Why is the big white kid not playing?

[Dannymacfan]

Is he hurt? or is it grades or something.  Seems like he could have helped us last night.

Looks good on tape

He played against Wayland Baptist for 9 minutes late in the game and as I remember he had two quick fouls. Maybe you saw something that I didn't see, but it seemed to me he was a "Not Ready for Prime Time Player."

I wouldn't be surprised if he is redshirted. Hodge is probably looking to see if he has enough to work with for the year without having to burn his redshirt.

Maybe we can see him in against McNeese St next week.

I thought he looked confident in his minutes vs Wayland.  Very athletic, defended well, made a basket and two free throws.

Didn't he redshirt with Creighton last year?  He only played in an exhibition with them but no minutes in a season game.  

I think they transfer to get more playing time.  I doubt he wants to sit another year.  I'm afraid he'll be gone again.  6-10 and athletic needs more minutes with us!!

I thought he was a true freshman, I didn't know he was at Creighton last year. ESPN didn't list his previous stats so I assumed he was. If he can contribute it would be great to get him in rotating for Sissoko more.

He was rated very high out of high school for 2022-23....
