PMac Injury Update?
- Thread starter longliveCS40
- Start date
He was healthy enough to tweet....would he have make a difference? Who knows, like his length, some aspects of his offense but he's still not strong enough to play many minutes and rebound with any authority. Hope he can get back to help the Hawks advance to the 2nd week.
He's been playing really well lately and Connor didn't have a great game. You give PMac those minutes and I think it makes a big difference.
The way Rebraca was following shots flying off the backboard, we couldve got a few more buckets with PMac awkwardly chucking floaters.
Definitely could have used Pmac. I had hoped Connor was going to continue to look to get a few shots up given he has been scorching the nets, from 3, but not the case. Dude cannot keep staring down open mid-range shots when the d is shading everyone but him. He had multiple opportunities last night and took zero shots.
Illinois is just a bad matchup for Connor and Jordan. Patrick may have made a difference but get healthy and see what happens this week and next.
And nobody in black and gold matched up well with that officiating…..but make your free throws!!!!

Could be that the McCaffery's are simply prone to hip issues. Did Connor have one or both worked on?
I thought Patrick’s injury came as a result of hitting the floor hard? Not some sort of genetic predisposition to hip injuries.
From Yesterday, March 8:
Q. What’s Patrick’s status going into this week?
FRAN MCCAFFERY: He’s going to try to go today a little bit, get up, because he hasn’t really run much. He’s been sick, and then of course with his hip. At least without playing, maybe it’s helped his hip. We’ll see how that goes. So we’ll see what he can get done today.

Fran McCaffery News Conference Transcript
I don't think he took any hard falls against Michigan and he played 18 minutes in that game. He did take an awkward step and slipped to the floor heading towards the basket in the second half but it didn't appear as though he suffered any ill effects immediately afterwards. Maybe in a prior game?The only reason I mentioned a genetic angle was because of Connor's history.
Patrick did not play in the home game vs Northwestern either. Maybe something in the home Michigan State game?
He lost his balance when he got bumped while up in the air in the Neb game. He came down hard right on his hip.
Yeah it was a prior game. I’m trying to pin it down on my mind when and where but, at my age, that’s nearly impossible 😀
I wonder if he picked it up from NW's Boo Buie, who was sick, then started against us, played 6 minutes, then went out the rest of the game, puking his guts out...
As hot as he's been from 3, I don't want him taking contested outside jumpers unless absolutely necessary. I thought he used the correct amount of discretion. He simply wasn't ever wide open against Illinois.
Don't live in Iowa, but it sounds like there is a nasty flu going around. Patrick had flu that weakened him and Pryce Sandfort was sick all week and lost 7 pounds and then lost the tourney game. Anyone in the area know what is happening?
Sorry, didn't catch they we were talking about someone whose not on the team......
