OG out for the season

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Tough break. Hang in there brother!

IU PR department at it again.

Anyway. Get well OG. I'll miss watching you "indefinitely".

We won't see him again in an IU uniform. Get well soon and go get yours OG.

[Oladipo 130]

Indefinitely means 1 game according to some people...but on a serious note I wish the man himself a successful recovery.

[Hovadipo 56,516]

I'd love to see OG in the stripes again, but it seems pretty unlikely. Hoping for a speedy recovery and all the success in the world for him, whatever his next step.

Wish him a speedy recovery. But my god this better not be an acceptable excuse

You know that a lot of fans are going to use this as an excuse at the end of the season.

No Crean stuff in here.

Appreciate it.

this brings up something that i have been curious about this season: conditioning. What the hell? TB is smoked last night looked like he hasn't even participated in "the sand pit". I thought we have the best conditioning program in the NCAA~! Then there is all of the injuries...hmmmppphhhhh. superior conditioning and strength training should mitigate injuries, correct? We sure have had a buttload of them for the past 9 years.

[TheWatShot 14,130]

Just a thought…but have the infamous 4 hour practices made a comeback? 

[Class of '66 Old Fart 85,051]

The University will stay quiet citing confidentiality issues but we'll know soon enough.  It was only a matter of days after Glass' announcement re:  the CKW termination that we learned the good stuff.  Same will apply here.

Is the confidentiality thing unique to IU? It seems like other schools are always upfront about injuries but IU is real hush hush about them.

We still only guess about Hartmans injury. Just sayin'!

With all the injuries Ive wondered if we are still under the Knight curse OR is there something more to it?

Do any NBA historians know of precedent of players getting drafted first round 4-5 months after an ACL tear?

Nerlen Noel had a knee injury, right?  Didn't he get drafted after the injury?

[Alford Bailey 12,397]

Hate it for OG. And if he does go on the the NBA good luck but boy wish we could see him reach full potential at IU

[Scooter D 928]

If he is out for the rest of the year, no NBA team is going to gamble on him.  He will be back next year.

[Scooter D 928]

Get well OG.

Yep. Tore his ACL in mid-February and then was drafted #6 that same year.
