Seemed like a good idea to get this one rolling asap, or we'll lose track of it.

November 23rd, 2015

Kretzer - racing heart - Status unknown

Forsythe - Broken rib - Out indefinitely

Ivey - Floaters in the knee - Out ≈2 weeks

Williams - Back spasms - Day-to-day

Robotham - ACL- Out ≈4 weeks

Those ribs can be a real mother to heal. We can only hope that it's sooner rather than later. Jake's issues worry me much more. He's a great guy and I just want him to live a long and healthy life. if that includes giving up basketball, then so be it. He'll be a success in any endeavor he chooses.

In the meantime, can't we catch a break ?

I looked at the replay of the game to see when Pat got injured and the only contact I saw was with Reggie during the first half. It looked like Pat may have been playing hurt and that would explain his 0 for 6 shooting including an air ball from 5 feet. I hope he makes a speedy recovery.

Injuries early in the season are better than late in the season during conference play. Also, it gives other players an opportunity to step up. Look how well Antino played after Robotham went down. Also, Pat excelled when Tree left the program. Hopefully, this will Kwan an opportunity to shine. He played well at both Arkansas and Villanova.

I am also looking forward to seeing Utomi play as I liked his game in the brief showing during the exhibition. We need a player that is athletic, can attack the basket, and draw some fouls.

By the way Keith commented about Jake's situation, it seemed like something that the were well aware of, and may be something that has occurred several times before?

If so, it may not be anything to be too alarmed about, both for his own personal health, and for potential lost playing time. If anyone had previously deemed this to be anything dangerous, he wouldn't be out there on the floor, I would assume.
