Get the ball in to Aririguzoh early. When the double comes, skip to Schwieger or Desrosier. Late in the clock, Aririguzoh must come out to the elbow or higher to open up the basket to drives by Stephens, Llewellyn, or Schwieger. Catch to shoot on the three point line; no pump fakes. Shoot or get rid of it.

Hmmm. Yale is a pretty good FT shooting team - the double bonus could kill us down the stretch. But they are pretty good three-point shooting team too, so my idea of deploying a series of junk zone defenses, switch from the 1-3-1, to a 1-2-2 matchup zone, box and one, and maybe even an amoeba might not be the best idea either. Ugly it up!

Henderson in his press conference in the past hour or so said Schweiger is out, per a tweet from the Inquirer’s Jon Tannenwald (known hereabouts as DCAJedi).

Oh well, dunno if Johns and Wright are up to it, but we gotta take concussions seriously.
Chip - are you sure he doesn't want the veneer of anonymity here?

Well, you just burst my little bubble of hope.

Since he just recently asked someone on this site to not violate his employer’s copyright—and his livelihood—by posting full articles here, it’s a pretty thin veneer.

Oh boy. No Schwieger is going to make this a lot more difficult. Does anybody know when/where he got concussed? This is a pretty long period out for a hoops player.
I agree that an ugly game favors the Tigers, but they will also need to find someone who can hit an outside shot and avoid live-ball turnovers to stay in this thing.

I don’t think there are different protocols for different sports—now that there are some widely accepted standards in the sports medicine community, either you’ve passed the concussion recovery tests or you haven’t.

Schwieger took an accidental elbow to the face during practice before the final weekend of the regular season. The Tigers were hoping he would be back for Ivy Madness, but it looks like he is not ready yet.

Ouch. Hope the kid who hit him isn't feeling too bad about it--that would be a tough one.

What a shame. I'm sure his teammate feels horrible about this. Rough year for the Tigers in many ways.

Welp, so much for that. I actually think we had a chance with Schweiger healthy. But now, I doubt we have enough offense to break 60. What a freak accident and a bizarre season.
Things looked so promising after that ASU win and Penn sweep. Then we lose Devin. And then Schweiger comes out of nowhere to replace his scoring...then he goes down.
I just hope the guys relax and leave it all out on the court. Lose by 30, lose by 3, it doesn't really matter. Yale might as well be Duke against the team we're fielding tomorrow.

He looked very groggy last Saturday night and had some difficulty moving around -- gingerly.

Sell out for defense, pray you shoot 12-25 on threes and try to win with 60 points? Hard to see another path to victory tomorrow...

He got killed by Reynolds last weekend, but he'll have to be part of the solution...

To have a chance, I think the three freshmen guards (Llewelyn, Wright, Johns) need to have big offensive games for the Tigers. They desperately need someone to hit some threes.
