Can someone just rewind to see if Ward got hit in the jewels and report back?

I have watched in slow motion and I cannot tell what happened, but he grabbed his lower leg.

Any update on game time for Saturday?

Won't know until all games are finished tonight. Likely later in the day because there are not as many time slots available early.

Any update on game time for Saturday?

I don’t think they announce until the end of the night, but I could be wrong

I think Lipsey tweaked the shoulder that's bothered him for much of the season. Ward seemed fine to me. And seriously, some need to chill the f out.

I will not chill the F out when two of our most needed players go down in the final minutes when we're up by 20+ pts. If that doesn't worry you... so be it. It has me worried.

I don't think Lipsey's shoulder and Ward's foot were 100% coming in to this game tonight. Maybe 90-95%? So what if they are now at 70-75%? Would that have you even a little concerned about our chances of advancing as far as we're capable of?

Milan was an assassin tonight. (And honestly has been since the start of the Big12 tourney),
Really confident, and really hunting his shots. Great game!

Our ceiling is so much higher when he's hitting shots like that.

Robert Jones has been up and down lately. Tonight wasn't his night. Hope he's ready to have a few up nights in a row.

Won't know that until all the games are over tonight.

We doubled up our scoring output from last years tourney game tonight.

it really bothered him the last couple of weeks of the regular season, he did not look like himself on offense at all. You could tell it was better, the warm up drills he was doing with the basketball before the game would be hard to do with any kind of shoulder injury. Does anyone know if it is the shoulder on his shooting arm?

That guy on our team that copies Dirk is nice

Milan

Have to give props to the Jackrabbits. Well coached and handled our pressure better than I thought they would. Some nice players too. No idea how some of those gingers got away from Fran

I’m not that into b-ball but I’m starting to love TJ more all the time! May have to start giving some dollars to the basketball program. This is fun stuff to watch!

Haha almost met it at half.

11:30pm, see you then, enjoy your day Saturday doing other activities!

A first round win, everybody’s healthy! Watching the rest of today and tomorrow’s tournament games knowing my team is still in it? Priceless.

Didn't need his points tonight. BRE is due for breakout game

It IS the NCAA tournament, after all. So I'll give TJ the benefit of the doubt on who he plays and when. Chill.
