eh, just means Rozier will go off for double what he would have... and some lowly bench player will go off

 

[OttoinGrotto]

He gone!

 

[Alsacs]

Is he good? Is this addition by subtraction? Rozier, Harrell, Blacksher are the guys I have seen this year. The thing I remember most about Jones was the awful flop he did against Kentucky this year.

He averages 13.6 a game. They get nothing from the bench. This might be good for us.

 

[BludOrange]

Not having him to hound whoever is bringing the ball up for us will result in a few less turnovers for us.

He's a chucker

Jones is excellent with ball handling. Very fast/quick. Good D and make steals. Streaky shooter, either really on or really off. Gets overzealous and out of control at times, playing a little more like street ball. I have not heard locally more about the suspension yet. His replacement will be Quentin Snider, local product. He's a freshman who is very good, but with limited PT so far. It's a big loss for UofL since it reduces their depth at the point. Rozier is a SG, not PG.

Agreed. I don't wish ill on players like this, but I'll take any advantage we can get. Jones is a good player--his loss will impact them.

This is the area we can benefit most with Jones out.

Right, any advantage is a good one. Pitino has pwned Boeheim over the last decade. No victory is cheap at this point.

yeah and we are playing without Chris and d.c.

We are actually 3-2 against Louisville since the infamous presser after West Virginia in 2011 when Boeheim went off on Waters for suggesting he can't beat Pitino.

I believe we have also won the last two games at the Yum! Center.

You don't know your business.

So we can now expect little used Quentin Snider to have the game of his life and torch us for 20.

It wasn't Waters. It was Donna. He asked Mike what his record against John B. was.

Boy, that sure bit him in the @ss. 0-2 since then.

Pitino is 9-4 vs. Boeheim since he arrived at Louisville.

I know. My post doesn't fit your M.O.

Kyle Kuric is not walking through that door.
