Stewart and Silas’ Status For The Tourney

medical news is privileged information and what we hear is likely okay’d for release while other news is not.

Keep em guessing is why so until we see them play consider them injured.
 
Not sure we'll see Stewie again this season really, maybe garbage time but considering he's been marginally playable and out several weeks I don't see him getting subbed into our games - it's going to be all Ross unless he tanks. Demary is critical to our play, I wish that we'd gotten Millender some time on the floor but this season was just so tight.

Never count your chickens before they hatch! Not sure if you remember but years ago we played a huge underdog named George Mason. It didn’t go so well! One game at a time please!!

One game at a time is the only way to play the tournament, but George Mason’s regular season in ‘06 placed them about 100 teams better on the NET or similar rankings than this year’s Furman. Yes, we should have beaten Mason but they made it to the Regional Finals before beating us for a reason — they were a good team.

I’m sorry, but we have never ever played George Mason. Never. Not once. Not a single time. Ever. Like ever.

And you can trust me because I was there when we never played George Mason.

Not only was I never there also — I have no other explanation why it was a solid ten years after March of ‘06 before I could hear Living on a Prayer being played and not walk out of the room. Even at weddings.

They outmuscled us as I remember.

Millender had time just not that much

Mason beat us in DC, a home game for them.

This is kind of like the tic-tac-toe chicken. When someone loses there are the excuses like “well he plays all the time “ or “ he got to go first” but the reality is that you lost to a chicken! There are NO acceptable excuses for losing to George Mason just as there are none for losing to Furman!

And outquicked us. We couldn't guard anyone one-on-one. MW was too slow to guard their point guard (Tony Skinn, their current coach), Denham and Rashad couldn't stay with their shooter, Rudy didn't have the foot speed to handle their 6-4 wing, their long-armed PF could score over Hilton and their beefy center got what he wanted on Josh.

But fortunately that game was imaginary and never actually happened. It all started when there was this goofy Sports Illustrated April Fools Day cover with George Mason on it, sorta like the old Sidd Finch one, and, just like the Finch story, a lot of people genuinely thought it was real. Folks can be so gullible.

Anyone else wondering why we haven't heard anything on Silas' MRI?

Mad suspicious, I’m thinking we won’t see Silas on Friday and it has me a little worried. I don’t blame the team for being quiet, want the other team to need to gameplan for everything

Yah that was my thought too unfortunately

Obviously would rather Silas, but if there’s one game Mali could thrive, it’s this one. I have utmost confidence he can get it done vs Furman.

I wonder if they had the reading back by the time of the Selection Show.

Hurley had a positive update on Silas Demary Jr.’s ankle injury, which was described as a “very minor sprain,” after he had to be carried off the court and into the locker room with three and a half minutes left in Saturday’s game. Demary’s X-ray came back negative, his father reported, and he appeared to be walking normally, without a boot, as the team crossed Jim Calhoun Way to view the selection show from the football facility.

“I think Silas is in pretty good shape,” Hurley said.

Thing is no detail about the MRI aside from saying it’s “a very minor sprain”. Hearing he was walking normally is pretty relieving because I feel like the day after the injury if it was serious he’d be limping. But Hurley saying he thinks he’s in pretty good shape was the broad generalization that concerned me.

Maybe he’s being tight lipped to give this air of cover-up, so on Friday night when Silas suits up and hits warm up hard, Furman fills their diapers instantly
