thank god.

**CyFan987** · 01-20-2010, 01:15 PM

probably the right choice, not fair to the rest of the team and he does seem like a changed person

**mac4cy** · 01-20-2010, 01:15 PM

IMO this is the right move. We are down to the bare bones and if Coach Mac thinks Colvin has earned the chance to redeem himself then we have to trust him.

**trevn** · 01-20-2010, 01:15 PM

I agree with the decision. Suit him up, use him if you need him.

**Bobber** · 01-20-2010, 01:16 PM

Nice comment by Mac on the red shirt situation.

**gocubs2118** · 01-20-2010, 01:16 PM

As long as he is not used until he is absolutely needed, then I'm OK with this.

**mtowncyclone** · 01-20-2010, 01:16 PM

sweet, i hope we use him. i germans.

**chuckd4735** · 01-20-2010, 01:16 PM

I disagree with the decision but won't bash him for doing it. Hopefully they are just using him on an "emergency only" role.

**CycloneBBallMan** · 01-20-2010, 01:17 PM

YES!!

**jtdoyle1** · 01-20-2010, 01:17 PM

I wish McD would have not put a timeline on this suspension like he did. It would have made this decision a lot easier.

We'll see how much Colvin will actually play. I suspect he is just dressing for emergency purposes and Mac will only put him in if absolutely needed.

I would assume this is the case, for if someone gets injured so we're not ******

I hope he would only play tonight in case of an injury, major foul trouble, etc. I think we play with 7 tonight and again against KU. If the team members are ok with bringing him back for the OU game (shortening his suspension by 5 days) I would then be ok with it.
