Did everyone look healthy for tonight's game?

DMN -

"Coach Mike Dement ran a grueling practice Monday, one in which his players were made accountable for poor defense by having to endure extra conditioning sprints. In particular, Dement is perplexed by his team's trouble defending the 3-point shot and the low post."

TU will probably not miss 3's like they did in Tulsa...they went 8 of 36 and 0 fer in the 1st half. Parker must be contained.

Yes. Voc missed practice for class, but I dont think his health is any different than usual. Nigel mau see more playing time. Isham has the wrap off his wrist. Everyone looked ok.

The guy that torched us last year was a big guy, Charlie Davis. He's from Grand Prairie and guys from the Metroplex always seem to play their best at Moody in front of their family and friends. Davis is a senior too, so I expect him to play really hard and well tonight. Seneca Collins is another guy from the area that when he gets on the floor will be dangerous. Of course Dante Swanson and Jason Parker will have to be contained from outside. In one way I am glad Antonio Reed is gone because he always lit us up, but on the other hand he was supposedly part of a team problem they had which they seem to now be putting behing them. This is a huge game for SMU tonight coming off a bad road trip. To me, it might end up making the difference between a respectable season and a disappointing one.

What's the latest on Nigel Smith's health? I read somewhere that his sinuses were acting up again. I take it he's better?
