They still can't take the tests for you even if they wrote the papers.

Too much hand wringing, not enough rallying around family w/a pocket full of shells. Markus can really go, but we had too many bigs before Yanick got hurt last year, and I'm not even including Shawn.

Ben, Yanick and Cannen are future pay for play kids. If we need an undersized warhorse on rare occasion to play up, Sterling Brown will leave blood all over the court, if LB tells him too. There's a lot left in the cupboard

ok... but there were long stretches last season when he was one of only 2 reliable offensive weapons we had on the floor (see: most road games). Hopefully that won't be the case this year with the growth and maturity of other guys.

I agree with this. I still see a very good team. I want Markus back because he seems like a great kid and could have a decent future ahead of him. He certainly would be a great contributor. But I still think we are well armed for battle.

What is meant by Markus can really go?

How close is he to regaining eligibility?

Marcus looked like he has dropped another 10 pounds.

Yes, he did.

It means that he can ball.

The fact that LB is letting him practice seems to be a good sign that LB believes things will work out.

Isn't that standard protocol until he is officially not eligible?

Ben E and Tolbert are both practicing, that's normal

precisely where we, as a fan base, need to be mentally.

#1 the team is stacked and we will be immensely better than last year even without MK.
#2 stop acting like a victim all the time and soon enough, the bad things that happen won't seem so bad anymore.

I really think this MK eligibility situation will work its way out.

agreed, it's not over til it's over
