Quote from: Spencer Pratt on November 14, 2024, 09:07:41 PMCan't he technically play in 33% of the games this year and still redshirt?  So roughly 9 games.  If that's the case...hold him out and then bring him in for added depth late in the year. 

No.

Quote from: Spencer Pratt on November 14, 2024, 09:07:41 PMCan't he technically play in 33% of the regular season games this year plus all postseason and still redshirt?  So roughly last 10 games of regular season and then BET and NCAAT.  If that's the case...hold him out and then bring him in for added depth late in the year.

It doesn't work like that, it can't be the games at the end. If you come back from injury late, then it counts as a full season. Jay Bee could probably clarify the specifics better, though I expect he'd rather call out people for being wrong without providing said clarity.

I understand all that you wrote about redshirting-nothing new here. But...Your thoughts about Sean being willing to sit out another season-this time a full season-if he can play in January? He has got to be chomping at the bit! (with his speed, ...pun intended). Care to speculate? If not, I understand.

The injury must have occurred in the first half of the season and the athlete must have competed in less than 30% of the season is my understanding.

The Cadougan conundrum.   At what point of the season is it worth it come back and lose another year of eligibility?   When is he game ready?  How many minutes can he realistically play?
   It would be great if he is ready to go soon.

When people asked me 2 months ago, I felt very confident Sean was going to sit the season. Just from what I was hearing it sounded like the best long-term decision. Now, with Shaka talking about how he's close, I don't see them putting that out there publicly if there's not a real chance of him playing.

Purely speculating, I do think we'll see him this season. Not sure when, but January/February feels about right.

I do think it's different than Cadougan, because we've seen Sean at 100% and know he can compete at this level. He might need some games to acclimate, but he would be coming back to a team where there's a clear positional need (Cadougan had Acker, Cooby, Buycks, DJO all ahead of him) and he's not an unknown freshman learning how to play against high-major competition for the first time.

Thanks for your reply, Brew. I just cannot see him sitting out this season, even at the cost of using a year of eligibility.

I love me some SJ22. He was quickly becoming one of my favorite non stars last season, at the time when we were discussing if the team is much better off with more minutes to TyKo and less to him because of the metrics data.
How hard Shaka took his injury tells you everything you need to know about coach.
Kid was just starting to blossom.

Do we think he comes back as his old self, or as a more reserved lightning in a bottle pass first pg that's a massive disruptive force on the defensive end and helps break down defenses when the half court offense gets stagnant against elite defensive teams?

Longest run on sentence in history, but as you can tell I think he comes back as a slightly transformed version of hisself.
Hope he's working on that outside shot

I couldn't even begin to guess. My thought is you start him off at 5-10 mpg, see what he can handle, and increase his minutes as he earns them.

No. If he plays a single second in any of the "roughly last 10 games", a year of competition eligibility is used.

As long as he comes back a John "Magic" Dawson type player we'll be fine.

This year, I'd guess before conference season starts. But I'd say Jan 2025 to be safe.
