Sounds great to me. Hope he gets in playing shape quickly and becomes part of the rotation in short order.

Great news.  Hopefully he can get some solid minutes and even more vs Ball State.

My hope is that he can force feed during non-con schedule even if he makes mistakes so as to  be ready for BEast.

So if he comes in and plays like our other freshmen saviors, who or what are we going to pray for?

This. Reminds me if that year (2007?) that everyone was hoping and praying for otule & fulce to get healthy and play.

He's a freshmen, let's allow the young man to be a freshman.  Expectations in check

At the least, he gives us another option at the point. If he contributes meaningfully, terrific.

The season is saved!!!!

But seriously, folks ... I am looking forward to seeing him, as we all are.

First, we need the help. Second, it's the whole curiosity thing. Unlike some of y'all, I've never seen him play one second in high school or anywhere else.

If we see even just one bit of promise and flash in his game on Saturday we can get even more excited.  We don't execute many "pretty" plays on offense any more.

Yep.  Not to mention that he has missed virtually all practices and every game.  Need to be realistic.

Have you no sense of reality?  A freshman thrown into games with little practice, probably not totally in game shape, and doesn't yet know the system and has never defended at a D1 level is worth a couple exciting plays, a bunch of turnovers, and countless "points against".  I do hope the young man is fit and well but zero expectations from here.

I am happy for Duane, but there is every chance that this is Junior Cadougan, circa 2010, all over again.   Temper your expectations.

I don't get all the commotion about Duane. Dawson is already better than he and Derrick combined.

Heretics!  He will lead the team in points, assists, rebounds, steals, and the stress fracture will have given him a peculiar spring to his jump that will enable him to break McIlvaine's career blocks record in one shortened season.  The Elite Eight would be a disappointment now that one of the gods is suiting up for us.

Buzz said at the preseason luncheon that he had to fill 25 minutes after Duane got hurt. He was going to play a lot of minutes for Marquette, let's hope he can get back to that level this year.

Even if he won't be ready to contribute Sat, this is great news for conference play.

We need all the offense we can get and Duane has shown in high school he is a natural playmaker. If he can be a 10 minute spark off the bench, it will make all the difference in the world.
