He said it's very complicated. He didn't go any further as people who aren't kenpom could never hope to understand.

[PAmedic]

so, how bad is this kid's injury?

is he back for VMI?

[olldflame]

He rolled his ankle. They're saying he's "day to day".

[Cider Jim]

Did BJ or anybody else sneak into practice today to see if Jesse was still wearing his boot?

[SethWeBelieve]

I saw him in convo today he is NOT wearing the boot but is favoring his injured ankle

[dompennix]

I talked to one of the players and i know hes not starting

[Hold My Own]

He was at the wrestling match tonight in his normal shoes about to do rehab....limping but it was good to see him out of the boot

[Cider Jim]

According to the local fishwrap, Austin Smith is starting is his place but hopefully NOT at the point.

when i talked to Austin he said he didnt think he was gonna start, i hope he does tho

[sweetnahmah1]

according to my friend in a class with jesse, he's not playing at all

[TylerBakersGonnaBGreat]

Thats what i heard too

[olldflame]

If he were healthy enough to play, I can't see why he wouldn't start. It's not like football, where you could come in for a specific set of plays, and he hasn't been out long enough for conditioning to be a factor. He could just as easily reinjure the ankle coming off the bench as starting. It's better to play it safe and hopefully have him at 100% for the tournament.

I very much agree, as much as it might hurt us these next two games, having him in the tourney I think is more important.

I agree...We definately NEED him for postseason play

[PAmedic]

I hate it when I'm right.

[SethWeBelieve]

I told you so i told you so i told you so we couldnt get our offense running without sanders. We started then we died started and died and we also needed that extra bit of energy he contributes on defense and on getting boards. WE NEED JESSE BACK!!!

[Cider Jim]

In Chris Lang's article in today's fishwrap, even he called Jesse our MVP. (I wonder where he got that idea?)

I agree with you 100%, but I also know that even with him it would have been an uphill battle the way they were shooting.

Well, the other guy who draws constant double and triple teams is pretty good too.

That said, even as freshman, this is the best backcourt tandem that I've ever witnessed at LU. I don't know if LU has ever had a backcourt duo that is as good as Jesse and Seth are right now. I'm just glad that we're just getting started and that we'll be adding Jesse's brother in a couple of years. Moving forward, this team is only going to get better.

Those 2 are awfully good. They would be good as seniors but to play like they do as freshmen is impressive. Jesse Get Well Soon

[thepostman]

Jesse is missed....come back soon!!

I know this team wouldn't be nearly as good as it has been without Seth and the attention he gets...but without somebody to set the rest of the guys up its just hard to win....

I can't wait for Jesse to be back and to be back full strength..if Jesse is healthy next week for the tournament...we will be a scary team for any team in the big south....

[Dr. Sheh]

Yeah, we kind of need Jesse back. A lot. And soon. Thats been obvious from the last two games.

[Cider Jim]

Those 2 WERE awfully good.

FIFY--I was hoping for a Bailey/SCAR reference.
