Wake Forest's Tyree Appelby Questionable for Saturday
- Thread starter Knight Shift
- Start date
OK Until we get this offense working, we need all the help we can get!
I’ll take it. He should rest up and lead them on a nice run starting with their game on Tuesday vs Duke.
Smart move for him. Sit out and don't let a trip to the RAC kill your scoring averaging and shooting percentages
Wake Forest is 8-3. Among its victories is a win at Wisconsin...

The point about the RAC and our D stands... He wouldn't hit his average against us (hope that doesn't jinx us).. our performance vs SHU could certainly throw us into a funk... I certainly hope I am dead wrong.. and the D remaining tough the whole game should indicate they can come back as D can ALWAYS show up even if the offense does not.
Come to think of it.. Temple was as similar situation. We were the better team.. but we lost. Largely due to odd and possibly selfish play on O.. and the next games we got better. Same for losing to Miami and coming back to handle Indiana fairly well.
Let's see that rebound game. Its a long season and that would be the way to get things going.
The guy was carried off the court last night. I would be shocked if he played.
Well knowing us some guy for them thats averaging 6 PPG would randomly go off for 20.
Wasn’t that long ago we couldn’t beat a Minnesota team that was missing most of its scorers. I hope our offense has recovered from the SH debacle.
We cannot afford another lapse. We have 21 regular season games left and need to win 14 to have a good shot at dancing. That would give us 20 wins. If we fall short by 1 or 2, we will need at least 2 wins in BIG tournament.
So are the next two games against Bucknell and Coppin State to close out 2022.
But, it's the rule - any star player of an RU Opponent designated as "questionable" before a our game always plays - and plays well - against RU. 😉
Backs against the wall. This is when RU shows up. Let’s hope this team does it again on Saturday
That's mostly a rule that applies to QB's in football I think.
I fear the Bucknell game more because of the date and sleepy half empty arena
They play Wednesday at Richmond at 7pm then a quick turn around to Piscataway at 5pm Friday
Wake site saying their star may be held out so he will be fully recovered to start the ACC early the following week.When Geo had a sprain he sat for 7-10 days same with Ron. The Wake kid sprained it the first time two days before the last game and their staff shot him up and let him play. He was lucky he didnt break it. Maybe they should take the kid to a physician instead of a trainer if they want him for the rest of the season. Appleby is averaging 19 a game and went off for 32 against Wisky.
Sounds entirely speculative, based on the incorrect premise that ACC games are more important than a game against us. They are not.
Sprains vary and even what looked real bad initially can be ok in 2 days. Or 2 weeks, or a month. Assume the kid is playing.
Cliff needs to step up. Should be averaging 18 this year. And Caleb should become our go to guy at the end
Very close to a must win unless we finish around top 3 or 4 in the B1G. It’s our last chance for an OOC win against a team with a pulse. 0-4 would not look good regardless of the B1G wins we might get.
That’s what happens when your OOC is soft as baby s-it compared to your peers.
It’s a good think our schedule was soft. If we played UMass Lowell 3 more times on a neutral floor without Caleb and Paul we might’ve gone 2-1 or 1-2. Neither outcome, in this case, would be better than beating the snot out of CC. We can’t afford to add to the loss count period.
Cliff needs to stop taking himself out of the game by committing first half fouls 30, 40 and 85 feet from the basket
He's doing his Myles impression. The strange thing is he was sooo good at staying out of foul trouble last year too. He has regressed in that area. If he's going to pick up early fouls they should be protecting the rim or attacking the rim not hedging on screens above the 3 point line and reaching in in the backcourt
Besides the season finale against Penn State, there isn’t another game that jumps out at me from last season where he was in early foul trouble
I said the same thing. The board is very lucky to have access to our insights and observations.😁
