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

[Excalibur]

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

Plenty of people have talked about it, and we have no idea if it had any impact, But there was no point in playing him.

 

[boog204]

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

When did the BY ever understand the plot? Someone legit said we should decline an NCAA tourney invite the other day.

 

[Alum86]

No Silas. Yikes. Furphy ready?

 

[ucp990411]

Millender/Furphy time

Holy hell

If Milender or Furphy play we are either in big trouble or way ahead

 

[caw]

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

They need to hit shots on kick outs.

It is going to be hard to run the offense at time tonight without Silas. I like Smith but he isn't as adept at it as Demary, he's a better drive and kick player though. Not sure what Hurley does when Smith is out (fouls or just rest). He has let Ross/Ball/etc bring the ball up in the past but the offense never runs well. Survive and advance.

 

[imno1]

Our guys will step up. We are not losing tonight

 

[CardiacAndre7]

What even is Jaylin’s injury?

 

[bendm]

Yes Furphy is his logical replacement not the other PG that’s in the rotation lol

 

[djct1999]

Start Ross, have Braylon bring the ball up.

 

[Excalibur]

What even is Jaylin’s injury?

Now that’s a topic nobody wants to talk about . . .

 

[Horatio]

Amazing how there’s still push back and questioning about Millender, Etc. playing. Lol. At what point do people think we should use those other guys?!?!?

 

[mauconnfan]

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

Well my “source” was right thus far. Furman is good enough to give us a problem with Silas so this isn’t good. Imagine not having him fit UCLA or UCF as well, because the source said that Sunday not looking good as well.

 

[imno1]

611 will get his wish. I believe Solo will see some minutes running the point

This will be the definition of surviving and advancing.

This is certainly the concern. UCLA just beat MSU and is looking good tonight.

Truth hurts. I was hoping your source was full of it, but sadly he or she was accurate.

Can we just have some good news for once.

 

[ArizonaHsky]

Now that’s a topic nobody wants to talk about . . .

Why does it seem UConn keeps players out as long as possible. Im sorry tape it up or whatever and get out there and play.

 

[HooperScooper]

What even is Jaylin’s injury?

Someone said bone chips in his knee. Which means he had them removed. No idea what the normal timetable to return from that is.

 

[bendm]

Yeah Tape it up, put a cast on it, or just amputate it or whatever and get the heck out there and play!!!!!!! Amiright????

 

[UCTitleTown]

Are we similar to SMU? What would our seed have been if the committee knew SD and JS weren't playing?

 

[FlockOfLambs]

May have to make the 20 minute drive to NY state line so I can get Furman +21.5

 

[Scoe]

If Silas says he's good let him play it's the trainers job to get him to play, just like it's a mechanics job to get a car to be able to drive on the road as long as it's drivable so if Silas says he's good to go he should be able to play. Well ya better win tonight I'll tell ya that.

 

[aboogieee]

It's "Point Forward Jayden Ross" time.

 

[KingAG]

UCLA looks okay. Like the 7 seed they are.
