Owens out Monday

[MUfan12]

@BenSteeleMJS Marquette coach Shaka Smart says freshman Damarius Owens will likely miss #mubb opener and maybe more games with a toe injury suffered in scrimmage vs. Oklahoma.

Owens also dealt with groin injury in the preseason.

Not an ideal start to the season injury wise. Let's hope we stay healthy this year.

[GoldenEagles03]

Ouch.

This will hurt no doubt. He is going to be very good.

[muwarrior69]

I was looking forward to see him play.

[We R Final Four]

Ouch.

This will hurt no doubt. He is going to be very good.

This will hurt us on Monday? No doubt about it?
I sure hope we are not in such a contested game that DO's services would have been necessary.

Are you kidding!?!?  I'm ALREADY hurting from it, probably unbearable pain on Monday.

One of duane's starters down already. May need to go with the old, washed up guys.

[The Sultan]

We are doomed.

What hurts is that I was  looking forward to seeing Owens play because he was very impressive in the open practice, and I hope that missing some early games won't hinder his development as the tougher games come up.

I had Owens pegged as a likely part of an 8 man rotation when the conference season comes around.

Great.

Another scrimmage that dropped us at least 2 seed lines

Only been reported that he's missing one game.

Gonna be more, my guy

He already missed some practice time and the open scrimmage with the groin injury. He presumably also missed at least some of the Oklahoma scrimmage.

The report now says he will likely miss one game and maybe more.

With the missed time and possible nagging injuries Owens might not be as ready to play as he would have been otherwise.

Not Monday. Just in general. He's a big piece to this team on both sides of the ball. He will be one step behind the game action whenever he is ready. Hopefully they can get him up to speed before playing games that could be close.

Ughhhhhhh.  Hopefully this is ephemeral. 

[PointWarrior]

Ouch.

This will hurt no doubt. He is going to be very good.

Good thing we are not playing Radford.

[mileskishnish72]

This is bad, I'm pissed!

[CTWarrior]

Hope it's not too serious.  Seems minor, but toe injuries stink. You feel it on every step and people don't bounce back from them as fast as you'd think.

Opportunity beckons for Parham, Hamilton, Amadou, Lowery.

You optimists are so annoying! 

Nice take, Tower.
