Demarion Burch out 2-3 weeks with foot injury

Ouch....! This season's success ultimately depends on health! Injuries are always part of a season, yet hopefully we can minimize the impacts to our season this year!!
 
Seeing this is the second practice related injury this season to a key player, I hereby request BU discontinue practicing effective immediately. Perhaps move to virtual.
 
Crap - The O-Show is going to be a big part of our success this season and next, but at least we have some guys to contribute in his sted.

Any idea who will fill his spot in the rotation? It will probably lead to more minutes for some of the starters.

We have no one to fill his spot, the other 8 players just need to step up and contribute a little more until he returns. We will miss him a lot because he contributes a lot more then most realize.

Totally agree - He played very well in Gm 1 and the guy hustles like made every time he takes the court. Love it!
 
He made the trip to South Carolina with the team, but he was still wearing a protective "boot" on his foot at the game last Saturday. Tomorrow will be 2 weeks since his injury was announced, and it was stated that Demarion will be out 2-3 weeks.
I don't know if he has been cleared to practice or play yet, nor do I know his status for tomorrow's game. But my guess is they will not want to rush him back too quickly, making it doubtful he'll play, IMO

Coach Wardle said in the postgame press conference tonight that "we get Demarion Burch back this week".
That suggests that his injury was a soft-tissue injury, possibly a sprain or contusion.
It will be great to have him back healthy.

This will be great to have the O-Show back! I think his defensive presence will help and scrapiness. He gives us energy off the bench. Probably our best 6th man if he stays healthy.

No doubt! To see how deep BW is going on the bench and how well we're playing and to think we're getting back a guy that was getting serious minutes and was probably our 6th man is huge! This team has more depth than any I can remember for at least the last 20 years.
 
Burch plays like a starter and with Johnson and Burch out on the floor together they can create a lot of havoc because of their aggressiveness. Hoping Burch plays Friday and is injury free the rest of the season.
