And this is exactly what I was afraid of all along with Tyus. Suddenly over the last two years, he's become really injury prone.

Pull his scholarship. KJ can run da show.

Yes that's exactly what I was suggesting.

Meh. I think (hope) he was facetious.

Oh I know he was. I'm probably reading too much into the intent of the post.

Exactly. Some people can't take a joke. I guess that's understandable though since we're talking Syracuse hoops.

Hopefully instead of buying retro Jordan's someday we'll be buying retro Battle's

Coming this spring!

Likely due to the long lay off from the foot injury. The foot reoccurring would really worry me. Sounds like a slight muscle pull in the quad so hopefully no big deal. I do agree that its something to keep an eye on.

I agree - a quad strain is typically just caused by the stress of the muscles having not been used much lately, and he wasn't easing back into it - he jumped right back into competitive tournament action. So it's no surprise that his body wasn't ready.

That didn't stop me from writing something up, though. I never realized he also had a broken wrist during his sophomore season, in addition to his foot issues last season.

 

[HOFCeluck]

Not worried

 

[creatorsgam]

Doubt he is working with a training staff the caliber of Syracuse at the moment. No worries unless it happens under their watchful eye.

 

[CuseHulk]

He'll be fine. Call me if he is injured going into Fall 2016.

1-800-HANCOCK?

1-800-HANCOCK?

For some reason, I think of this every time I see Hulk post:

He needs a really good strength training program so he doesn't hurt himself with his mamba moves!

What's your number?

Changed his Twitter avatar. Now it's official and we can chill.

Our staff got Andy, and Devo back at top condition after ACL tears so Tyus should be ok.

Thanks, Mr. Cuban.
