Silas and Jaylin are Questionable for tomorrow (edit: Silas good to play)

[gsmooth]

I am paint clouding here, but Malachi could return back to his OOC form and maybe someone from the bench surprises like Toraino Walker did in the 1990 BET final.

 

[upstater]

Outrageous. Absolutely outrageous. The lying. That’s what I can’t take.

Really? If the misinformation makes it more difficult for the other team to prepare, why would you be against that?

 

[UCFan1513]

Guys, it’s Furman, they’ll be fine. Probably just a risk / reward play to have him ready later

 

[Slick]

What’s wrong with Malachi Smith?

Be 🙄

Millender/Furphy time

Holy hell

neither have played all year

 

[Brochacho]

Hurley lost his (redacted) mind putting Silas back in that game

No one is really talking about this but absolutely insane coaching malpractice.

 

[uconngb]

Still….,unforgivable that Hurley put Silas back into that game after the initial injury. What the hell eas he thinking

Uh... Visions of University of San Diego game running through my head.

Will we? Demary just is the glue that keeps the team together. With no depth and Smith playing hurt we could lose this game for sure.

 

[uconngb]

I understand that. But you know Malachi isn’t playing 40 minutes right?? We will see one of them for a few minutes out of necessity, not choice

 

[jibsey]

Wait a minute. Smith and Millender are the point guards?

 

[uconngb]

Wait a minute. Smith and Millender are the point guards?

It appears thus

 

[UCFan1513]

If we can’t beat Furman with Malachi Smith we weren’t going anywhere anyway

 

[WhereistheDove?]

Malachi has plenty of success playing this level of team. He’s fully capable of leading this team to a big win still.

 

[aceboon]

They're probably going to have to use AK as a hub more, let him survey from up top while action is running

Please stop. Trainer says he can play, he plays

 

[sdglast]

I think the bigger concern is that the source seemed to suggest Demary would be very questionable for Sunday. Certainly one game at a time, but boy win or lose Hurley is gonna face a lot of questions after the game.

 

[auror]

Considering Furman starts a 6'5" point guard, I might consider starting Jayden Ross and benching Ball. You need Malachi to have a PG out there, and having both Smith and Ball is a bad idea considering Furman's height.

If not starting, it has to be a quick sub if necessary.

 

[upstater]

That's nice but a loss to Furman is bad.

That '08 team had Jeff Adrien, Stanley Robinson, AJ Price, Jerome Dyson, Hasheem Thabeet & Gavin Edwards.

That team minus Dyson made the final 4 the following year.

 

[Bryant]

We will use Ball, Ross, and Mullins to handle the ball when Smith is out. I doubt we see either Furphy or Millender unless we are up big in the second half

Feed Tarris early and often. They will have to double the post. POA defense is the main issue. May have to play Ross more and have Smith play off POA if their PG starts to go off.

 

[boog204]

Well, HW611 always said Ross would be a starter. Here we go?

 

[sdglast]

Feed Tarris early and often. They will have to double the post. POA defense is the main issue. May have to play Ross more and have Smith play off POA if their PG starts to go off.

With that being said, how about Karaban, Mullins, and Ball all show up tonight. UConn needs lots of offense tonight.

 

[UCFan1513]

Agree with you there, but the collective losing of minds feels like we’ve lost the plot here

 

[Excalibur]

The injury was never a turned ankle. Guys don’t get carried off the floor for a turned ankle.

Interesting how they advertised the x-rays being negative but never mentioned the MRI results.

 

[upstater]

Do I believe they can lose this game without Demary? Yes. I just remember how loaded the '08 team was. A lot of great players. And they lost in this exact same situation.
