Shaka's Response

[Shooter McGavin]

What's a post op indication? Do you mean contraindication? What were his contraindications, and how did he "stretch" them? (I've never heard the term stretch in this context before.)

Ha!  Maybe post op complications?

I don't have time to read this whole crap thread.

You said this.  you said that....Blah....Blah....Blah....

I can't believe you guys can type so much with only "one hand" free in your basements....

Here are the facts.

Tre was a miss......Sean is close to being a miss....We have a young team with little experience..... Our coaching is coaching the same old way with a team that needs different strategies.  We are a 6 win team in the Big East.  Relationships are not going to "float" for long.  Look how far both Seton Hall and Providence have come in one year with the coaching staff adapting.....Time for Shaka to adapt and change some things up.  The basketball team lives like they are top 10 program in amenities and et al.  Being a sub 100 team with a top 15 team investment wise is going to have a very short shelf life.

Happy T-Day.

Shaka gets paid a lot.  Figure it out.  Time to adapt... Or otherwise.....Become Wojo....

Shaka should not kid himself.....MU may be kindler and gentler now......But alumni from the 70's and 80's are "Warriors" and align more with the Al McGuire/Rick Majerus/Kevin O'Neil mode.   We are the silent majority that "has an edge"....This is not the Jesuit school where "rich go to play".....

Happy T-Day.

And a Happy T-Day to you too Burger.

Edit: Hey, did you notice that Clark had a nice 8 minutes in the CMU game?

Curious to hear more about how far Providence has come after 6 games and a 4-2 record.

The basketball team lives like they are top 10 program in amenities and et al.

In what ways? You really think Humphrey Hall is a top 10 accommodation? The Al is nice, but there's a reason they were fundraising for a new practice facility before they started being able to pay players. Almost every high major charters flights. What makes them "live like they are top 10 program in amenities and et al?"

post op indication = after surgery rehab guideline

out of curiosity - what is your typical 0-2 week protocol for a BTB ACL reconstruction on a high level athlete? does it include jumping?

In almost 20 years of doing this, I've never heard that term used before.

Anyway, the second part. A lot of questions. Why would you use any other graft on a high level athlete? Is this incident the cause of why he was on crutches forever and his knee was locked in extension?

Rule 1,2 and 3 of medicine - never stop learning.

I'll repeat since you didn't answer my question and it will help clarify your initial query "He re- tore it playing 2k and had another surgery?" - what is your typical 0-2 week protocol for a BTB ACL reconstruction on a high level athlete? does it include jumping?

To answer the question you presented from my question - some surgeons, not me, are more comfortable harvesting the gracilis and offers less post op anterior knee pain. Some consider the graft to be stiffer as well which in a vacuum I agree with however modern fixation methods allow the same or even greater stiffness with bone plugs and the patellar tendon. Different ways to skin a cat.

It would seem that 1 subpar year every 5 or 6 is tolerable if the next upswing is higher than the prior upswing.  Progress is rarily if ever uniform.  I would agree that Shaka needs to adapt but not just to the portal but to the players he has.  He needs to coach the team he has and not the team he wants.  James,Hamilton, Stevens and Parham are good players.  The futur of MU seems pretty bright to me is Shaka figures it out.

Very interesting sentence. It sounds so simple and direct, but I don't think it is. Please explain what the "team he has" is and why he should not turn them into "the team he wants." I'm not trying to give you a hard time. It's an honest question.
