First game back Kentucky? That would be sweet.

Honestly, why would we expect the ncaa to change their stance that they won't deal with stuff involved in the trial until after the season? Dok getting hurt probably isn't going to make them push their time line up.

I don't think we will ever get anything official. If we're going to play him this season we are likely going to have to do it at our own risk.

I think I saw something where that guidance was lifted.

And, a really good chance there are no more trials.


If Davis's sources are correct, NCAA's already looked into the UMD booster. There is no reason to wait on SDS.

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves, but how would he fit in with this roster?

Can he play alongside Dedric? Or will there be more spacing issues?

Can he play as the lone big to spell Dedric? How much would we really wanna play without Dedric out there?

Dedric would play better next to De Sousa than he did Udoka. Gives us more 3 out 2 in looks. It would help out our guard rotation's heavy minutes. Pushes Grimes to 15-20 mins/game.

We know from last year that Silvio can hit the short-mid range jumper and is a decent (65-70 percent) free throw shooter. I think he could be the lone 5, or play with DJ.

After a year in the system, I think we would be surprised at his versatility.

"Would," rather than "will," being the key word in that sentence.

Davis says we will know by next Saturday. Things are in motion.

How can they know when they're announcing a decision if they haven't made a decision? Do they vote on this sort of thing or something?

This whole thing is fucking up the season.

Clear him and let us play.

That is why I think it is coming from one of the Asst Coaches...they hear about twice removed. Plus Davis has tripled down on this. He believes his source is extremely credible.

Maybe his source is Bill

Doesn't make sense. The decision is made when it's made. The whole deadline of next week doesn't make sense to me personally. Unless SDS has decided if he's not cleared by next Saturday he's going overseas and/or preparing for a professional career in the NBA/G-League.

I meant Seth. Just "Davis" was vague.
