Mirkovic suffered a foot injury in a team workout and had surgery. No timetable on his return.

Every fucking year…

Best case scenario imo would be looking at a Dec 4th FULL return, he may get some playing time with rehab/Fletch working their magic before then, but really no other reason before then to return too early.

Non Conference up to then is very winnable without Mirk EXCEPT  for the Duke game.

Duke pre-season #1- #2 in most places, maybe a loss with him, maybe not.....50/50 either way so why risk it? No shame in losing to a #1-2? team without possibly our best player?

UCONN is the game that he should be ready for and the ONE that we need him the most non conference schedule wise!
