Rumblings that he might not have made the trip to Morgantown.   Apparently his cousin passed away and the funeral is this weekend.  Prayers to him and his family.

He must have been the player with a dying family member that Tang mentioned and others have hinted about the last couple of weeks.

on tang's radio show last night he was talking about desi having a death in the family and it being like his 20 y/o cousin or something?  guess it was more recent than he made it sound

Damn that sucks, but being there for family is way more important.

Feels kinda morbid saying this, but I’m glad this didn’t happen til after senior day. He seemed like, more charged up than any of the other seniors and I’m glad he was able to have senior night without grieving

The whole game. Desi had more fun that game than I have seen before. Not played better, but more fun. I mean, he literally skipped back down part of the court after a fast break in the second half. The entire game he was either mean mugging the student section after a badass play or smiling his ass off. It was a pleasure to watch.

If this is true and Finister doesn't play today, then you have to think Tang is going to try and get a redshirt for him some way, especially after his recent praise of him as a future NBA player.

He's not eligible for a red shirt and didn't want one.

We'll see. Thinking they have to be angling for some kind of hardship RS. Hard to explain his complete lack of playing time otherwise.

It’s because he’s not good enough to play, this isn’t hard.

It's hard to figure out when he doesn't even see the floor in bench-clearing situations when the Manhattan Christian College guy plays and Tang is saying he has an NBA future.

There's no "we'll see" he's not injured. The Manhattan Christian College guy played because he's a 5th year senior, not an 18 year old freshman.

Also where are you getting the NBA quote from because I listened to press conference last week when Tang praised Dorian and I don't remember him saying the three letters NBA.

Again, we'll see. In the meantime, quit ripping off Finister's head and shitting down his throat.

Some dumbass said I crap on Quis for noting a game stat, so I figure hyperbole is fair play, right. Or are you a consistent hypocrite?

He's not talking to me, I haven't said a damn thing negative about Finister. I'm assuming he's whining because wetwillie said Finister isn't good enough to play right now.
