We need Akok back immediately.

He would’ve allowed us to rest Whaley and play a better small ball line up. Akok can play the 5 against these types of teams that have active bigs. His shot blocking is really missed as we’d be able to put more pressure on the the three point shooters.

Hopefully UCONN doesn’t postpone anymore games

No we don't need Akok back immediately. It would be nice of course, but he needs to heal appropriately. The team is solid. Lots of good things going on. An early season loss to a good team doesn't warrant emergency at all.

Everyone should remember that Akok is just coming back from a major injury. Even if he's medically cleared to play you're expecting too much if you think he's going to come back right where he left off last season.

In the offseason we talked about questioning whether Polley and Akok would come back as they were last year. Well we've seen Polley so far. Hopefully Akok is more ready but I don't know how you can expect that.
