Gotta believe Harvard knew about Okolie before any other team did.

Cambridge had a rejection in that Providence game that was unreal.

Jon Rothstein confirmed Mason's absence from this weekend's games. No information on a return for next weekend.

While Yale fans are certainly not pleased with this, Baylor fans are starting to get a bit worried for next year.

I’ll be surprised if Mason plays again at Yale.

This is the first time that I’ve begun to feel that way too. Too many stops and starts here. The number of times the likely return date has moved back is concerning.
What is important is that I do not believe there is any appetite for a sixth year, so what doesn’t seem to be at play here is any attempt to save eligibility.

This presupposes that he is healthy and has a good year at Baylor. If he is injured or, well, out of sync there, he's out of mulligans.
A broken foot is precarious. Some in this league have tried to play after recovery only to quickly re-injure.
Of course, Mason's best option is to work himself back into playing share at Yale, help the Eli's make the tournament, and solidify his game going into next year.

Mike, I believe Brown was on him early, He was in P'ton's and Penn's backyard at the Hun School, they must have seen him. You could say the same of Anderson, Choh and Okolie. MM, and staff are pretty good recruiters, and getting better at picking there spots.
Um... yeah so I wish Penn had recruited Cambridge, lol.
Want to trade him for future first round draft picks and a player to be named later?!

In the weekly Mason watch, he is not listed on the roster in the Yale Game Notes for Columbia and Cornell.
http://www.yalebulldogs.com/sports/m-baskbl/2017- 1...
On Tuesday, a Yale Daily News article had some information about him.
https://yaledailynews.com/blog/2018/02/06/mens- bas...
- But this fall, as Yale fans know all too well, Mason suffered a setback and has yet to return to the court. Last Friday against Princeton, the guard was in shorts and peddling on the stationary bike during warm-ups but did not dress for the game.
Jones said that Mason was “getting closer,†and that “at some point, he’ll be on the court.†Although Mason has been doing the majority of his rehabilitation on his own, he recently has “started to blend into our practices,†Jones said.
An additional factor of uncertainty is Mason’s comfort as he resumes more regular basketball activities.
“It depends on how healthy he is,†Jones said. “Are you going to be nursing the foot, or is he 100 percent free to rock-and-roll? I have no idea. I’ll know that when he starts practicing every day and when he starts playing games … [But] if he’s healthy, and he can play to the level that he’s capable of, you’ll see him often and early.â€

Could Mason return this weekend?
His teammates have kept Yale in the race for the top 4 spots, but there are only 19 days and 6 games left.

FWIW, Mason missed Baylor's opening game against Texas Southern due to an ankle injury.
Baylor lost 72-69 to Texas Southern, which entered the game ranked #277 at KenPom.
