Kent and Henry

[Tommy]

Coach, any idea what's going on with these two guys and if there's any chance of getting either or both of them back come tournament time?

[Da Coach]

Jayson Kent is still day-to-day. Just a guess, but I think he will be ready for the tournament, hopefully sooner.

Henry continues to be evaluated daily. That's all I have heard.

Thanks for the update, Coach!

Does anyone know what is wrong with Kent?

[Da Coach]

Just my observation, but I'd guess it's a sprain. Bradley doesn't reveal a lot of information regarding injuries.
He's had the right wrist wrapped since before the ISU game on Feb. 19, but if it was a fracture or a more serious injury, there would have been a splint or cast.

I cannot imagine Henry playing this year. Even if he is ready to come back for the tournament, how many minutes a game would that be? He hasn't played hardly at all in months. If he could give us 5-10 minutes a night that would be asking a lot not being in game shape in a back-to-back-to back potential situation.

I would have him heal the rest of this year then come back next year. Look at the team we could have next year. If all the key players come back

I imagine Henry's playing career is likely over, I couldn't see him coming back for another year or even playing again this year. Head injuries aren't the same as injuries to other parts of the body.

Let's have Henry dress for the MVC championship game and let him get in the final mop up minutes after we're up by 30 on Loyola. I can dream, right? :-)

He needs to be available to walk out on the floor for the senior night presentation. He doesn't need to take a chance with his long-term health

Question.....can he even come back next year if he wants? He should not play again this year for sure, but would welcome him back next season.

Yes, he could return and play one more season under the NCAA Covid rule from last year that granted all athletes another season of eligibility.

But I believe, unlike this year, they do count against the 13 scholarships if they come back for a fifth year. So we could have anywhere from 1-3 open rides right now, pending other players leaving and Jashon and Ari's decisions.

Yes, it makes the coaches' jobs a little more difficult judging how many open scholarships they'll have.

If there is only 2, we need another PG and another Center.....with 3 a lights out 3 pt shooter!
