Solomon Young out a month with broken left hand

[Clonehomer]

Seriously what am I missing here? Did anyone think that Young was going to play more than 3 minutes a game in conference?

With the rate that Holden and Bowie are fouling, absolutely. Against Big12 competition, I don't see Holden playing more than 15-20 minutes.

How many freshman bigs have we really had that weren't projects and were off the bench in early rotations.

You saying Young is equal to Railey? Gibson? GT? Carter? How are those guys on Young's level? Do tell.

Solomon Young looks better than pretty much any freshman big in recent memory. Who were you thinking of?

Seriously? Not sure if you are joking or not..Young is going to play prob 7-8 minutes a game..at the very least. Prob more like 10-15 in conference play. He's only going to get better and he's playing behind (2) 5th yr seniors..Young is a beast and he actually plays better defense than Holden not to mention Young is a better scorer on the block.

Dude you are clueless..Young upside is huge..not to mention he's huge. Kid will play alot. He's a freshman who is built like a 5th year DE and actually can score around rim and play decent defense..

 

[CycloneErik]

How did he break his hand?

The story I'm making up involves Simeon Carter hiring Jeff Gillooly.....

 

[Sigmapolis]

Ejim and Niang started as true freshmen.

 

[CyArob]

I bet Young tried to steal Burton's lunch.

Pretty sure those guys were 3 star recruits too. I don't know what level you think Young is on right now after a few minutes vs sub-300 rpi opposition. I like Young better than those other names too but this isn't the MVC he just wouldn't play much in conference it's not a put down that's just how it goes unless you're Georges Niang.

Every year it's "why can't whatever freshman come in for a few minutes?"threads after losses.

Dude, you're on the wrong side of this one. Young isn't going to save our team, but we need him - This year. Holden can't stay on the floor and Bowie & Burton are undersized.

So yes, it sucks that he's out for a month.

This shouldn't be so hard to understand.

 

[cayin]

was it late in the game that he got hurt? Sucks that we lose a guy in a game that was long decided.

I don't know who is even arguing that point. Besides you.

5:20 left in the game, up 114-50. He hurt it on this alley oop attempt. Managed to score afterwards too.

Way to Scooby Doo that one.

Tough luck, hopefully he heals up and the hand is 100% going into B12 season. As other have said I think he was set to see some meaningful minutes for us, his body and game looks ready to me.
