Cole in protocol

is the basketball protocol different than a football protocol? Basketball practically has no head contact.
 
.-.
No question Cole will be cleared to play on Saturday. He'll most likely clear step 5 by Thursday and engage in a full practice.
  1. No Activity COMPLETE PHYSICAL & COGNITIVE REST Recovery
  2. Exertion Step 1 Light aerobic exercise: walking, bike Increase heart rate
  3. Exertion Step 2 Mode, duration and intensity‐dependent exercise based upon sport: i.e. interval bike Engage anaerobic metabolism
  4. Exertion Step 3 Sport specific activity with no head impact Add Movement
  5. Exertion Step 4 Limited, controlled return to non‐contact practice and resumption of progressive resistance training Exercise, Coordination, & Cognitive L
  6. Exertion Step 5 Full sport participation in a practice Restore Athlete’s Confidence, Coaching Staff Assesses Functional Skill
  7. Return To Play NORMAL GAME PLAY
The 5 exertion steps do not require 5 days to complete, though no more than 2 steps should be performed on the same day to allow for monitoring of both acute and delayed symptoms. If the exertion activities do not produce acute symptoms, the athlete may progress to the next step. The athlete may advance to step 5 and return to full participation the day after completing step 4 of the protocol if they remain asymptomatic. The amount of time spent in each level of the progression will be dependent upon the student‐athlete’s symptoms and the presence or absence of concussion modifiers, such as previous concussions, previous prolonged post concussive syndromes, ADD/ADHD, depression

 
W/O Cole, UConn has zero chance of advancing. Please, Please, Please get healthy Cole!!!
 
IF (big if at this point) IF RJ is not good to go, I think Danny wants to/will start AJAX at the point:

AJAX
BOUK
Tyrese
Whaley
Sonogo


I think this would be an amazing lineup in terms of D and rebounding, obviously outside shooting would be a touch limited.

That is a real disaster Jackson at point. Good vision, handle suspect and can't shoot. Sorry but no.
 
Yeah not yet. Gaff would start at point.
that would be a complete disaster.

gaffney's minutes need to be extremely limited for us to have any chance in the tournament.

he doesn't run the offense in any meaningful way and has a shaky handle bringing the ball up the court. he will get eaten alive in the tournament.

So who then?

Danny has said that Jackson will be an NBA point - I know that it is future tense, but I think he is the next best option after Cole right now - and Gaff is one of my favorite players on the team but right now he is a bench player not capable of logging starter minutes. I just think Danny goes for it with that super athletic super strong line-up from the jump if Cole is actually out (which he won't be).

and yes Jackson and foul trouble will probably be a big issue if this happens. . .

His upside is huge but he can't shoot, brick city. We need someone to make shots and Gaffney has shown that.
 

nothing new on cole but includes some info on other guys in our region:

Josh Primo - Alabama​

Primo has a knee sprain, and is day-to-day. He averages 8.4 points and 3.1 rebounds for the SEC champions.

“We’ll try to get him back for the NCAA tournament at some point. It’s not something where he’s going to be out, where he requires surgery or anything like that. He should be back playing this year, whether it’s tomorrow, next weekend, Sweet 16, hopefully we get him back here soon,” said his head coach Nate Oats on Saturday.

Isaiah Livers - Michigan​

Livers is the star forward for the Wolverines, but is out indefinitely with a stress fracture in his foot. His status for the balance of the tournament is questionable, but it’s not looking good for the first weekend.

R.J. Cole - UConn

Cole hit his head on the floor with under five minutes left against Creighton in the Big East semifinals and was bleeding on the court. He suffered a mild concussion and is in the protocol. His coach Danny Hurley said since their first game is on Saturday, Cole has a better chance of returning than if it was on Friday.

As the starting point guard, Cole averages 12.3 points and 4.4 assists per game.

seems like just stating the obvious

I wore my blue tinted glasses when I filled out my bracket, therefore we are going to win the whole thing. This just makes it easier.
i only filled out 2 brackets this year. in one we make the Final 4 and in the other we lose to Bama....cause it's going to be one or the other. if we beat bama i think we also beat texas and FSU/St B/LSU (since i think UM will lose to one of those 3)
