fabulous.
Oh, good Lord. Time to perform an exorcism on this team.
Yikes, I really don't want to read this board anymore!
Hopefully Devante is in the shape of his life and Buzz teaches Crowder how to play defense, ala Lazar in his Sr. season.

So will this be davante's first start then?
Bad things happen in 3's... hopefully we're done with this crap.

Trite, but true, better to take the hits now than toward the end of the regular season.
I blame Enlund for not being on Twitter.
Time to put Crean's tackling dummy away!!!!
any kind of foul problems and we are screwed. As it is, LSU should wear us down simply because we will only dress nine players.

Let's not be over dramatic. Wilson will be fine, its a sprained ankle. I think we'll be okay for the weekend. Big game for Jamail tomorrow now.

We're dressing 9 assuming Jamil is gonna be ok by then. I agree though, we still have A LOT of scoring power on this team. Jamail stepping up would be more than welcome, although I'm worried we are running low on bigger bodies quick.

If it is in print, he is out. I am going to confession.

and in years past we only played 7 maybe 8 players during many BE games we will be fine

Talked to Buzz, Junior is jumping center.
This is also why I hate banking scholarships. 8 players tomorrow, could be 10 if we didn't self-impose a two scholarship penalty for no reason this year (or one if you include JT getting one).
Should we just forfeit tomorrow night's game?
No., I say we should play. The concern will come against LSU, which has a 7-2, a 6-11, three 6-9's and a 6-8. Even if Jamil is healthy, that's a huge frontcourt. Juan and Chris would certainly have helped.
Good lord, even with otule, Wilson and Anderson healthy, how would the 7th rated team (by Kenpom) even think of competing with the 120th ranked team.
i, for one, am excited to watch Marquette vs. GB in yet another installment of "MU: What might've been..." You all know what I'm talkin' about...
Mello. You watch the Packers? "Next man in." Time for your best college performance. Right now son.
Not a lot of options at the 4 and 5. This is getting interesting. Get well MU!

No, explain to me please as I'm kinda slow.
Jeez, I'm terrified now every time I type in MUScoop. Hopefully all our guys get healthy soon.

Granted our freshmen are having a big impact this year, but I would rather go 8 than add a freshmen who we didn't feel was a worth a scholarship. If we had an extra average freshmen, would he even play if we had 8 players?

Exactly. And it ties you up in future years unless you want to deal with messy transfers.
This isn't a bad time for this to occur. Jamil will be back next week at the latest. Juan, as a best case scenario, will be back for the early BE season.

Been there, typed that. Hopefully you didn't call any ex-girlfriends around then.

Or current girlfriends, girls you want to be girlfriends, friends of girlfriends ...
Anybody see a 7'0" non-student-athlete walking around campus who can walk-on?

My original point was about getting in foul trouble, which as we all know happens to Jae frequently. It's a road game in a hostile environment against a very tall team that COULD wear us down.
Lock of the week UWGB will cover 20 points!!! I loaded up big, I fully expect MU to win, but not by 20 anymore.

"Hostile" might be a bit of a stretch.
Hah .. I didn't read this thread last night, I figured it was just talking about Jaun and I didn't want to read it.
Well, crap.

This!
