Smith Injury

Keep him out until he’s near 100%. Need him down the stretch this season for tourney. Be nice to get both Smith and Dunlap back for second half of season somewhere.
Anyone who wants the Smith back that played in the Seton Hall game is nuts. 🤷‍♂️
 
I think the posts were about how important he is to this team and the importance of getting him back ASAP. If there was any negativity it was directed at the staff for playing him against Seton Hall. None of it was directed at Smith. A warrior like him is always going to want to play. It’s ip to the staff to save the player from himself in a situation like that. But, absolutely no one is down on Smith.
Bingo, Gene.
 
Pitino estimated that his chances of playing Saturday against Providence are between 60 percent and 70 percent.

“He’s ready to play. He’s just psychologically afraid to get hit,” Pitino said. “He’s physically ready to play. We’ve erred on the side of caution.”
 
Smith or Glover? Which one was Pitino referring to in the post game has become a lengthy discussion.

This is good, because I was certain people here would twisting themselves into pretzels over Pitino glowingly start the discussion about how his Kentucky team was the only team to still pound opponents even after getting up by 30. This could only mean he is going back there and leave SJU flat footed.

Pitino once again playing 3-D chess, while the rest of us haven’t even set the checkerboard up yet.
 
Interesting comment from Pitino about smith. Said he can’t go to his left and is not a true pg.
Dr. J couldn’t go to his left either. Not comparing the two (you can’t) but just saying and throwing it out there.

Just weird that Pitino said he isn’t a pg, particularly since the kid is 6’0 and has aspirations to play in the league.

That’s exactly why I wonder if he wasn’t talking about frosh Glover notwithstanding the question.
