Mr. Smith,

The guy's name with the injured shoulder is Arnold Dahi. I've been told that he is expected start and play for ODU on Friday Night.

However, I will be going to ODU'S practice tomorrow in Norfolk, so I should be able to tell what condition he is in AFTER I SEE for MYSELF...

The Coach stated earlier that it was only a "partial separation."

Sounds similar to being partially pregnant to me, lol...

I will be happy to share this with you then...

thank you. from your posts, sounds like he is an integral part of the team. And he will be very neccesary to have inside to bang around with the big 10 big boys.

Gotta keep them honest inside and on the boards to beat them

Go ODU :103631605 :toast:

Mr. Smith,

Many others might say that ODU is a very deep team and they have another Forward (Vasylius), who usually divides a lot of playing time with Dahi.

But personally, for this game in particular, I believe that ODU needs Dahi to be effective in order to have any chance of WINNING this game, and for many others, covering the spread...

Shrink,

I went to a small school in Alabama for a year in 1989. About 2 miles from our campus was South Alabama.

They got into the tourney on the strength of two very good senior guards. In the opening round, they knocked off Alabama in a huge upset on a buzzer beater 3 pointer ( were down by 2 before the shot) after the ball got loose near the baseline and was kicked out to an open player who released just before the buzzer.

They still show this shot routinely on TV when they want to show big upsets and march madness type crazy buzzer beater endings. And they show the South Alabama coach going berserk running onto the court after the shot.

In the next round, I was routing hard for S. Alabama. They faced Michigan. They fought them tooth and nail for 40 minutes, though they had almost no inside presence and were facing a dominant power conference team with big guys to spare. S. Alabama had a good ( but very undersized 6"9 or so center) and nothing else inside. He fought like hell inside on offense and defense but had no help.

Michigan had Terry Mills and Glen Rice and a couple other NBA players I forget. Michigan won by 9 91-82 after pulling away very, very late, it was close the whole way. This was in the second round, Michigan went on to win the whole thing.

I know what its like to route for the little guy. Having Dahi in there to help inside is vital against Michigan State.
