It was estimated back in December that it's about a six month recovery.

He is out of his sling most of the time, but he is not going to be doing anything until he is cleared by his surgeon. That won't be this season.

I would like a 100 percent healthy AJB next year! Starting lineup of: Reef, EJ4, AJB, Hadaway, Clayton--yes please. And toss in Ayden Evans, Ike and Sheldon off the bench and any Jucos or transfers we get is gravy.

So, is it true that win or lose on Friday, we will play Miami in the first round of the tournament? Don't like that at all. If that' true, I'd take a page out of the NFL playbook. Since we've secured our match up, just play scrubs on Friday. Rest the starters. Maybe Wiz can play 40 minutes and get some needed reps at catching the ball and dunking.
According to a few people here we already play scrubs.
Just one.

Scrubs??

As in plural?

Of all the regular contributors on the floor this season, the consensus that I see on this board is only one of them shouldn't be playing division-one basketball.

But that doesn't fit BTC's narrative. The one where too many on here aren't real Bobcat fans like himself.

3.5 now.

I think we drop this one by 8.

3rd is locked up and we’re ass on the road. Just looking at the other games, if they fall like they should, win or lose we play them again. Even if we beat Miami and Kent beats Toledo Miami wins the tie.

This feels more like Arkansas State than a rivalry game.

Get out of here healthy. See ya next week.

So we're going with the play like ass and give 20% effort strategy.

Cool.

With apologies to BTC, it sure looks like it through the first 8 minutes.

We need new uniforms so bad. Have to be the worst in the conference.

Would love an old heritage “throwback” look. Similar to the Walter Lucket version, close to Boals / Trent years.

We're 3-15 from the field and 2-5 from the FT line.

If Miami wasn't awful we'd be down 20.

I know he’s hurt, but Elmore has totally lost his game. Hasn’t made a corner “3” since 8th grade. Really need him to contribute.

4-21 and jacking up shots at an incredible rate.

Has a power forward game in a 6-1 body (I know, he's listed at 6-3).

Half of them aren't even good shots.

If you have 6 feet of space with 20 seconds on the shot clock, it's probably because that's a shot the D is willing to give up.

Then again, we've done nothing but get blocked or turn it over when trying to drive so.

All around looking really great.

One of those… “Worst halves of the year”.

Way to back into the lane and leave the three-point shooter wide open. That’s three times we’ve done that tonight. I will never understand that concept of defense. Guard the three-point line.

WMU only down 2 to Akron.

Gonna kick ourselves when we could have drawn the Broncos if only we didn't stink up the joint in Oxford.

He hasn’t hit a 3 since returning and it’s not as though he’s shot well from beyond the arc this season. I’d give Ike more minutes tonight with Miles out.

Edit — then Ike gets cooked defensively and on a rebound.

Hand injury, apparently.

No clue on severity.
