"We had him get an MRI and we'll find out. ...he got jumped on and ran over after the Toledo game. That injured it and I really don't know right now. We don't know exactly that he is going to be out, we don't know exactly that he is going to be in."
"Here is a kid that works so hard to do things and you hope that he is okay and you hope everything will work out basketball wise for him."
"What we have done with him through this year was not to put him in a bad situation. ...When I have a bad feeling, literally he could be going great in practice, I have a bad feeling, I say Fitch your out and he looks at me like what are you doing? I have a bad feeling, get out. So I just don't know. I have a bad feeling right now and I've had it since he got carried off after the Toledo game. We thought he was okay, he was fine. He had some black and blue down the hamstring and that went away. So when he did it in the first play of the game (Ohio) it wasn't a re-injury. What it was, was whatever had happened after the Toledo game..."
on the ESPN Bracket Buster game with Arkansas-Little Rock...
"You don't have any control over it. Personally, I don't look at it that we accomplished anything (getting on TV) with it. I think it is something that really helps the MAC with scheduling and exposure, but I guess you could look at it like you accomplished something by getting a TV game. I'm certainly glad we have a TV game but I hope whoever the heck comes to the TV game is smart enough not to jump on Josh who has had two surgeries. ...If we win we win but I think anytime that this environment is exposed to a national TV audience, it is great."
The Blade said today that Fitch is out of tonights game. According to this, sounds like it will be more than tonights game. Dakich said we cant jump on Josh at the Bracket Buster game. So does that mean we get to jump on him tonight?!>!>!>!!
