Keita?

[big red22]

I'm just curious on what is going on with him?  His height could help a little to give Mast a break as another Big out there.  

[TourneyBound]

Was hoping someone would of asked him today in presser about how he’s coming but it wasn’t asked

[AuroranHusker]

Need Blaise as another B1G dude to compete against Zach Edey, that's true.

Last word was that he was getting closer.  Not sure what that means.  Gotta wonder what sort of shape he will be in as well.  He has been away from the game for 13 months.

I think that was also non-contact work... so I don't know if he's even done contact stuff.

They were looking to ramp him up per the Indiana presser so this seems like a January 16th question

The quote I read was Coach was hopeful to get Blaise back at some point this season.  What in the Sam heck did he do to his ankles??? 13 months??

[Handy Johnson]

This is pure speculation on my part, but I’m guessing we don’t see him until next season. But I hope I’m wrong…

You're more optimistic than me. Also pure speculation, but I don't think we see that dude play in a Husker uniform again.

I agree with you.  I sometimes forget we even have him on the roster to be honest.

That wouldn’t surprise me either, then you remember Wisconsin here a year ago when he Dominated for about an 8 minute stretch & you want him back.

I’m all for sticking with a guy, but at some point there have to be some honest conversations that may be tough to have. Not sure when that is. He must’ve completely shattered his ankles

I agree with this for sure, but mostly for Blaise’s sake, rather than the team. 
I don’t have any concern of him “taking up a scholarship”. That was a much bigger deal when transfers were sitting out, but nowadays it’s extremely hard to keep 12-14 guys happy enough to stay around for another year.

 

I would much rather take the chances that Blaise makes a comeback than I would on the last scholarship guy on the bench hanging around without transferring in this day and age.
