Unfortunately, Ajou still looked hampered by the foot injury. He just can't run full tilt.
If I remember correctly, Robbie had a couple of early first-half fouls that forced him to sit. When things went so well in the second half, I guess Tim elected to go with the hot hand: Garcia.
Maxwell looked lost at the three. I agree: He needs to be near the basket, scoring garbage points.

Re: the three -- Fair Play, 13:53:47 01/09/03 Thu
Great job last night. It really looked like a team effort, you saw everyone touching the ball. Ajou is still not 100% on that ankle. A couple of times he was on the floor it looked like he was limping. I don't think foul trouble was the reason Robbie sat. Besides the game against Yale he has been suffering this season. He can't handle the ball properly and he just looks lost out there. I don't know if it is a confidence issue or what, but Thomson can be a good player. Garcia is really getting into a zone down in the post. I liked seeing him play aggressive defense last night. If they keep feeding it to him in the post he will produce. He also had a couple of nice 15 footers vs LC and Yale. I think he can really open the floor up. Goode proved that he belongs in a mid-major program last night. His defensive abilities and keen passes make him a huge threat. He played smart last night. He knows he doesn't have the height to go straight to the basket so he passes out, which is something he didn't do last year. Delfico showed a few people that he can produce. I believe that it was the unselfish play of the team that led them to their victory. This is something we haven't seen from the FU basketball program in a while. Go STAGS.

Doesn't sound good for Ajou. Anyone know what the real prognosis is? Can he fully recover before season's end? As I said, we may have already seen his best games.

Ajou will ge a factor before the season is finished. He's shown progression in every game. Maybe he won't be the Ajou who averaged 15 points or whatever last season, but he'll help the team. He's one breakout game away from everybody saying he's back.

I couldn't agree more. That is unless he plays one more game, stops at 5, petitions the NCAA for a medical red-shirt - if he gets it (which might prove tough) he has next year and a FF MBA. I'm sure he's been considering his options.

Here's my opinion. Ajou's highest priority should be to get his MBA. If that means discontinuing playing this season and not being able to play next year as well, then so be it. We are talking about his future here and throwing a basketball through a hoop is only a small part of that future. If he quits the MBA program this year in order to play professionally next year, there is almost no chance that he will ever finish that degree and that would be a shame.

MBA and NCAA -- JoeStag, 08:08:12 01/10/03 Fri
RM, good point on getting an MBA.
The other factor is that it is not a slam dunk that Ajou would get another year by the NCAA. What I hear, is that from the Injury perspective, the NCAA has granted a lot of exceptions...... But when you look at players that had a transfer year, the NCAA has not been so lenient.
