Hinkle Heat Check Season Preview

Good discussion, can't wait for Wednesday to get a more meaningful look at this team and the rotations.

Minor feedback, there is some sort of feedback or interference coming from Lukas. It sounds sort of like scratching.

Also, will you be discussing the recruiting class in a future episode? Last episode you punted it due to a possibly imminent signing. Just curious.

 

Shout out baby! Leggggooooooo. Thanks for the yo.

 

I really am just jonesing for a real game. Cannot wait til wednesday night.

 

Yeah, I think that's because we didn't record together for this episode like we normally do. If we do more recording separately like this one, I'm going to make an adjustment to my mic set-up haha. It is on our agenda to discuss the recruiting class at some point - didn't feel like it fit in this one. It will definitely be a focal point of a pod.

 

Cool, thanks. You are both doing a great job with the pod. Keep it up.

 

Cautiously optimistic is how I feel also after hearing the exhibition, but we have a tough schedule so we need to be ready in a short amount of games! Good discussion!

 

Is JMM redshirting or will we wait 8gms to find out?

 

Love the podcast. Can't get enough of Butler basketball. So pumped for Wednesday and this season to get rolling.

 

This seems to be an ongoing discussion. Woods has asked Coach about it at every media session so far. No official word yet. Pure speculation on my part with this, but I think he redshirts still.

I would always wait until the decision deadline on this issue.

 

There is no real decision deadline, it's if he plays a minute he burns it, so you sit there hoping to RS and then if an injury or multiple injuries happens you have to burn the RS eligibility. You can discuss with him and his family the intention to RS but unlike other areas there is nothing to file here or deadline to make a decision.

 

I like the way football does it where you can get a sense of a player (4 games) and still red shirt if needed. I'd love to take a temperature here because I really don't know what we have. If he could sniff some minutes early to see what's what but if he gets any run...no red shirt.

Saying that, with the class we have coming, I'm not sure a red shirt makes sense. I was all aboard earlier in the year, but now burning a year doesn't bother me. Let the kid get some run and let's see how he does.

 

The rule change that allowed playing time this year for football before a redshirt is likely coming to other sports - including basketball - next year. IIRC, the NCAA wanted to see how it worked in football before implementing it across the board. Can't imagine anything but positive feedback even if there needs to be some tweaking.

Maybe what happened in Houston gives them pause, but I doubt it.

 

NCAA doesn’t give two poops about Houston football. The football rule is perfect.

 

I can confirm he won’t be redshirting

If the NCAA had any common sense whatsoever they would still grant JMM a redshirt even after him playing tonight. It was extreme circumstances. But we all know the NCAA has no common sense

Jared and I are recording the next Hinkle Heat Check episode in ~3 hours. We are also launching a Q&A segment to cover more items that you want to hear about.

Send over any of your questions to be included in this pod!
