Tyler Olander has a right heel contusion, is day-to-day and questionable for ND game. #UConn

Time for AO to step up and play like we all know he's capable of. RS also since he should get more time than he's been getting lately if TO doesn't play.

With the obvious qualification that nobody ever likes to see anybody hurt, the 4 spot is the one position where we can withstand an injury and it would be great for Roscoe/AO to break out a little bit on Saturday if TO can't play.

really, the only spot we can't sustain an injury at this moment is the Jeremy Lamb spot... we could do without any of the bigs or wings besides Jeremy for a game and could even go without boat or napier more readily than we could play w/o Jeremy...

but, perhaps as some have noted, this will allow roscoe and AO to flourish a little

Bradley?

I guess so. But TO was very effective on Monday and does things the others can't do. Hope he doesn't miss too much time.

agreed- if they play zone and Tyler doesn't play, that will hurt..... tyler is by far the best big guy against a zone because he can patrol the middle and pass or shoot from that spot

Hope he's o.k., but this may turn out to be a good thing if AO and 'Scoe both relax a little and play not worrying about riding the pine if they make a mistake.

So what you are saying is you feel JC's coaching is to blame for their sub-par performance to date?

Yes, that's what I wrote.
