Not sure how I missed this article, but thank you for linking.

Consider myself a member of the Eli fan club. Hope he is a huge part of the team this year from a MPG and from a leadership perspective. Seems like a terrific young man and very charismatic. People will want to follow him.

Go HOOS.

Just a reminder of what Elijah is capable of and will bring to the table next season.

The amount of :poop: I talk to my friends group that consist of all Duke/unc fans I really need him to ball out! I’ve been hyping him up for 2 1/2 years now. All they say now “aye your boy Eli gunna get any run next year” ready for them to eat crow!

Rolling Eli out for major PT better be a significant part of the master plan next season. If I see Rohde step on the floor on day 1 instead of Eli I think I will just stop watching.

All the national guys who have no clue who he is are in for a big surprise. And – as we are all saying, but I reiterate – for the love of God modify the offense, Tony! So much potential!

By now I’m assuming folks on this thread have heard the horrible news - EG most likely out for the season due to scooter accident. Apparently happened last week - before transfer adds. I don’t know any more than that but devastating. Kid can’t catch a break.

I put this in the VIP thread, but who has verified this is a season-ending injury? I know HGN verified it happened, but I can’t find any definitive information regarding exactly how serious this is. Obviously, it is bad, but seems like there a lot of rumors here.

Not sure why we wouldn’t use the last scholarship given the coaching staff has known for a couple weeks.

Theczar had this to say (he’s usually spot on). So maybe the “at some point” is meant to mean that he could return during the season. But I would imagine there are only a couple people that actually know the answer and they aren’t on these message boards. We’ll just have to wait and see
