This is good news.

 

[meyers7]

Me likey.

 

[LesMis89]

Yes!

 

[VAMike23]

And no PONs for Bria upon her return! She has a free pass for at least the Paradise Jam games, to work out the rust.

We'll wait until next week to expect perfection ....

Wait......I heard she wasn't playing until December. Or was that January.

Oh yeah....she was going to redshirt.

Yea like a QB. Redshirt, so no one touches her.

And not come back for a 5th year

I resemble that :-/

This is impossible. There is no way she can play without surgery. She has a torn ligament and all the medical experts here in the yard were emphatic in saying that it would require surgery. Its a Miracle I say a Miracle.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Good news. Take it carefully, Bria!

 

[UConnChapette]

While I am delighted to hear this, I hope Geno is judicious with her minutes. Bria needs to also do her part and tell the trainers and coaches if she suffers any flair ups.

 

[connboy77]

I'm happy for Bria, but hope that she is gradually worked back into the rotation. My guess is that she won't start and will be given limited minutes until she is at full strength, at least I hope so.

 

[TimeWillTell]

Great news! Let's hope there are no future setbacks and that Bria can ease into her normal minutes per game over time. I'm positive she's excited to play as soon as possible, but there's no need to push her court time this early in the season.

 

[doggydaddy]

It's always so great to see all the boneyard coaches remind Geno not to play her too much.

My guess was that he would play her 30 minutes to make sure she can handle it. I could be wrong.

Well, you know Geno is pretty new to this coaching thing, and hasn't had much experience dealing with players coming back from injury.

Boy, if you guys are snarkey over THIS, it's going to be quite the board this season.

Glad to see her back. How does that impact our margins of victory? I mean we blew out Tex A/M by 30-something without the AA guard. Hard to imagine putting even more hurt on other team, but I guess I'm a tad on the sadistic side... so me likey!

 

[alexrgct]

I think that, when she plays, she'll play pretty close to the allotment of minutes she's going to see this season. I don't think she's going to play at all until she's really ready to go full throttle.

 

[Icebear]

I'm not as worried about the minutes she plays or her present fitness as any long term vulnerability to retweaking it.

Doesn't even look like there's room in between the 'y' and 'd'.
