Smh so mad I pulled my groin during warm ups and couldn't play #out for a while

I saw a lot of people wondering about him during pregame and here is the answer.

I think the extra scholarship will come from Railey or booker.

I pulled my groin this morning too. And once last night. I may let my wife pull my groin tonight; twice if I recover fast enough.

Just please stop with this. I get so sick of hearing people speculate about him and others transferring. It's almost like they're rooting for him to leave. Gets old.

No kidding. The kid has tons of up side. Let him develop and learn

Thanks for posting this. I saw him limping around during timeouts and was wondering what was up.

correct. probably railey though. we NEED height in the class of '13. a couple bigs along with Samuel, sheppard, Thomas, ennis would be perfect.

Couldn't help but think this was going to tie in to the Kobe thread.Guess not.

Im pretty sure Booker could transfer still. He graduates next semester, so he could transfer and not sit as long as he is doing grad studies in something not offered at ISU. (I believe anyways). I hope he doesnt transfer though, he is pretty good on defense and I think his offense will get better as the year progresses.

Man I am sorry to hear Tevon got injured. It has been frustrating waiting to see him play. We heard about his quicks and the Clones really need that at point. He needs more than 3.3 minutes a game to learn and grow in. Fred, put him in and teach him up.

Honestly, its a shame our first team can't even get a big enough lead against these POS teams to give our bench players more PT at the end of games. I can count on 1 hand how many times this year we have had leads large enough to put in the bench players to get them some gametime experience. It should have happened in every game this year, minus Michigan and UNI in my opinion.

This is getting real old too. Coach should do this. Coach should do that. Tell you what, you get the invite to coach D1 and then we'll listen to you and others. Do I agree with everything FH does? No. Does he agree with everything I say? No. Leave it at that. I agree it is frustrating to watch this team, but I can only imagine how frustrating it is for FH.

Oh, and by the way, when the team is struggling to put a full game together, to get everyone on the same page, to figure out who will be his long-term PG, etc, etc, and all the while the coach is trying to get ready for a tough B12 schedule, the last thing he needs to do is worry about playing time for his bench. As the season moves on, he will get past his top 10 players and get them playing experience.

Maybe Lipscomb will give them some playing time. This game we were outhustled.

He didn't even say CFh was doing anything wrong. He just said it sucks that we haven't gotten the bench the playing time we should have with our schedule which is completely true because we seem like we want to give everyone a shot in the last 8 minutes.

Where did I mention this was CFH fault?
I simply stated it sucks that we can't get big enough leads and hold them until the end of the game to give the bench players PT.

Usually these non-conference games are great times to get everybody PT because we should be blowing them out. It's tough to get them in the game when it's still a 4 point game with 4 minutes to play.

We were ahead of EIU by 19 at half and he didn't see the floor. We beat Rice 90-63 and he played 3 minutes. Its starting to remind me of Chris Colvin.:sad:
