Step up somebody

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

Wait a minute, if his injury is bad enough he could miss the SEC opener, why the F did he see the court against Norfolk State. Sorry, doesn't add up. He's going to play.

[SNAFU]

Aidoo has been slowed by an ankle injury and an illness in the last couple of weeks.

Not quite 100%, but he’s playing, almost assuredly, unless something comes up unexpected these last 24 hours or so.

Awaka is more than capable playing extended minutes if need be.

 

[Unimane]

Awaka is more than capable playing extended minutes if need be.

Capable, yes, but also a danger of foul trouble at any time with his level of aggressiveness.

 

[orangemadam]

reduced minutes could actually be a blessing. Time to heal up and
gives Estrella and Philips needed experience.

Could explain some of the early minutes Estrella got the other night. Really glad to see he has an inclination to take it all the way to the rim and flush it. Wish Aidoo was more aggressive that way.

I'm glad to see it. Been waiting for years to see Aidoo "turn the corner". Still a box of chocolates. Estrella has way more offensive skills and even at his age/development has shown to be more aggressive than Aidoo. Is he ready for the Rebel twin towers? Doubt it, but that's not been our game for a while now so if he and Awaka can just hold their own, I'll be fine. Gonna need a big jump from Estrella come next season. Needs all the seasoning he can get.

Estrella getting more minutes because he’s earned them, per Barnes. He said it’s imperative to have another big with lots of experience as we head towards the goal at hand.

And I agree. He has a lot of potential.

Interesting that Phillips was the first freshman post off the bench earlier in the season and lately it’s be Estrella and I don’t recall Phillips playing poorly in his limited minutes.

It was always believed that Estrella was more developed, but he was set back early on due to an injury, which allowed Phillips to get more action. I'd guess that since then, Estrella has gotten caught back up and assumed the role most people figured he'd play.

 

[Stoked]

If Cade and JP stick around all 4 years together that 4/5 position is going to be lethal!

 

[The Dog]

Estrella has a more skilled game than Phillips. Phillips is more athletic and plays extremely hard. Both have a bright future, imo

Fake news.

Yeah, Aidoo is out. Out of his mind on the court

 

[Creeker]

Credit to OP. He clearly knew Beard uses the opponents message board to scout and didn’t plan for Aidoo tonight. Plan worked beautifully.

Welcome to the board, Justin Gainey

Pseudo-Aidoo had himself a game!

Thanks. I think we will go 0 for the rest of the way

 

[pimo1]

He needs to be out like this more often

Aidoo showed out in this game for sure with 24 points and 10 caroms.
