Jackson breaks pinky finger in practice

OSU and Florida both have 2 conference games each week in Jan and Feb. Even if we wanted an OOC game after the New Year, other teams probably won’t be bending over backwards to jam us in their already full conference slate. Unless it was dictated by the conference (like getting the Big East and Big 12 to agree to do the annual match-up series in mid Jan instead of early Dec). I don’t disagree that a late season OOC game would be preferable, but it’s just not logistical with the current way conferences schedule games.

Necessity is the mother of invention. Make it happen even if a 20 year old has to play 3 games in a week. What did Kemba do in NYC?

A couple positives: we can put 4 shooting threats around Sanogo and we can get a few guys some more experience.

We know what we will get from AJ so like Borges said, may be a blessing in disguise to get the other players some PT.

I'm surprised it took to the 4th page before this comment was made. It was my first thought when I heard the news and saves me from posting it. I agree, a blessing in disguise.

“He’s a tone-setter. He’s going to be one of the elite defenders in the country. He’s a guy that’s going to average four or five assists a game. We put this roster together with him in mind as a key facilitator, not necessarily as a point guard for our team but somebody that’s going to create a lot of scoring.

“We’re hoping he can be back on time for PK85, maybe even have a chance if everything were to go great to get in even a game or two potentially before that.”

Not necessarily as a point guard? Omg then it will be Sanogo or Clingan huh.

Probably both, we’ve been successful using two point guards before.
