I've been working a lot and haven't posted lately, saw the bad news on Kennedy, hopefully he's back in a few weeks. Anyhow, didn't see the game but looked at the box score, looks like the big guy had a good game. This seems to me that this is a extremely deep Pony team that can have a nice run at it if Kennedy returns. My question is, does it look like Markus will return and can this actually be a good thing because it will give other players chances to step up? Also, how did the transfers look and will Tolbert be allowed to play this year, thanks so much guys!

Tolbert will not play this year. Of course it would be better to have Markus now since we are about to play some really tough games but Yanick is healthy and much more confident. Ben Moore could have an all-conference type season. Regardless of who is eligible or available, Ben will be on the floor. He's that good. Cannen is steady as always. We will be just fine until MK gets back.

Kennedy will be back. Team is good and will be better with him.

Announcers said first 9 games. I haven't seen that posted anywhere else officially. Not sure if that was conjecture on their part (until end of semester) or if that's official. Would have him back by the Michigan game and then of course of all conference play.

Thanks guys, Purdue is where I graduated from and will always be my number 1 team but I can honestly say SMU is a close second, I think they play IU this year, I hope they drill them!

It would be right after the posting of grades in December. Maybe some student knows when that will be.

I looked at the basketball schedule and the academic calendar. The 10th game is the last day of finals. I would assume MK could be eligible for that game if he gets his grades up and his professors grade his finals quickly

I have several SMU professors/Aministration people sitting around me and they are confident MK will be playing in December.

Great to hear.

Is one of them a certain history professor who attends lots of games?

Looking forward to seeing him in Michigan.
