Butler's injury/injuries is starting to really concern me
Didn’t seem to matter against Lanier, Zeigler and the gang. Arkansas is without Boogie Fland.
them announcing he is out a day before the game again isn’t the greatest news
Well, the only good thing is that we will have more shooters on the floor. Cal will probably press us knowing we won’t have a true point guard on the floor. Even though he hardly ever does, he might try it tomorrow.
I don’t think that makes any difference. They’ve likely knew all week he wasn’t playing tomorrow
Sure would be nice to get Butler and Carr back at a 100% this season. Hope that's possible at some point. But if Carr still can't move any better than we saw in that minute at TN, then he's no real help. And I think the much less impactful Butler we saw when he last played is a direct result of his being less than 100% - so more of that may not necessarily help much either. Here's to hoping an all hands on deck with everybody helping to pull the wagon keeps working.
Don't Worry guys-I am sure that the "Mountain Mamba" will make his presence known! Go BBN!!!!
Fine with Butler staying out. Get rested and get healthy. We will need him for bigger games.
To me it means he hasn’t been practicing at all, and like you said they have known he is isn’t playing
I’m fine with Almanor hitting 4-5 3s again
I think he means SEC Tournament, NCAA tournament, etc. Do you live in Mississippi?? Almost seems like you have this game circled.
I definitely want Butler back, he makes us better, but there's just something about having a knock down shooter as your pg. I think it makes you much harder to guard.
It worked in 2011 with Brandon Knight too.
Notice Tennessee scored a lot after Ziegler went to the locker room Tuesday night?

I was like wait, and then yeah, I don't think there's a single SEC coach I wouldn't take over Cal. Literally, not one.
With that “devastating” injury.
That’s what the clown 🤡 talking head kept calling it.
Wagner couldn’t hit in Rupp when he was a Wildcat. Tonight he probably hits 3-4 threes. Hope Pope tells his guards not to let Wagner go to his left on the drives.
I think the fact that when Robinson plays pg we have beaten some really good teams bodes well. It brings Brea into more minutes and starting Alminor helps our shooting also. I was worried about butler out for Ten because I thought we needed defense to beat Ten. But I don't think Ark's offense is a smooth Ferrari, so I'm okay with Butler out.
0ne other thing to note, it seems like every time a team has a week off, it throws them off. A little rust sets in.
Just like with that stupid camp Cal crap, our teams always came out playing much worse after that break.
We lost to Vanderbilt after we took a week off and we looked off that whole game.
Arkansas just had a week off, I bet they're going to have some rust.

This is a known thing in the NFL playoffs as well - if the #1 team can get rid of the “rust” quickly enough to overcome a hot wildcard team
Colkege football playoffs. All the teams that got the top 4 seeds and had a bye, lost right off the bat.
Look for Arkansas to be very rusty today. The ticket to catching fire offensively, is definitely not taking a week off.
