Any guesses on when we learn anything here?

Zero media to ask questions.

A nation waits.

A nation waits there as well.

No coach in America has it easier than Boals when it comes to not having to answer questions about his program.

As someone with two tickets to Friday's game, one thing worse than going in knowing that Kelly (and Elliott) are not available is going in NOT knowing whether they are available. With Kelly, I still don't think we win, but I at least go in believing we can give it our best shot because we are at *full strength. If we play at the same level as the best we've played this year (Bonaventure, either Buffalo game, Marshall) and Miami plays at the same level as the worst they've played (overtime at UNC-Asheville), we blow them away.

*I only remember one Elijah Elliott play this year (blocking a dunk at CMU). With or without him, we are kinda at full strength.

This isn't a media issue. Coaches generally don't share injury details even when asked.

I do wish, however, that a media member would ask him about the multiple player/coach behavior issues during postgame handshakes. Somebody needs to be called out and punished.

Did you see any of the Auburn game on TV last night?

Bruce Pearl's kid is now the coach and acts like a real prick.

I get that. But there isn’t even anyone to ask the simple question…”Coach…will JJ Kelly be available for Miami?” It’s up to Boals to decide how he wants to answer that question. But he never even has to worry about getting the question.

Can you imagine Bill Self not getting one question about Darryn Peterson and his availability every game? And I’m not comparing these situations, but you know what I mean.

Boals never has to address anything about the program in the media…ever.

And yet the football coach, whoever it is, is regularly asked about injury status on Mondays and the question is often answered.

*bump

So I guess some news tonight on the world famous Jeff Boals radio show?

Or just crickets concerning JJ?

Was there a show tonight? I received an alert the show was last night from the Varsity App (not that the app is reliable).

Based on some stuff on Instagram, it looks like Kelly has been practicing
