Iam sure it has been addressed and I probably missed it, but is Ogbole going to play?

He working his way back from a knee injury suffered in March. From what I’ve read and gleaned, I doubt we see him until January, whereas I think we will see Mag at some point in the next few weeks.

Yup and since Mag was listed as questionable for Princeton hopefully we see him this weekend or by next week at the latest at least for a few minutes just to start working himself back into game shape

Pike wanted Mag to go and Mag said no? Coaches must respect how a recovering player feels, physically and mentally. Pike knows this.

Are you stating Pike judged Mag is ready but Mag refused the call to play ball?
Listen to the end of the press conference. Mag was cleared to play and it is up to Mag to tell coach when he is ready.

Considering an ACL tear is both a physical and mental recovery it's important to give the player ultimate control on when to come back.

Huh? Cleared for play doesn’t mean ready to play.
This ^^. Hopefully, this does not indicate the Coach, the player and medical/training staff are on different pages here. I just hope that Mag has been satisfied with his own recovery and there has not been some lack of progress or, even worse, some sort of relapse that he has not told anyone about. Yes...I can...I can worry about nearly ANYTHING lol. Go Mag! Go RU!

They are not rushing him. After he got cleared, he started practicing under controlled situations. They keep adding more until he is 100% ready. Everyone said that would be sometime in Nov/Dec. Even then I would not expect him to be comfortable and playing his game until Jan/ Feb.
