Been resting up during bye week and Allen & Holloway ‘Questionable’. WTF?

How does that fucking happen

They were hurt against Oklahoma and that's why they are questionable.

The Angel of Death doth not dwell behind every corner.

Good morning everyone and Roll Tide!

I’ll admit, I don’t think Bediako should be on our team, and bringing him in after the midway point of the season is odd. Since he is playing, I hope he provides a good boost to the team. But I don’t know how much folks expect from him, he’s not exactly been good in the G-league. In 3 seasons he averaged 12 games, 7 PPG and 6.3 RPG. Below average scoring and slightly above average rebounding (but he’s 7 feet tall!). I don’t expect that he comes in and scorches the earth with his play.

I think some of the expectations for him are a bit wild, but he's definitely a welcome piece in terms of depth and a defensive presence.

Ironically, feels like they need help in the backcourt tonight.

Holloway and Allen are out. People are blaming Henry Barrera, which I can see. But Oats' runs his practices pretty hard at times.*

*rumors are they have the flu. Lol. We can't catch a fucking break

Where did you see those?

Personal message with guys close to the program.

It wouldn't take a lot for me to swear Nate plays loose with the injury reports.

Flu was my guess when it popped up without mention all week. I know Holloway’s wrist is iffy still, but the flu has been on a rampage around UA this past week or 2.

 

[Brandon Van de Graaff]

Then again, with some pills, one can play with the flu.

Nothing official yet, so I'm hopeful they can play through it. We really need Allen more than Holloway.

In the second half last week a bit of a nasty spill tweaked the wrist again. He's not been able to get through it yet. Off the top of my head I can't remember when the ankle thing started with Allen.

Anyway...

Think it was late rebound vs OU for Allen. He definitely tweaked it but came back.

Probably re-injured it yesterday in practice running the Oklahoma drill.

I remember in Oats' second season, he took a direct shot at Musselman for them practicing hard in weighted vest. Kind of funny when you look back at it considering how many injuries we have. But it also makes team tougher (both physically and mentally).

And here's the official report

 

[Rolltide24]

Did somebody say flu?



Side random thought. Ever known anyone in the background of an all-time viral photo like this? Would be a cool conversation starter.
