstatic

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

I 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.

Not what I was referring to at all. Was more talking about surgery versus rehab

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.
 
Unbelievable. We go 3-2 over that stretch I’ll take it. Still gotta figure more big East teams will have to postpone games due to covid which cud push back big East tourney some Now I’m actually hoping for games to get postponed. Who wudda thought we d be saying that. Time for Cole to step up
