JQ could be a huge asset to this team on the defensive end and overall rebounding. He gives absolutely nothing on offense other than rim rattlers which is fine. A lot like Mo IMO but Mo is extremely valuable to our team when he sticks to his role. JQ simply hasn’t played enough to prove his value to the team and that likely won’t happen (at least this year) and I’m be indifferent if he came back to try and play this year at this stage.
JQ swelling
- Thread starter Jgrass34
- Start date
I'm sure it's nothing but a coincidence, that the swelling coincided with his family speaking out on social media about how pope was utilizing JQ.
Damn that sucks! Yeah, it was very noticeable that he wasn’t nearly as mobile after the SJ game. He looked completely different against SJ.
I think he’s more Shadeon Sharpe than we want to admit. I think he did want to play initially, but when he got exposed his handlers shut him down.
Did anyone see the woman from Italy win the downhill gold medal last night? She had a severely broken leg in April last year. I’m not saying it’s the same thing, but I also don’t think JQ is as injured as we are being told either.

Wouldn’t it be a nice if he used UK to rehab and signed to play for Cal next year? That would just be great.
Either the kids hurt and probably needs another surgery, but no one can know that because that might hurt his draft stock. Or he’s healthy enough to play but limited physically, but won’t cause that might hurt his draft stock.
JQ is the new Shaedon Sharpe...
bet ya he is making bank because he doesnt want to sac his draft status

I believe TF cats is a fan, but he's the most miserable SOB that has posted on here in a long time. He makes Zaythoven look like Joel Olstine.This is embarrassingAnd it got likes lol .He tore his ACL , meniscus, and fracture is knee cap just under a year ago. It's obvious after the St. John's game he was struggling. Also Im sure you understand how bad leg injuries can be on a big man. But yeah he's faking . That was the dumbest thing I've read on rafters in a while .
popes usage of him was poor even when he was playing, kept bringing him off the bench and stuff, not good
Perhaps, but, never played enough to adjust how to actually use him.
i think he shoukdve started in fromt of mo, jq and moreno at the 4 and 5 wouldve been a good 1,2 punch
He wasn't in game shape to start. You really don't understand basketball, do you?
Honestly, hard to even have an opinion on JQ. Perplexing to sign a huge NIL deal with a player that was a big question mark at best. Much better and safer players out there to invest in.
looked plenty good enough vs sj, so pope decides to bench him lol
i wouldnt be talking about basketball knowledge if i were you
Limited minutes due to coming back from injury. Not that hard to understand. Had swelling issues not come up, he may well been starting. He only appeared in three games.
You prove with every post, you don't know much.
If he ends up getting surgery I will definitely apologize for my opinion on it. I’m sure he swells and is sore sometimes but his dad’s comments make me not think it’s just that.
There really should be stipulations in contracts that you have to play a certain amount of games to get paid.
Exactly. His “potential” is why he was so high on draft boards to begin with. He’s far from polished and heavily relied on athleticism to be effective. If im a GM there’s no way I’m taking him until the end of the first round at the earliest. Those teams can afford to take the risk. That’s assuming he’s even 100% by draft day and I doubt he will be at this point.
He’s odd for sure. Like he thinks he’s LeBron. Watch him after the first game he played in Rupp. Like he thinks we would all worship him and he thinks he’s the prize of the team. I wish I could see him and tell him to sit his punk azz down somewhere. Every time I see him in the huddle I wonder why he’s allowed to keep using UK.
