I read that he left favoring his hamstring. Did he ever come back? If not, any word from the staff?

I'm not sure exactly what happened but looked to me like he was okay, he just didn't come back in. The coaches didn't seem overly concerned.

He went straight to the locker room. Came back out and sat on the end of the bench for a few minutes, and then limped back to the locker room again. So it was more than a shot to the jewels. But hopefully nothing serious. Nobody looked too upset as noted.

I think he was Just back in the tunnel, not in the locker room. But I wasn't watching him the whole time.

Maybe so. I was right behind the Aggie bench so I couldn't see where he disappeared to. But he was definitely hobbling pretty bad.

Presumably ankle sprain. Starks also tweaked his ankle in Costa Rica and missed the last game there. Perhaps his aggressive playing style driving to the rim makes him particularly more prone to injuries. He has seemed to often get beat up thus far in his college career.

Nebo per Buzz on radio show Monday pulled a hamstring during a sprint first day of boot camp. That is the deal with him. Hamstrings can take awhile to fully heal cause you don't want to re-pull it.

Yes. Pulled my hamstring running. I didn't feel right for 4-5 months.

Oof.

Fork

12 days would have him back roughly around the time we play Gonzaga

24 days is the week before the Texas game in Ft Worth

Damn.

I'm obviously excited about Buzz era starting, but the injury issues that so often seem to bite my favorite team in the ass...dangn't. Right now we got Nebo out with a hammy and Starks (and maybe McNeilly who didn't play in the exhibition game) walking around in boots.

That is tough news.

Can't we just do the surgery that Bama does on their football players for sprained ankles? Just kidding (kind of). Hopefully he is back to 100% sooner than later.

So this one is moving in the wrong direction.

Greaaaat...

Not surprising. Changing coaches isn't going to change whether he's going to follow the rules.

At least Starks will be good and healed up when back!

So what are the thoughts?

Lateness?
Locker room discord?
Insubordination?
Weed/Booze?

"Indefinitely" is pretty stout language. Has to be something major. Or, maybe Buzz is trying to make an example?

Well ****

Kid better get inline.

or said "indefinitely" to tell the media as little as possible and to allow Starks to come back asap once he makes it right.

TJ has got to understand that the sh*t that he may gotten away with before, will not work against Buzz.

According to Brazos County jail records, Starks was arrested Thursday for alleged possession of marijuana of fewer than two ounces. He was released on a $2,000 bond. No other information was immediately available.
