Has a reporter asked BU why he stopped running the spread offense? I think we ran it twice against MSU. I understand the defensive switch. But offensively I was excited to see how the spread could work with a better and deeper team.
The improvement defensively is very exciting, but I was expecting a lot more creativity on offense in year 3.
Heck, Michigan's whole team was in a plane crash that one year and they still came out in their practice unis and smoked us. Motivation is a strange, strange thing.
Speculation of 1 - 2 weeks, but no one knows exactly what the injury is or how he will respond to treatment. One would think the staff will err on the side of caution.Any idea when Ayo will be back? If it's for any real time, you gotta hope this will be like when Deron broke his jaw. Made him a better player (which part was due to the forced weight loss with him), but also made the team better.
May be a good time for Trent, Giorgi and Kofi to really come on strong and for Tevian to find consistent playing time and get going for the final run at the end of the season.
There are about 30 minutes per game to divvy up here and Tevian is going to get a bunch. Referencing Lake Placid, "great moments are borne from great opportunity". This could be an extended chance for serious minutes. Not that we need a true 4 or anything.Any idea when Ayo will be back?

Very, very, very tall order.Illini, have to find a way to win 1 out of the next 2. Not an easy task. But going into final 5 games 9-6 rather than 8-7 would be huge.
I think the keys are 1) GB gets back to 2019 form, 2) Trent steps up and knocks down threes, 3) AF steps up the leadership. Plus tough defense and stay out of foul trouble. PS: Kofi is worn out. I doubt that we will see much extra from him the rest of this year.I really think you will see a new GB playing Sat. Will Feliz get the start at the 2 guard or will AG and bring AF off the bench for Trent? Whatever I am sure that BU and staff have it figured out.
Is the consensus that Ayo will likely miss 2-3 games?
Nothing has been officially stated, just pure speculation on everyone's part at this juncture.

We’re more than capable of beating RU in Piscataway without Ayo. Period. Obviously, it will take either our D throwing them off their rhythm enough to win or our offense being on fire. The first is much more likely and what we need to bank on. Let’s win this one for Ayo, boys!!
Agreed, if teams can beat us at home, we should be able to end Rutgers 16 game home winning streak
And I'm sure they all stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night so...But we have a tremendous amount of Doctors and Physical Therapists on here.
