I believe they said slightly worse than grade 1. If that’s accurate I’d say another 1-2 weeks. Without any contact I’d say maybe even tomo night but with screens, etc, it’s too risky (unless he supports the shoulder somehow)....
My thoughts as well Timo. I think we see him Saturday vs GTim not sure why I’d rush him back vs Pitt, although every game is tough in the ACC. I’m going to say they hold him out again.
I think we should let him heal, and being him back against St. John's so that way he and the team have two home games to get back into too form before our rematch with UVA.Keep him out. Offensively, the adjustments weren't major and it forces Zion and RJ to be a little more disciplined and attack at the right time, after the D has been forced to shift. I like that emphasis and it can and should be easily maintained once Tre is back. We also need to develop OConnell a bit more. We will need him going forward.
Let him rest against Pitt and GT, pick five guys on this board and we should be able to keep up with GT, they are horrible.
Agreed. If he’s 100% ready to play, by definition he’s not being rushed back.If he's ready then play him, if not...don't. I'm sure the people that decide and know all the facts (Tre, K, & doctors) will make the best decision for all concerned.
Now as to Pitt, that is no gimme...not on the road.

It is a marathon not a sprint hope he is held out for at least one more full weekI believe they said slightly worse than grade 1. If that’s accurate I’d say another 1-2 weeks.

I don't think Tre will dress until he is ready to start and play his full complement of minutes. I don't see a situation where he is not healthy enough to start but K calls his number off the bench due to foul trouble, injury, score, etc. Coaching staff is looking long towards MarchArticle on our front page said that Tre was a game day decision against UVA and was day to day Thursday of last week. Think Tre dresses against Pitt but only plays if needed, and definitely plays some minutes against GT at home in preparation for @ND and ST Johns at home.

If they think his shoulder will be healed in 1-3 weeks then I think they should hold him out until at least the Georgia Tech game because that’ll be 12 days since he got hurt then see if it’s healed and if it’s not then hold him out until the Notre Dame game because that will be exactly 2 weeks since his injury. Those 3 games are all games that we should be able to win without Tre because all 3 of those teams are in the bottom half of the ACC and they all have at least 5 losses. Even if we were to lose 1 of those games, it’s better to lose a game than to risk Tre’s injury getting worse by playing him too soon.
That’s the way I look at it. We almost beat Syracuse without Tre and Cam, so with Cam back in the lineup we should be able to beat the teams we play over the next week or so even without Tre and even if we lose a game it’s not really that big of a deal because in the long run it’s better to have everyone healthy and ready for March and April.We should be able to beat both without Tre. If we dont then it's gonna just be one of thone nights when nothing is falling for us and everything is falling for them just like Syracuse and we still almost beat them without Tre and Cam. If Cam had played we would have won anyway. OFC
My shoulders are always bothering me due getting older (specifically my left shoulder) so I don’t even want to imagine the level of pain from a separated shoulder.I’m judging from some of the guys saying he’ll play tomorrow that you’ve never separated a shoulder before lol

It sucks. Even though it “heals”, it hurts for quite a while on contact and never gets back to original stability.
