zipdiehard Posted February 8, 2013 Report Posted February 8, 2013 Does anyone know if Chauncey is practiciing? During the CMU game he ackwardly slipped out of bounds and came up limping. During the subsequent time out he appeared to be in pain. He didn't go back in, and last I saw he was with the trainer in the corner by the end of the bench. Quote

He also only played 2 min. against OU, and appeared to be very frustrated, and walked into the corner as well. Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted February 8, 2013 Report Posted February 8, 2013 Winning, and cupcakes, can mask a lot of problems. We need Chauncey for the stretch run. For NDSU, K.e.n.t. and OU. And obviously the tourney. I hope he is healthy. If he's simply in the doghouse, that's a problem. Hey George - this is definitely something you can follow up on. Quote
plowerman78 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Posted February 8, 2013 he was practicing when channel 5 did there bit on the Zips yesterday on the news, so i anticipate him playing Quote
skip-zip Posted February 8, 2013 Report Posted February 8, 2013 He's practicing. But, that doesn't necessarily answer any questions. If he's in the doghouse, he'd still be practicing. And if he's trying to work through an injury since he's down to only the last handful of games in his career, he'd be practicing too. Quote
Quickzips Posted February 9, 2013 Report Posted February 9, 2013 Frankly, if he is still having issues from the meniscus injury I wouldn't hesitate to shut him down for a couple of weeks. This team is deep enough to survive without him against the likes of Miami and EMU. We will need him more later (Bracketbuster, OU, Can't, Tournament). Is playing him 2 minutes per night on a bum knee really worth it? Quote
Dave in Green Posted February 9, 2013 Report Posted February 9, 2013 I would think that any PT any Zips player gets after a medical procedure would be 100% based on physician recommendations to the coaching staff. Quote

You are right Dave...As much as Chauncey wants to play the medical staff has the final say. Coach won't play him at this point unless he is needed. This has been really hard for Chauncey since this is his final college year. Quote

Coach won't play him at this point unless he is needed. This has been really hard for Chauncey since this is his final college year. It looked pretty clear to me that he was not running well. I know he wants to contribute, but if he is hurt he is hurt, can't do much about it. Quote
Blue & Gold Posted February 10, 2013 Report Posted February 10, 2013 Better to let Chauncey heal fully. We'll really need him come the MACC and if we hope to win any games in the NCAA tourney. When healthy he's still our best all-around/most-versatile player. Keep your head up, Chauncey! We need you! Quote
bigzipguy Posted February 10, 2013 Report Posted February 10, 2013 Sit him down for a least 1 week. HEAL UP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
