Duane out with stress fracture

[Hards Alumni]

Its amazing what two words can do to a thread.

I think your way underrating him. Derrick wilson has taken like 12 shots in his MU career.  Duane shot 55% from three in HS.  Duane is far and away a better player than derrick wilson, and he would get more minutes than derrick from day one (may not start with Buzz's crazy habits in that regard).

high school line is also closer than the college line.

Tweet from MU this morning showed the team practicing at the BC. I think that's Wilson on the left, sans boot...

Indeed!--that a great sight.

Forgive me if I am wrong, but I don't think you wear a boot for a stress fracture.

My wife did for a stress fracture in her foot back in 2009.

You're forgiven.

Looks like Devante is still trying to wake up!

Was Duane's in his foot?  I thought it was his lower leg.

Maybe I should just shut up.

In the past Buzz/MU has often been "worst case scenario" in their estimates of how much time an injured player will miss. Hope that's the case here and Duane is back sooner than expected.

Just looked up Wes' injury in his freshman season.  Injury diagnosed sometime between Dec. 29 and January 3, and returned February 1.  So about 4 1/2 weeks.  If Duane has a similar recovery, he would be back sometime around the Arizona State game or the Chicos Classic.

The leg was mentioned and there was some talk about his hip. Was there ever any clarification on this? Maybe his hip was sore, because he was favoring his leg.

Is that Duane or Todd? Its kind of hard to tell. Duane had crutches for a week or so and now he has nothing. I talked to him in class and he said the leg is feeling much better than just 2 weeks ago.

That's Duane.

Not likely with 12,000 posts

Perhaps Duane can play QB for the Pack this weekend.

Perhaps Duane can play QB for the Pack this weekend.   

And Sandy Cohen can play receiver.

Even if his participation in practice is somewhat limited right now, reps at this juncture means that 8-12 weeks was a very conservative estimate and that he'll be more ready to play when he does get a shot because he won't have missed dozens of practice opportunities in Kasten.

Be great if he dresses Friday, even if only to cheer and restrain overly enthusiastic teammates on the bench.

How dare you upset the way of thinking around here...There are two types of people in the world--those with a boot and those without a boot.

At the Blue and Gold luncheon today, Buzz said Duane will be out for quite a while though he did say Duane was visiting the Dr. today for an evaluation update ( along with Todd and Steve who should get final clearance for actual competition following their surgeries ).

You sure that's not John Dawson.  That's a real short Davante if it is him.  Anderson's got a good 4 inches on him.

[Steve Buscemi]

Anderson's got a good 4 inches on him.

Yeah, I heard that too.

[94Warrior]

Anybody who thinks that's Devante needs their eyes checked.  That potbelly that you think you are looking at is not a potbelly.  It is part of the railing from the Bradley Center seats behind John Dawson. 

Which poses another question, why are they practicing in the BC and not the Al?
