So now we have an unspecified date by which he will probably return to practice?

This is ridiculous.  Until I see him in a jersey, I'm just going to assume he's not playing the rest of the year.

Tomorrow night's game is an easy win without Caris. That puts us at 6-2 in the conference needing to go 4-6 in our next ten in order to almost guarantee a spot in the tourney. Anything after that is for seeding/ a B1G championship.

X>80% games:

vs. Penn State

@ Minnesota

vs. Northwestern

50%<X<80% games: 

vs. Indiana

vs. MSU

@ OSU

@ Wisconsin

30%<X<50% games:

vs. Purdue

vs. Iowa

<30% games:

@ Maryland

If things go our way and we get Caris back for the game against Indiana I see us having a realistic chance at 13-5 in the B1G. If Caris comes back and there are no issues with the team geling then you can move all of the games up a category in my opinion.

While we should win at Minnesota, I would not call it a greater than 80% likelihood. The Barn's one of the better homecourts in the league and Minny played us fairly tough at Crisler. I'm not sure about the trips to Columbus and Madison being greater than 50% either.

I would say the Minnesota game was more of us playing them into then them keeping it close. While they shot poorly, it is the usual for them. We shot poorly which is abnormal. If we play even avergage basketball we win that game. And OSU and Wiscy are more towards the 50% it all depends on how well the team plays with Caris back.

I know I am in the minority but I say we sneak him some minutes against Rutgers and Penn State if he is ready.

Team chemistry has been fabulous without him and I hate that adjustment to come against an Indiana squad that can light the scoreboard up.
