When we lose on Saturday he will officially be shut down for the season.

 

[STILLBUSTER]

At least he is up front about it early in the process. Normally we are told "2 weeks" by "the other program" and are wondering why the guy isn't on the field, 6 weeks later.

That's too bad for Mike, great freshman year....get well and make a speedy recovery.....other players will need to step up big....

heal it properly the first time

last thing the kid needs is a stress fracture

stress fracture + basketball player tends to be long term effed up

Leg injuries , doesn't matter what, are hard to heal from if not heal properly

If I remember correctly, Bobby Hansen had a stress fracture, returned too early and hurt it worse. Take your time with Gesell. He is an important part of our immediate future and if we have to marshall on the rest of the year without him, so be it.

Was that the injury suffered in the Clemson game in Iowa City......

Appeared that the Clemson player deliberately stepped on his foot from behind on a fast break. A tactic UCLA used under the command of Larry Farmer......

Larry Farmer.....All the money's gone no where to go.

I actually saw Bobby this week and asked him about it. He said it bothered him for almost three years before he got over it. As much as I don't wanna see it lets shut down MG

How long it bothers him will be dependent on the severity. Likely the most damage has been done already and he either didn't tell or they ignored which sometimes coaches do because of urgency of the moment. Painful injury. These can easily take years before no or little pain.

I don't mind Marble playing the point at all if he's healthy. Might open things up more for white, may, basabe and maybe even Oleseani. Marble will attract tighter D rather than flying out to the shooter. Tighter D on him means more help which opens things up.

Gesel is done for the year. That's Iowa BB. If Dev and Anthony can be solid still some tournament run for the Hawks.
