He will come back and someone else will get hurt.
At this point, that's not just being negative, it's flat out been the truth for far too long now.
As bad as we played in the uNC game, we win if we have Mo. He gets rebounds, easily the best rebounder we have. Really wish we won that one.

I’m just curious cause I didn’t pay attention to the 5 mins I watched of the game, is he jumping around during time outs and off the bench at moments??? We’ve seen many do this while on the bench in warmups for months, but it’s amazing how out injuries go from day to day to months to done for the season.

Watching him sit on the bench with all that bling around his neck...hmmm not a good look after the article about Oweh wearing that $$$ jacket in New York.

Sometimes money changes people and maybe we got a whole lot of “money” changing guys on this team, these guys better not spend it all now cause they sure are not making this kind of money going forward.

I mean, these guys got money now. Some of them might make over 5mil when their college careers are done. Theyre gonna spend it.

Crazy thing is, you could live off that $5mil the rest of your life even if you just throw it into a HYSA at 4%. That's $200k a year (before taxes).. you could live off that for the rest of your life if you wanted.

I agree 100%. What I am referring to is the optics. Like them or not, you don't see players from Duke, UNC, Mich St flaunting their worth in front of the camera like this while sitting on the bench.
Times a changing I know, but still not a good look.
Like the lady coming out the supermarket after using her EBT card and driving off in an Esclande or a Beemer. Optics do count.

I'm concerned about his fit even when healthy. He is another non-shooter that hurts spacing. Whoever you put at center is a non-shooter. A team is significantly easier to defend when you don't have to guard 2 of the 5 players outside. You can cheat in and help protect the paint.

Probably smarter to buy a bunch of ugly Gucci **** and constantly be leasing a new sports car.

Our rebounding sucks and he's an elite rebounder. We absolutely need him back asap, just stop taking 3's
