If he's performing in practice and doing the things LB wants, he'll get the minutes.............

It may have more to do with not starting than minutes. I do not know for sure.

coach said "he wants to start and play 35-36 minutes and that's just not in the cards". It's a shame if he quits on this team. Jalen could become a great 6th man. He needs a history lesson about John Havlicek

So he no shows? Or coach tells him not to come? Big difference. No show is hard to recover from

this is bad news, but something had to give, we have too much talent. Better that it happened earlier than later, maybe Jalen will cool off and think twice about this. Lets hope. We need his toughness.

Jalen could really help this team. He needs to learn how to be a man. This isn't a little boy's game.

Come on JJ, the fans love you.

You have to feel that Brown is telling interviewers behforehand not to ask about Jalen, I think that is a good sign and he wants to give him every chance to come back without being publicaly called out.

Come back Jalen, you will still get plenty of minutes and be a part of a much better team.
Probaly won't happen...BUT...maybe it will!!

it was going to happen, but Jones is being a giant wuss. I could care less if he comes back, cause I'm not sure I've seen a more cancerous locker room act in quite some time.

bottom line is that Jalen is a "tweener" that might not have the skills you want from your 3 and is not quite as long as you want your 4 to be, so as good as he was for us last year, he might be the odd man out this year. Will be interesting to see whether he suits up at all this year or just decides to transfer

Probably provides an upgrade opportunity, but we could use his fire this year.
