Mike will not be observed in uniform again until the start of the 2013-14 season.

Would not surprise me.

Fran just put out his teleconference that it's a possibility that Mike is shut down for the season

looks like another MRI coming up. and, for the record, they don't cast you for stress fractures in your foot anymore, unless it's a really bad one. he'll be in that boot for awhile. if that MRI shows even a small break he's done for the year. just not enough time left to heal it up and get back out there. bummer deal, for sure.

Fran sounded way less certain today that Mike will return this year. I suspect that he is probably feeling badly that they did not sit him weeks ago...just a gut feel from his reaction at the Presser after the game.

I certainly would endorse sitting him if there is any doubt. We are likely to lose to IU anyway,and we can probably still beat Ill and Nebby at home without him. Bottom line, he is only a frosh,has played a ton of minutes,and should not be pushed to play. Take the 6 weeks off,and get ready for summer workouts and the trip to Europe. Silver lining will be that Iowa can still make the NIT,and Sapp will get more playing time,speeding up his development.

No more Ronnie Lester's please.
Let the kid heal 100%.

From what they said on the radio Fran was insinuating he would be out for the rest of the regular season but is hopeful he will be available come BoneG tourney time.
