In this case, I think you’re wrong.

I don’t know you’re wrong, but I think so.

I used to follow American when Jeff Jones was the coach… but I don’t know anything about them other than it’s like $90K / year to attend.

Jeff jones was HC and Odom, J-Willy, Pete McLaughlin et al were assistants.

Forgot that Odom was an assistant there. And forgot about all of his assistant stops really.

Play style observations:

  • We should be able to get out in transition against them
  • They’ve got some rim protection (opponents shooting 66% at the rim and take a lot of shots at the rim against them) and general lack of big men issues (they’ve made 4 dunks as a team on the year, we’ve made 37)
  • They’re gonna get threes up; offense runs through their guards

Jacari wrist injury. Knowledgeable Sabre poster THECZAR says it was his non-shooting wrist.

Oh - I saw that already and it sucks. I was worried there was another rumor.

Yes, saw speculation of 4-6 weeks, which is survivable. He’s such an injection of instant O and vibes.

Better now than a month from now and especially better than 2 months from now.

Yep… we are chatting about this in VIP.

Never been down with VIP, only OPP. You know me.

Nailed it.

If the rumor is true, and based on my own experience, it should be less than 4 weeks (especially on non-shooting wrist).

If the Instagram video that uva basketball just posted is from today’s pregame then Jacari looks to be participating and is not wearing a wrist brace. But this feels early to be warming up so maybe it’s from Maryland? Odd to show old warmups

Edit: looks like scoreboard in the video says Maryland. So I guess they post the Maryland game warmup for whatever reason
