One thing I forgot to mention in my earlier post…

I spoke with John Calipari earlier tonight, and he told me that point guard C.J. Henry has a broken foot and will be out six or seven weeks. I don’t have any further details on the injury at the moment, though I will try to get some tomorrow. Henry has been hurt pretty much since he’s been on campus, which is a tough-luck situation for him since he really needed the preseason to get in basketball shape and get his legs back under him after three years out of the game pursuing a baseball career.

If all goes well with his rehab, he could start to practice again some time around the Puerto Rico tournament the week before Thanksgiving. After that, the Tigers only play a couple times the first two weeks of December - against Marist on Dec. 2 and Dec. 13 against Georgetown. Those games would seem to be reasonable targets for when to expect Henry back in the lineup.

Dan: Have you been able to determine whether or not C.J. has the ability to be a major contributor or even a starter? What about Jeff Robinson? Due to the lack of inside depth I can see Jeff playing some at the power forward with either Taggart or Dozier in the middle. Thank you for the updates.
