Someone just posted a rumor on other board. Thread got locked up immediately. Do you mean about white? It would make a ton of sense to me as he’s likely not gonna play much in the future. Say what?

other hood has a post about white transferring...recruited as a PG...makes terrible decisions...can't guard a chair (thanks Calhoun)...old man says he should be playing more (allegedly)...MAL commits...Edwards reclasses...Duke commits...it ain't rocket science.
I hope he stays (if he can play nice and the 2) b/c I think PC needs guys for 4 years to sustain success and the kid's an athlete BUT with Duke/Reeves/Diallo/MAL able to play facing the basket, at least one of Edwards or White was going to bolt. We can't afford to lose any of the bigs but should be fine at 1-3.

I hope he opts to stay at least through season's end, since you can never tell what will happen in the future. BTW, hypothetically if he transferred now, would this be where one of those situations where he'd have 2-1/2 years of eligibility left?

I hope and believe this is not the case.
Still think White could have a role in this team as a shooter/scorer.

I believe he has a role also. He showed that he has the ability to score the ball last year at times and was one of the few guys on this team capable of creating his own shot. That changes in the future with some of the new recruits and MAL on board but I would think that Edwards is behind White IMO. White has a much higher ceiling. His defense and ball handling weren't the best but that can be coached out of him.

Based upon what I've read, it's sounded as though White is ready to take a step up this season. Here we are, two exhibitions in, and there's rumblings that he may be looking to move on?
The kid is going to have all of this season to continue to grow within the Program, and as a Junior next season - shouldn't be concerning himself with the prospect of losing playing time to incoming freshman. I'll be disappointed if this ends up being the case - as I have had White pegged as a fighter.

Okay. Unless White naysayers have been hiding somewhere, we all agree that he has a role, upside and we want him to stay.
And now we return to our original thread entitled: 'What's the Story with Lindsey?'

PC Friar health update: Lindsay (knee, MRI was negative); Edwards (back spasms). Doesn’t sound like either will play Saturday.

Wonder if Lindsey will be ready for start of season next week missing all this time on the court.

Wondering the same thing myself, friarman.
Jalen knows the system that Ed runs, but conditioning (at the very least) could be in question, if he's been sitting out for any extended period of time as a result of his knee.

My guess is the staff is aiming to get him ready for Minnesoter...

So he was suspended and then hurt his knee?

So he was suspended and then hurt his knee? That's what I'm making of this, but who knows?

Maybe he was never suspended. Just coach protecting his health rights.
