Bandon Neel and Steven Davis are out for the year due to injuries. Davis has not recovered from last year's foot injury and will no5 play this year. Neel has some type of leg fracture that will keep him out for the remainder of this year as well.

So we are only down 2 players presently. Davis will be back with 2 or 3 years of eligibility left? Let's hope we have the rest of them playing Sunday because the Falcons are better than Charleston Southern by a couple ticks.

Justin is the only regular who was out of action for Charleston Southern. Rod Davis didn't play and Parker played only a few minutes. I would expect that was because neither matched up well to the oppositions players. Someone earlier int his thread mentioned that he didn't understand a five guard lineup. I don't recall that we had five guards on the court at one time though we may have had four at one point. Charleston Southern is a good three point shooting team though we shut them down by playing small and guarding the perimeter,

He would have 1 year of eligibility remaining after this year unless he petitioned the NCAA for a 6th year.

He was a nonqualifier out of high school and had to sit out a year. His 4 years of eligibility in 5 years of school didn't start until his second year of school. He is still eligible for a redshirt year.

Mortensen also didn't play last game and has had very limited minutes for what many of us expected coming in to the season. I know he was injured the first few games, but he hasn't seen a lot of action at any point this season. Is that injury still bothering him or is he on the outs for other reasons?

Ouch. Probably something the coaches should have picked up on when he was being scouted. Good thing we didn't make him travel to another hemisphere or anything. ...oh yeah. Whoops.

gerb, this isn't directed at Daniel ( I'm glad he is here and look for good things in the future ) but, I promise you that players come into college thinking that they played hard on defense and that they played well to get to the next level. Almost all are wrong.

I do not believe Stephen Davis will be returning. He was not on the bench at Miami nor the last two home games. I saw him in street clothes in the stands Thursday night.

Did anyone see D. Mortensen at the game against Bowling Green? I didn't see him on the raider bench - not even in street clothes. Anyone have information on him?

It's possible to learn it at the radio show, I was told by a player that it was an illness ( stomach ).
