Hope his full recovery ain't like Egbunu, Gak, etc. What other trees-knees have we lost?

Did 6'9" Chase Johnson decide he'd have less concussed dizziness playing elsewhere? Could he not skip the 2019-2020 season, getting help from UF's superb brain clinic and come out better in 2020+?
Or was that leaving about White not valuing 'underneath' play/players such that White did not bother to communicate how UF could help him better to become better? When healthy, Chase contributed our highest FG%?

Fuuu.....I had a feeling when he was on the floor, reminded me of J-Ham. Dammit. I love baby-face Stone.

Good eye, TLB. Stone does have a babyface. And previously, Stone showed good shooter's touch, especially for being 6'9".

This team is snakebit as far as keeping big men healthy. Big blow to the team's chances of making it to the post season. Too bad.

Terrible news. We needed him. Perhaps Stokes will get more minutes?

Really tough injury for Stone and as with Egbunu at exactly the worst time of the season for being ready next year.

Terrible break for Stone.

And yet again, the White nut swingers have another injury excuse to use in defense of his incompetence.

Stokes would already be getting more minutes if he would get himself in shape. He appears to only be a shadow of his older brother who played for Tennessee.

It looked like purely tough luck to me.That was a real awkward landing, I was afraid of that. He hasn't been much of a consistent contributor this year until that game.

Poor S&C. It was the nemesis of Chump and Butters. See the trend?

And Stokes still can't get into playing shape. Doesn't appear to be anything physically wrong with him - he just can't run up and down the floor more than a couple of times before getting gassed.
