Condon and Golden will make the right call, just like they did when Clayton sprained his ankle. If we get to a double digit lead this evening, rest him. If it’s a slugfest, we might have to use him. I’m hoping Micah, and Tommy can dominate and let Condon heal a little more. Just my 2-cents.
Sounds like we also have a bit of an update on Sam Alexis. "A little further behind" than Condon sounds like it ended up not being that bad, and not the dreaded 8 weeks+ high ankle variety.
I say hold him out until Georgia. That game could be a make it or break it game for Mike White after their loss coming up at Auburn today.
Can't take any SEC team for granted, especially on their home floor. Micah is still getting back into game shape, but he, Haugh & Reuben have to realize that foul trouble will hurt the frontcourt depth without Condon & Alexis. The team needs to stay focused and not take LSU for granted. Limit turnovers, move the ball and make open shots. As the Beatles used to say, "We can work it out!"
Condon was sure jumping around during the Oklahoma game. If that’s any indication, he should be good to go.
If there is any question, give him one more game off. I agree that no SEC game is a gimme, so my opinion does not center around that false concept. If we take this game seriously, and I think that we will, we can win Saturday without him. Yes, that ups the odds for an upset, but playing the odds in a more general sense, in my opinion, if he is not quite 100%, we are more likely to be in an advantageous position come tournament time if we rest him for one more game. I always want to win, and I think we can win today without Condon, but regardless, the tournaments are the most important thing by far, so we need to make sure that we are at our peak condition at that time.
Good to see Condon dressed in a uniform for the LSU game last night. That silently states he’s ready to go.
