Thiero out tonight

People going to have to scramble to find who to bitch about isn't getting enough minutes now.

Reed gets good run now so can't be him. Z isn't eligible so that's out.

Who will it be?
 
Adou is our best rebounder, defender and most physical player.

We should roll Illinois state even without him. They’re about the same level as Louisville.

If we struggle in this game after getting beat by UNC W…well… i don’t really know what to tell people.
 
Saw him wearing a back belt in the last game. Worried me then but I thought maybe it was just some kind of UK techno warming thing. Guess not. Back problem heal slow. Hope this isn't serious.
 
Burks is next man up. He’ll be 9th man tonight. Probably a few more minutes for Bradshaw and Onyenso. Wouldn’t be surprised if Cal uses this opportunity to play Bradshaw at the 4 and Onyenso at the 5. Cal loves playing the big guys together.

I understand that. But just like with most things UK related they never share the truth.

Next thing you know he will be out for 2 months.
The truth is none of our business tho. Multiple sports do this, general soreness, upper body injury, lower body injury. They’ve talked about his back all year and he’s sat out parts of multiple games due to his back. He would be out just the same if they called it back soreness or general soreness.

It's our business now that we pay players and bet on games.
 
Been openly reported he's had nagging back problems, spasms, etc. It sucks and can almost never get better if you have to be an active athlete.

Probably should have rested him against UL and tonight to get him back to 100%. Could have rolled UL with Burks and Ugo.

What additional information would you like? The reason he's out doesn't have any impact on him not playing. He's out. Make your bet accordingly. If you bet yesterday only to find out he's out today, oh well those are the risks of betting on sports.

Get better big guy. At least we don't have anyone at Zion Williamson's level of absenteeism.
 
Interesting that even without him, we still held them to 70, and that's with the cigar squad coming in and our team generally checking out in the last quarter.
 
Would've loved to have some of his rebounding and energy that we weren't getting from the bigs in this game. Get better, big guy, we're gonna need you.
