Last night was first I’ve gotten to watch this year, and PJ looked like a shell of himself, struggling to get up and down the floor or to move down low, seemed to be limping. Maybe it’s just a conditioning issue, but I worry his leg isn’t ready . . .
Went and checked his minutes thus far and after the first game in which he didn’t play, they go 22, 21, 19, 13, 13. Kinda seems like that would be going the other way, that you’d be trying to build up rather than gradually decrease minutes.
Brad looks a little larger and a little angrier on the sideline. Regardless of how you feel about him, I’d say it’s a fair statement that he’s on the hot seat given fan sentiment, middling results and the new AD feeling he had to address fans about the program’s commitment to winning. All these things in mind and seeing Brad’s exasperation in the closing minutes last night, I couldn’t help but wonder: is he running this kid out there too soon, because he’s desperate to save his skin? Is he treating him like a meal ticket?
Side note chase hunter looked great. Props to him. Galloway woulda hit that three ball towards the end if he’d been playing against us. Weird seeing him in a Clemson uniform.
