I guess we failed to induce a marquee opponent to come to Champaign.

So I am a glass half empty person most of the time. Trying to change that up.
My glass half full take is that if he misses a more significant length of time, Brad gets to play some freshman that otherwise would not have hardly sniffed the court and they get game experience and maybe end up turning out to be impactful come March.

Well this sucks. The one guy with size to match up with guys that can bang in the post at the 4. It was of little concern to many and now its a major one until he heals up. Jason may be in the rotation now to try and defend those larger guys while Mirk heals. Get well fast Mirk.
Vaaks could spend some time defending the four. Biggest rotation player after Tomi and Z. Not worried about offense but Need Mirk’s rebounding.
