If he is completely healed, then he will not need a 😷.

Maybe, but the discussion is centered around playing/not playing for health concerns, not whether or not he wears a mask.

Wouldn’t if he has to wear a mask on his face during a game because of his injury be part of that discussion?

I hate to say it, but I would keep Ayo out until the Big Dance. For as often as he goes to the hole and for as much contact as he takes on these drives, it might take only one hit to the face these last two games and the B1G Tourney and one of the best players in U of I basketball history would never play in the NCAA tournament. That would be a shame.

Can't have his first game back be in a one and one scenario, nor can you have him sitting three weeks without live game action going into that pressure cooker. This group has never felt pressure like they're going to feel in that first game.

At worst he would play in BTT, can't be a 1 and done NCAA game.

So, honestly, as someone already mentioned...why has there been no punishment for Sosuckso?

I don't understand channels being a problem for on time game starts anymore, and I'm glad.

Oddly, this is the first game this year where I'm not nauseated before tip off. Knowing we're in the tournament, knowing that we're either going to get a 1 or 2 seed and knowing where we'll finish in the conference.....really makes things easier. Also, playing without our All American, knowing there's a good chance that we're going to get the stuffing kicked out of us(built in excuse)...also helps significantly.

Nothing to lose boys. Let's win this one for Ayo, and for Coach Underwood. Muck Fichigan.

I'm not too disappointed to watch the end of this game instead of the beginning of the Illini game.
