Ugh.... I have known about this since about Monday. He hurt his foot/toe in the Butler game last Saturday. At first it was believed that he would only have to be out for a few games, but now it does not look good. People in the know say it will be February at the earliest before he will be back. Some think he may not be back.... This really hurts us. With Irving we are by far the best team in the country IMO. Without him we get pulled back to the pack. We are still a top 5 team without him, but this hurts.

Here is ESPN's writeup about it: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=5900154


Personally, as long as he is back by NCAA tournament time I will be happy. We will be fine until then. This sucks though. We may go back to the slow down style we used last year to win the title now...
