EJ out tonight

[RoyKent]

has a back issue and won’t play

 

[Cat_Incognito]

Thought he was noticeably hobbling off the court last night. Hope it doesn't linger.

 

[BassProCat]

Great

 

[Cindog28]

I hate to say that I'm glad that it is his back, but I'm glad it wasn't a leg.

I noticed last night he seems to have Vanderbilt stick legs.

Hope he feels better soon.

We can't get thru a game in August without 2 players being out with injuries.Where does Cal find these guys a 5* nursing home or the local urgent care clinic.

Jemarl is out too. I'm getting very concerned about him.

 

[DerekMcPwn]

Preseason: “We have such great depth! Injuries won’t even be an issue!”

First game of the season: “We only have eight players.”

He is gonna get lost in the shuffle.

Wrong. Shooters play...this kid isn't a scrub..he's a 4star player and the best shooter on the team.

He hasn't been found in the shuffle yet

 

[Pulaski Cat Fan_rivals377587]

You got that right.

Can't shoot if he is out all the time. Never said he was a scrub.

Maybe Cal should think about filling all 13 scholarships each season? 10 scholarship players this year now down to 8. 11 scholarships last year 4 guys out injured at times. Cal said 7 not enough to scrimmage. Fill the roster out!

 

[Bluegrassking]

Super young guys with back issues is generally a concerning mix for me.

EJ and Quade please build up those cores best you can!

 

[Wildcats1st]

More minutes for Reid nick and pj or 3 guard lineups

It's hard to do that because we'd have to be recruiting and offering too many guys with no scholarships actually available and if too many randomly stay then you've got huge problems and burn your credibility one way or the other.

Gotta be unhappy and contemplating a transfer....

It hurts when I laugh.

Won’t hear an argument from me.

I'd love to see him play. Sure could use his shooting.

 

[ftp000]

Between AAU, and school ball, and all the exhibitions, seems like more and more of these guys are showing up to college already broke down.

Will his knee get better if he transfers?

 

[Poetax]

Baker is happy and says his knee is doing well. Can’t wait to get back. Stop worrying folks.

 

[Primedfor9]

I'm concerned too, but it seemed obvious Baker wouldn't be playing in these games.

 

[BigBlueFanGA]

True but they reported he still has swelling of that knee. Thats disconcerting.

 

[Black Diamond Cat]

Yeah, it's not like he had a leg amputated, he will be back !

 

[ZaytovenCat]

The ole “back hurts” huh? Hmmm...

 

[Poetax]

The ole “back hurts” huh? Hmmm...

Tight back.

 

[flacat22]

The ole “back hurts” huh? Hmmm...

Don’t start

You said he was gonna get lost in the shuffle...and I'm saying that 4 star great shooters will play. When he's healthy he'll see minutes, probably more next year though as Herro has forged his way into starters minutes.
