Ok, I agree if that's the case. How do we know he'll be healthy again this year? This could be a thing that lingers all season.
Caleb Grill's status unknown for Tuesday vs. Kansas State
- Thread starter Connor_Ferguson
- Start date
If he doesn't come back and the season goes sideways go find other things to do.
We also don’t know if he’s going to play tomorrow or not lol. My point is that you’re jumping to worse case scenario before we even know anything yet.
Him not practicing today doesn’t mean he’s out tomorrow. And if he doesn’t play tomorrow, it doesn’t mean an automatic loss nor does it mean he’s out for an extended period of time.
That's why he should just take the shot, play until the shot wears off. Rest in the off season.
Like like the UGA WR McConkey in the NC, took the shot for his knee. They knew it would wear off around the 4th quarter so tried to get use out of him until then.
I dont know about that, both the Oklahoma and TCU games we dominated but the refs decided to step in and make it competitive. The Kansas and OSU game Saturday were very winnable also if we take better shots at the end.
We could easily be 7-0 also.
I would almost fo the opposite like if the rest of the guys can keep it close, throw the closer out there to get some crucial stops and boards.
Yes, but I wouldn't count on Holmes struggling like he did against OSU or Lipsey getting into early foul trouble every game. A lot went wrong for us to lose by 2. **** happens
Holmes was bothered more on the shots but he found the floater a couple of times and it just didn't fall. There were other misses by everyone that were needed.
OSU also shot it very well too. TWO banked 3s, and shot 43% from 3, instead of their 32% average. Just too many things went the other way. Life on the road.
Repeating but it wasn't ISU's day when there was a weird pass that either got deflected or just passed poorly, that bounced 3-4 times to a waiting player that had just enough time to drill a 3.
That's my biggest criticism of him. He needs to shoot more when wide open. He had some opportunities Sat and passed them up.
I'd like to see him drive more too but I'd guess there's plans to delegate.
Maybe that changes tomorrow night.
Well if Grill is out it would be a good time for Gabe to have one of his 25 point break out games.
Interestingly, we are a more prolific and higher % 3pt shooting team than KSU - that surprised me. They don't take a ton, and their % (35.2%) is almost identical to our (35.5%). They had those two games where they scored 116 at Texas and 97 at Baylor where they went 24-49 from 3 - but just 31% in the other BigXII games. We're in big big trouble if they shoot like those 2 road games
Nowell is obviously a problem, and it will be important for Lipsey and Holmes to stay on him. He's not their leading scorer though, Florida transfer Keyontae Johnson is, and I'm assuming Gabe will draw that assignment
As usual, turning them over and making them take uncomfortable shots will be the key. Our defense excels (#1 nationally) in creating turnovers and limiting shots at the rim.
None of us on CF knew Caleb was from Kansas.
Being without a key player isn't necessarily something you can game plan for. I'm sure they will have some rotations and offensive sets in place for that contingency tomorrow.
