Xavier Johnson injury

[RUtrumpet92]

Xavier Johnson, this board's "favorite" non-Rutgers basketball player, had foot surgery yesterday and will be out a long stretch. Indiana hopes he can return this season. Someone on the Indiana board said maybe February. I didn't want to see him injured, but if he is still out when we play at Indiana on February 7, that'd be a boost for our chances of winning there again.

Big loss for them. He’s a bad shooter, but he runs their offense.

He won’t be ready in 6 weeks and he will be needed for an NCAA run

Even if he played, we own them

Big loss for them... who else do they have that instigates conflict, fakes fouls, and dupes refs as well as he does?

I think that if they lose to us again they will want a league vote to kick us out

Might be a net positive.

He brings an edge that the rest of the team doesn't have. They'll miss him for sure

Indiana just got softer

Remember when Paul punched him in the face? Good times

Hood-Schavino runs the point well for them. This will only be a depth issue.

Early returns not promising

While it would be hilarious if Indiana lost to Kennesaw St, it would not be good for us. Hopefully they figure it out.

27-27 approaching halftime.

KSU is the closest school to my house so I have definite mixed feelings about the possible upset. It would hurt the B1G's reputation for sure but would be cool for the local squad.
