Next game- BU at Evansville, Wed. Feb. 25, 7:05 pm

[Out of Balance]

If it is not DD's shooting hand I would bet that he'll be in uniform. If it took 3 days for an X-ray it is probably just a small fracture and by taping it up a bit and a shot he should almost as good as before. Let's not get too alarmed here. DD will be able to drive to the basket and play D which are the two qualities he does best. I would hope the non-shooting hand with a shot does nor effect his FT. I broke my non-shooting hand and it did effect my game but we are talking about a player not a YMCA hack like me!

HACKER I'm not Dirty Player, Maybe

I've heard from my sources that Dodie will be fine and will play tonight. It's not a broken hand. My source didn't seem to be worried much at all.

I really hope your right BU we need Dodie to make a run in St. Louis!

Couple of posters on the fledgling EU Board think that Bradley will be no trouble at all.

It is good to have a positive mindset I suppose when the team you are to match-up with has had its way with you 7 times in a row.

Les says in the pre-game Dodie is playing with a bruise and a pad.

[SFP]

I'm sorry, gamesmanship is not flat-out lying. You can be deceptive about your team's situation without lying about it. Better to not say anything at all than to come out to the media and say it's a bruise and he should play tonight. If it's more than that and Dodie is in street clothes tonight, Les deserves the flogging from the Urinal star that he'll receive.

You are a little to harsh IMO. Lying???? this is what a coach is suppose to do in this situation. What are you suppose to do let a team really prepare for you????? JL's job is to win within the rules, period! This holier then thou attitude by some is just a joke.

[BradleyBrave]

Well, Dodie is playing. Good news.

[BUFAN]

Did anyone hear the other mic, the guy admits they're not quite D1, and they are whoopin on us this is unbearable, unbearable, and very embarassing.

No, I told you what he's supposed to do...shut up and not say anything at all. don't make arses out of yourself and the media should be a rule to live by.

[real fan]

Dodie should probably be sitting this one out as you can tell that he is having trouble catching and handling the ball, has not even looked at trying to score, not worth injuring his hand anymore as we need him more for the tour. , could it be more then just a bruise?T.Wilson cannot play his last game on the road like this as he needs to be a leader on the floor.

We live in the NitPick-n-Gotchya Era. The Media is all about the NitPick-n-Gotchya... to make arses out of everybody. Why not make the Media look like arses then?

But I agree... Coach should just say nothing.

But then the NitPick-n-Gtchya Media would blast Coach for not saying anything.

Can't win.

Might as well make them look like an arse when Coach will be made to look like an arse no matter what.

(unless some think Coach should always tell the truth - giving up info to an opponent which could have a hand in the outcome)

Again... can't win.
