Rumor: Terrence Shannon might be out tomorrow (being reported on Peegs)

That would be huge loss for them

I’m really not expecting much from X the remainder of the season. He been out so long now and still not practicing. Almost impossible to come back and get up to speed.

I’m ok with him being the first guard off the bench before Tamar at this point. 

We could use the XJ that ended last season and the good from the Xavier and UNC games. I'm not sure the impact an XJ returning from injury while pressing would look with this team. He was already a hot/cold type player but if he's that cold and pressing... that could get extremely rough.

Would be a devastating blow, trying to confirm this

There you have it, Illinois will be out with TSJ

Would say that as a third option working into game shape, he's still probably better as the third option in the backcourt behind JHS and Galloway as opposed to Bates.

Big news

[JSHoosier 21,483]

Hopefully we can get a bug lead and let Davis get some rest.

MUST.

WIN.

Need someone to carry my weight on the pure, unfiltered Illinois hatred today. I’ll get to watch/listen to maybe half of the game. 

[WayneFleekHoosier 49,749]

MUST.

WIN.

Is and isn’t. If we want to stay in #4 consideration it likely is. 3-2 over the final 5 keeps us in that #4-5 conversation in my mind. 2-3 drops up a seed line. 4-1 might rise us a line. Big stretch for seeding purposes.

I’ve got a strong feeling X plays tomorrow.  
 

I mean I guess they could roll him out there on the road next week but that doesn’t seem smart.  
 

Home environment would help the transition.  I’m ready to see him back in action, but a little concerned about chemistry rust and individual rust.

Rabby said earlier on Peegs that Xavier has not practiced yet from his injury. I know he's done some things but don't think he has had any contact yet. 

I still sort of think he might be back if cleared today. Race hadn’t practiced and just showed up in uniform for a home game.

I’d settle for being up just a cockroach or two.

I can promise you no Larry Scirotto today. Kelly, Mike & Eric are the officials. Just heard Underwood say good morning to them a few minutes ago. Kelly Pfifier is one of them.

Hightower and Valentine give me nightmares. Forgot about Bain.
