I've noticed that Bailey has gotten to play in two games (at least) this year. Somehow, I've missed watching any of the game action that he happens to slip in. I thought he wasn't playing this year. How is he moving? What are our season plans for him? Etc., etc., etc.?

I think any significant successs that we have this year will depend on him getting healthy and being able to backup Swat, play solid post D, rebound, etc. (Of course if Sidney qualifies it becomes much less of a concern.).

He looked bad tonight. He can't get near the rim, which is bad for somebody playing PF/C. I wish we had given his minutes tonight to Lewis, but 'Bury is toying with the sub patterns figuring out who can do what.

We need Sidney (in shape) to make any noise early.

I had thought the plan was to redshirt him to get him healthy. Either he didn't buy into that or Stans didn't buy into that and wanted to keep him moving through eligibility to open up a future scholarship.

I've found it interested that he's played some as well.

and is concerned about how much longer Kodi is going to be on the team (his next strike won't be just a suspension). I think the original plan was to redshirt him, but Stans knows if he has to play the SEC season without either Sidney or Kodi, he's going to need Bailey.
