2 of the 3 is probably all we need tonight. Would love to have the 3rd back for Marquette and our entire team ready to go for Cincy.

Probably? We probably don't need any of them back. It's Arkansas State, not Arkansas. I realize they are far better than Jackson State, but we are the #11 team in the country. I just can't pretend we were somehow not favored to win this game even if all 4 were still out.

Getting 2 of 3 back ought to mean we win by 30+.

How is the BIG+ streaming doing these days? Worth signing up for?

Seems like I remember people having video quality issues in the past

I have an Apple 4k TV device I loaded the app on to play B1+ and the video quality was pretty good, not awesome, but something I was happy with.

With all 4 out, I could see the game being within 10-15. Not just because 4 of our top 6-7 players are out, but also because our top 3 ball handlers would be out.

With 2 back tonight, I see it being more like a 20+ win.

But as we’ve seen already, it’s college basketball and anything can happen.

With a full roster, this is the #11 team in the country. Without Kofi coming back, this is a borderline top 25 team. Without Kofi and Frazier coming back, this is a bottom half Big Ten finisher and without all three it's a bottom 4 Big Ten finisher. These are big time, All Conference/All American (Kofi and Curbelo) caliber guys that we're talking about.

All that said, I trust a couple of our insiders here when they say that help in on the way, so hopefully this is all moot.
