Damnit, with our track record, the NCAA will hold an early season tank in OOC games against us with all these kids out while in the next breath letting another team in with a 18-10 record due to getting hit down the stretch and key players out early due to injury.
I just want Colin cleared by Friday so we have a chance at a decent start to the year. We amped up the schedule expecting big things and now we’ve been cut off at the knees. I don’t want to go .500 in OOC games and get prison raped by Zona.

I think even without Sexton, we can have a pretty good start. Petty, Jones, and Giddens are all an upgrade to the roster.
But yes, please sweet baby jesus, clear Sexton before Friday (and heal the other guys quickly).

This was Memphis's lineup for their one exhibition
PG Jeremiah Martin/6'3"/184 JR
SG Kareem Brewton/6'2"/189 JR
SF Jimario Rivers/6'8"/194 SR
PF Kyvon Davenport/6'8"/211 JR
C Mike Parks/6'8"/260 JR
Davenport looks to be their best player.
Here's an article on their exhibition win LINK
I suspect we might see both Hall and Giddens start for us against them if that's their lineup. I still think they could go small with freshman guard Jamaal Johnson instead of Mike Parks.

decisions seem to be on the horizon which is good news
But you said this in regards to a quick Sexton decision:

They can't make a decision until they address some major fundamental problems beyond this investigation, which may take time
So what changed?

Honestly, I think Collin is good to go just a matter of when and not if. Im more concerned about Key at this point.

Avery said this morning it'll take about 4 weeks for him to recover. That's not too bad
Posted on 11/8/17 at 12:55 pm to Bamafan15
When he gets back we will have Giddens and Herb coming off bench..... Really excited about that.

The team leaves today

Im gonna be pissed off if the NCAA takes their sweet arse time, especially if Collin is innocent. Every game is crucial.
Posted on 11/8/17 at 1:22 pm to mistaken4193
What's gonna make me mad is if they don't rule him eligible today, Avery leaves him behind and the team goes to Maryland tonight to prepare for the game, and then the NCAA reinstated him and he's stuck at home and can't play friday
Posted on 11/8/17 at 1:25 pm to Bamafan15
Can he not travel while being ineligible?
Posted on 11/8/17 at 1:26 pm to Teague
I'm sure he can, but when they asked Avery if he would travel he keeps deflecting and saying "No new updates". He won't say yes or no. That means there's a chance he'll be left at home

Avery just sent a very happy looking tweet with lots of elephant emojis basketball emojis and smiling face emojis.

I'm a little pissed at the vague answers. Come on, Coach, we have to have an answer before we can ask for updates on that answer. Is the guy allowed to travel or not? frick, it's not a complicated question.
