Cal today on Fredrick

If he runs down and hits a three before getting subbed, then I’m happy.

if Frederick sees a couple minutes of floor time on Tuesday, then I like my chances to get in also.

More specific and clear from Cal than what I expected, tbh

 

[IL Wildcat]

That sounds about right. Fredrick just hasn't practiced enough at full speed to get into this game very much. You hate to not let him get a couple minutes at the Garden though, so you try to get him in the game if possible.

 

[SemperFiCat]

If we lacked shooters, it would suck. But I don't see any reason to rush him back.

CJ has has some bad luck with injuries.I hope the guy can get totally healthy because he's a good player.

 

[Cawood86]

I'm scared. Cal gave an actual update on a player with some detail.

Maybe we are leading by so much that they bring him in as the cigar man with 45 seconds to go.😉

Cal said he would only play 7, maybe 8 players tomorrow night. Knowing Cal, who actually believes CJ will be one of those? No me. Allen should be one of those 8 before CJ.



Not

Not

Allen and Frederick are both outside the 8 that will see minutes

I think it’ll end up being 9.

The starting 5 + Toppin, Davion, Hopkins, and Collins.

Hopkins has a ways to go but the staff really likes him.

Toppin is obvious.

Collins out of necessity. He better figure it out quick because there’s no hiding him. We muhave his minutes.

Dontaie Allen will see action on Tuesday.

Hopkins & Collins will be completely over matched
They struggled against division 2 teams

not a chance unless UK is being blown out

Which ones parent's will be the first to complain they didn't get to play much/at all?

 

[LineSkiCat14]

If the best we can expect from a player is "1 or 2 minutes, up and down" a few times, then he probably shouldn't be playing. Not only does it seem like he's not 100%, but also, he might be more of a liability if he's not ready.

He won't be the difference maker this early. Roll with what we got.

 

[WildcatNC]

Expected him to say, "haven't even talked to him" 🤣

Which is exactly why I expect Collins to play and he def should not, Cal can't bury him on the bench.

Frederick’s a heady experienced D1 player. Does not make mistakes or turnovers. Lots for b-ball iq which we have lacked. Plays within himself and a dead eye shooter and scorer. AND he is a very good post passer which we haven’t had and certainly need. He will play a ton this season

If he feels like he can play let him have a couple of minutes to see how he does. I believe he will see a few minutes tomorrow night. Cal should leave it up to CJ.

If everyone else is hot from 3 just leave him out but if we get behind and are struggling you gotta give him a chance just to see.
