Bradshaw shooting around in warmups

[Dontworryboutit23]

I hope/confident he is plays because he can offer so much to this team when he gets to play. He looks to be moving good here, I just wonder what the unclear timeline and return at this point is. Is it conditioning based or is the foot not fully healed idk

I predict we will be in the dark about Bradshaw until we’re not.

 

[kafka0117]

We don’t know, and we’ll never know. He’ll just enter the lineup one night. We’re just paying fans. We’re not meant to know

Totally agree.

Just a situation all too familiar with this program. lol

He Play

And honestly that's fine with me. It's not like the fanbase knowing makes him heal any faster. We're not obligated to know the health status of an 18 year old.

10-15 years ago, we wouldn't even have video of a game much less a walk-around practice. The minute scrutiny every day of someone healing from surgery is absurd. He wasn't hurt when he arrived. Let's hope he can contribute this season after healing completely. Ask this question: Would you want your child to play hurt for his youth team knowing it may lead to a long-term injury...I think not.

 

[cmallory]

Did he ever have surgery?

 

[benbgky]

It’s a little early to warm up for the combine but to each his own I guess.

Just going thru the combine workout, that way it’s second nature

 

[westerncat]

Did he do any running ?

Actually, he was injured in the McDonald's All-American game. He just tried to allow it to heal without surgery but it kept bothering him. He had the surgery to supposedly resolve the problem so he could play in 3 months. That was 4 months ago.

This video gives me hope that he is VERY close to returning. Would LOVE for Cal to be SANDBAGGING and BOTH of Bradshaw and Ugo will be available for KU!!

Likely want see them play until sometime in December.

Ugo ain't playing anytime soon. Bradshaw and Z for KU would be awesome.

 

[G-PIP]

Bradshaw's movement looked great in that video. Ugonna was obviously still much more limited physically (e.g., Ugonna stayed planted on the floor).

 

[JwUKFan11]

Ugo ain't playing anytime soon. Bradshaw and Z for KU would be awesome.

If Bradshaw is back before Ugo I will be absolutely shocked.

 

[rob_47]

If Bradshaw is back before Ugo I will be absolutely shocked.

Sounds like that is going to be the case. It is looking like bradshaw could play right now the way they are talking up his activity and etc. Cal sounds very confident in these guys and our bigs.

 

[uk78]

What did you see in the video that he is close or very close to returning? He was hardly moving his feet, not dribbling, just standing and launching some 3 point shots?

 

[westerncat]

Was anyone at the game that could tell us more ?

 

[ukjenning44]

Get there early if you want to see him play

I would agree with you that Ugonna didn't look close to returning. And I know we can't draw absolute conclusions about how close a player is to being 100% from that video. But didn't you think Bradshaw was moving, dancing, jumping around all loosey-goosey to a degree that one might have thought he was ready to go now?

Definitely looks like a guy who's still recovering from intense lower body surgery.

 

[sammysdad05]

It was fun watching sharpe in warmups too. Bradshaw taking the same path.

I though he was moving fine, not great but good

Cal said tonight that he would miss the first two weeks of the season.

Take that with a massive grain of salt. We will see Bradshaw in January.

We need Z to get cleared yesterday. Damn NCAA dragging its ass.

 

[HagginHall1999]

We all get what the law says. I don't necessarily want to know what his injury is. But, what's the harm in being more specific about time frames for a return?

Because it doesn't really solve anything. If UK says 5 weeks people get pissed and say Bradshaw said September.

Just like now...Cal said 1-2 weeks so now if he doesn't play until Dec 2nd people will get pissed.

The general timeline provided on Pro Day seems to be accurate with recent update.

Lastly, these foot injuries are different for everyone. Guy is 7' and has a future ahead of him...kid gloves.

 

[BigBlueManSouthCentralKY]

Cal said that they are having to hold him back because he is wanting to play now. Said if it was up to Bradshaw he would have played against KY ST.

Yes, but cal is doing this some to troll the fanbase like he is with the Z updates, he thinks some of it is funny.

Prepare to be shocked lol

 

[mebeblue2]

i understand that a few fans have "Sharpe Derangement" but i really have a hard time understanding why anyone would think the Bradshaw situation is anything like the Sharpe situation
truly boggles my mind

 

[UKBB4Ever]

No he's not. And no he doesn't.

 

[kybassfan]

I read right here on Rafters that this kid intends to screw KY, Cal is in on it and and Cal is withholding medical information that ‘special’ KY fans are entitled to by birth. So this must be factual right?

I also heard a really stupid rumor that the kid is eager to play as soon as he is cleared to do so. I mean who could believe utter nonsense like that.

 

[BigBlueManSouthCentralKY]

Coach also said that Ugo is two weeks behind Bradshaw.

 

[Dontworryboutit23]

No he's not. And no he doesn't.

Yes he does, he clearly enjoys messing with us, that’s why he does

What’s the second part your talking about

 

[kybassfan]

What’s the second part your talking about

I know right? Why would he want to play basketball. After all he’s a basketball player.
