You can cancel all the dumb rumors and innuendos.

"Memphis executive associate athletic director Adam Walker told The Commercial Appeal two Memphis players tested positive for COVID-19. Due to contact tracing, the rest of the team was ruled out due to protocols, Walker said. A source said an unspecified player woke up Saturday not feeling well and subsequently tested positive. The player's roommate was tested and he was positive. "

If you want to beat UC, just throw a zone at them. This team settles too much

Because the entire team was already exposed to those two by traveling and practicing together, all Memphis players were ruled ineligible.

And the "party" referenced on social media was nothing but the incoming president and some Memphis boosters making a short appearance at the basketball team dinner last night. That would not have made anybody sick this morning.

And per a team manager who was there, all players made bed check at 10:30.

The dude that woke up sick probably was asymptomatic for several days, so the infection likely happened at some point before this weekend.

Echo in the room? j/k

We quoted the same article. I just paraphrased the Walker part, and quoted the Barnes part. You quoted the Walker part.

So much for that lead. We can’t hit a basket if it was twice the size. Worst shooting team I have ever seen. Maybe a Covid stoppage isn’t a bad idea.

UNT is playing at Wichita State at 3. You American fans will get to see first hand what UNT basketball will be bringing to the conference. Hope we have an exciting game today.

Memphis BLUFFED

Update in the article on the Memphis-UT cancellation:

"According to one source, the two players who tested positive traveled back to Memphis separate from the rest of the team. While it's unclear which players tested positive, The Commercial Appeal was able to confirm that star freshmen Emoni Bates and Jalen Duren and veteran DeAndre Williams were not among them.

Memphis has unvaccinated players on its roster, a source confirmed, though it's not clear how many."

Temple-Drexel postponed due to covid.

What's the point of this last sentence? Literally everyone in the known universe (and probably in the unknown parts as well) knows you can be vaccinated and STILL contract and spread this virus.

So really, what tidbit of information did the author of this article think he was presenting?

UCF vs Florida state is a also cancelled

Memphis will get a semi-pass for this one but I will keep a close eye on them. A very close eye. If I see it again they may have to change their mascot from a tiger to a duck.

Good crowd in Wichita.

Mean Green got sloppy for awhile there and Shockers took advantage.

Still in striking distance. If the Mean Green clean up their ball handling, we could steal this one on the road.

North Texas is a solid team. Very solid. We’ll be lucky to squeeze this one out. If it wasn’t for our defense turning it up to about a 9 to end the half, we’d be in trouble.

hope porter just has a sprained ankle and nothing major

Porter laying on the ground for two possessions and the refs dont stop play and ignore HCIB trying to call a timeout

Yeah, that was poorly handled. Hope Porter is alright, but that was a nasty landing.

Etienne has be a net negative this year
