HinnyHoosier Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 In the short segment I heard of Archie’s radio appearance he mentioned waiting on Rob to “feel better”, so I’m not betting on him to see the floor at Maryland. He mentioned McBob still struggling with his back and practicing about 50-60% of the time. Jerome and Race “aren’t available”. He did refer to Jerome’s leg issue as a “condition” and then corrected himself to say “contusion, or however you want to call it”. Those are all loose quotes from my otherwise tired and jumbled brain this morning as I’m best able to recall them. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Class of '66 Old Fart and Stuhoo 2 Quote

LamarCheeks Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 Archie on Rob: "As of right now, he's not (in a position to play at Maryland.) ... I'm encouraged to see him participate more in practice, but he has not been cleared to do anything full contact yet. He'll have another day today (Thursday), where hopefully we can get him moving in the right direction, but as of right now, there's no indication he'll play for us on Friday." On Davis: "De'Ron's still struggling a bit with his mobility. His ankle is sore. He's sorta in and out of practice. I'm hopeful he'll be available to play on Friday. But if he can't, Cliff Moore's gotta get in there and go. Fitzner's gotta give us more." On Forrester: "With his ankle, Jake still isn't doing really well." Jeez -- with what we had coming into this season and after the Marquette game, I thought we could be a top four team in the B1G and maybe a Sweet 16 NCAA team (I work with a Marquette grad who came up to me after that game and said "Boy, you guys are REALLY good!") ... But with all these injuries, we'll be lucky to finish .500 in the league and get a 9 or 10 seed. It's such a shame to see Romeo's and Juwan's only season together be so average because we're getting so hammered by injuries. pumpfake 1 Quote
VO5 Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 At this rate, we might get Rob back for the BTT Hoosierfan2017, Str8Hoosiers and HooHooHoo22 2 1 Quote
Hoosierfan2017 Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 I bet Nerlens Noel gets cleared to play before Phinisee, and he took an elbow to the face and then had his head bounce off the ground. VO5 and taco corp 2 Quote

All jokes aside I really hope Rob gets this behind him and gets back to normal, add Race to that as well. Concussions are no joke, my wife had a small skull fracture and concussion about 9 years ago. She still has trouble migraines, loud sounds, and takes seizure meds do to the accident. Quote
Aaron Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 As I have hinted at before I think IU has a stricter concussion protocol than most (and I have kind of heard this very second so it may not be accurate but it makes sense). Instead of looking at this as a negative I think IU should be commended for being extra careful not to injure someones brain long term. It is aggravating in some ways and Rob probably would be back at other schools (Race is a different deal and I believe that concussion would have kept him out months regardless of where he played) but I like IU being careful. I expect Rob back for either PU or at the latest Michigan but that's a total guess. Note the extra careful only seems to apply with head injuries since they let Romeo play through a bruised nose and wrist (he had a band aid on his nose for a game and still has a wrist wrap) and Juwan played next game after the ankle injury he suffered against Northwestern with a wrap for a couple games. With Deron it is an issue of trying to play through an Achilles injury that is hard to come back from so he is over compensating and injuring other parts of the body as he heals I believe (and a person who is a doctor in my family believes this also although he has no knowledge of team itself). McRoberts back appears to be chronic issue. In other words we have definitely been bitten by injuries more so than others but besides Rob it has been a lot of bad luck and no different than something any other school has or will go through. Rob and other head injuries are a different deal and IU is most likely over compensating but not sure that's a bad thing. This anger and being suspicious among fans would all be solved if IU would just come out and say they are extra careful with concussions compared to other teams and they are protecting athletes well being. This is where IU is making an error PR wise not how they are treating concussions. IUsafety, VO5, woodenshoemanHoosierfan and 1 other 4 Quote

Aaron Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 I just noticed Archie said today he is practicing on a limited basis but has not been cleared for full contact. Didn't he say last week he had not even returned to practice? If that is the case it would seem he is moving along and is hopefully full go next week. That sounds like a good step towards clearing IU's (probably overcautious as I said earlier) concussion protocol to maybe play vs PU. Str8Hoosiers 1 Quote
HoosierAloha Posted January 10, 2019 Posted January 10, 2019 If we lost to Michigan and Maryland on the road with Rob vs without Rob, how does that effect NET? USPS, do you have any insight into this? I know in previous years they would take into account injuries when looking at seeding. I wonder if they’ll still do that with the new NET system...Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners Quote
IUsafety Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 Where are our Doctors from, Purdue or maybe Kentucky? They have infiltrated our school and implemented a concussion protocol that sets us up for failure.Disclaimer: I am just joking.

Sent from my iPad using BtownBannersOnly time injuries come into play is if the injury is season ending otherwise it’s difficult for committee to say if a team would of won games if players that are injured would have played. This happen to Wichita St a couple years back. Van Vleet missed a chunk of the season and the shockers struggled. When he came back they were clearly a better team but the committee seeded the team to what their resume allowed. Last year Notre Dame wanted to say that they were a tourney team despite not having the resume claiming it they weren’t injured they would of won more games. Would they? Probably but committee can’t discount losses plus last year they lost to ball st at home and IU on neutral at full strength. Hope that helps. There was an article about seeding and injuries that Jerry Palm did a couple years ago. I will try to find it and post it Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app HoosierAloha 1 Quote
