Injuries

Hopefully nothing to serious.

• Lavin said both Harrison and fellow sophomore guard Phil Greene have been bothered by some nagging injuries in the preseason -- Greene to his hip, Harrison to his foot -- but neither injury appears serious.

Lavin also talked up Greene to the media. "Before Phil’s hip labrum issue, he came back and hit the ground running," Lavin said. "He was on a tear offensively."

The team was scrimmaging yesterday and both Harrison and Greene were playing and I didn't notice anything wrong with them at all so these injuries are either very minor or happened earlier this fall.

I'd love to hear an update on how the newcomers looked in the scrimmage.  Anything suprising?

Thank you for the news!

The people who have surprised have been Marco and Christian Jones, both will be good players for us. They were a little under the radar but have looked as good as the more hyped up players like Branch, Obepka, and Jakarr.

That's great to hear, because those two guys are our only players that weren't hyped prospects.

Thanks for posting this update.  This is the info you dont get anywhere else but on the boards.

Watching all the big men going at it has to be much different from last year.

We've heard a lot about surprises but are there any reports about any guys not living up to expectations or any returning players regressing?
