Battle out vs Pitt

[br801]

Was it that fall he took with 2 minutes to go, down 15?

Almost certainly. He had a hard time moving and was clearly in pain after he re-entered the game.

UNLEASH THE JALEN

Why was he brought back in?

 

[NineOneSeven]

Really hope he can get better this week before thurs/fri.

 

[Zippy1808]

Cancel the season

Couldn’t you argue tonight’s potential loss now can’t hurt them?

When I watch Battle play, I sometimes think what does this guy have to do to get a foul call? Well...injured, I guess.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Good thing we're not on the bubble.

 

[Domedude3]

Okay jalen, time to put up or shut up!!

We're in.

Even if we lose, the committee has to take into account our best player didn't play.

We're in.

But I still say we win tonight.

Hopefully, he’s just resting his back so he can carry us to the acc championship after being relegated to third team.

 

[Marty McFly]

clearly means he ain't playing the whole acc tourny. Hope it's not another Arinze injury type of scneario where he can't play for the NCAA's either.

 

[Cusesky8214]

Jalen going off for 20+ tonight!

 

[br801]

Why was he brought back in?

Good question. The game was out of reach at that point. He did come out when the benches were emptied for the walk-ons, but he was out there for awhile.

 

[CuseCactus]

I feel like the hoops team is becoming like football..... and vice versa

 

[Alsacs]

He got hurt in garbage time on Saturday.
I remember Jeremy saying something to the degree oh great the cherry on top is Battle is hurt.

Well we will get a look at Carey tonight.
I don’t want Howard playing 40.
Make the Marek the point forward in the halfcourt.
Buddy/Howard with Carey
Hughes/Oshae/Chukwu with Marek/Sidibe.

Win this game ugly and we are in.

Pitt is gonna really pressure the ball now...

 

[realorange]

Article posted says it's his hip not back.

 

[cuseinseattle]

Calmer than you are dude

Waiving the gun around

Calmer than you are

It looked like he landed on his hip Saturday.

 

[jdubs30]

Also I wonder if this just being cautious...

JB knows we’re in - but if we win tonight Battle plays tomorrow. If we were near the cut line wonder if Tyus plays

 

[PauliePeppas]

No harm losing without Tyus but I hope injury isnt serious obviously...wonder how coy Jimmy will be about in the postgame

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Wow! The news crashed Facebook.

He should be very coy regardless of the situation.

The PS article says that Battle would be doubtful for tomorrow.

Besides, when we play Duke tomorrow, it's house money.
