This is great news. Finally some good news for the program. Congratulations to the staff on getting this done.
Re: KAEO Brison Gresham (2016)
Based on our past history, no way did I expect him to clear. I hope Brison plays tonight. I'm excited to see how he looks, but have no expectations for his first game.
However, I had a vision! 15 minutes, 4 points, 4 rebounds, 2 blocks, 2 steals.

Re: KAEO Brison Gresham (2016)
The gazette piece said DK and Gresham won't speak publicly until after the game, so there's no way of knowing if he'll play until after, but is there any reason why he shouldn't? He's eligible and has practiced with the team all along. He should be in pretty good "basketball shape" from the practices and have some chemistry with his teammates.
Re: KAEO Brison Gresham (2016)
I sure hope he gets some burn tonight.
Re: KAEO Brison Gresham (2016)
It will be hard to imagine him not playing tonight, even if it is a cameo. Space played his first game back last year and I don't think he got anywhere nearly as much practice time prior than Gresham did this fall.

Yeah I used the wrong term then, because partial qualifier means practice but not play right? I think?minutefanjsf wrote:Cady, Putney?MJatUM wrote:Who was our last partial qualifier? Morgan?
I meant whoever the last guy we had that was actually cleared and able to play in the same season.

Hasn't happened in quite awhile, as far as I can remember.

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Do you mean Mike Johnson? Or were you kidding about the "true story" part?
