Title: Morsell Doubtful
Post by: GoldenEagles03 on December 30, 2021, 04:12:47 PM
According to Twitter and MU pregame notes, Darryl Morsell is listed as doubtful for Saturdays game against Creighton.

Terrible development for this team that needs a win quite badly. Morsell previously missed the game against UConn nearly 2 weeks ago with Health and Safety Protocols due to COVID.

Any indication why he might not play?

Protesting the mask policy.

Nope. Would assume COVID related, but that is nothing more than a guess.

Teams are extremely careful in requiring specific conditioning results post-COVID. Maybe still something they are working through with him?

2 weeks is a long time though. I would have thought for sure he would be back.

Didn't care for Shaka's Xmas gift, and is planning to get hammered Friday night

I don't want to understate the danger the public is facing. Follow the rules. What annoys me is what's happening in college bb. In the past if you couldn't field? a team you forfeited the game. Up until now, it seems. If a game is cancelled and can't be rescheduled the game is counted as what? No contest?  You guys know the rules. I can't understand them. In this case I have my suspicions. I believe the rules say a team must play at least 33 games to qualify for March Madness. It could be 30. My point is: what happens if a team or two in the top 25 haven't played the required number of games? Will they be disqualified? That will keep you kids busy for awhile.

Short answer:  No.   It will work itself out.
