Yes. AK definitely implied he wanted upgrades in The Bart.

Getting the checkbook ready.

Those end zone seats at protective below the scoreboard went unbought

Yeah…exactly.
Club level for those people who pay big bucks…and if they don’t show up to sit in club seats, you can’t really tell.

Win-win if people buy club seats instead of prime courtside(ish) seats. UAB still gets the donor money, but it doesn’t look as bad when those seats are empty

Bingo!

Leblanc has an injured triceps. He’ll be back soon I think … actually good timing here to get Rongie more minutes

AK said LeBlanc had a recurring knee issue that would keep him out indefinitely.

Ok, interesting. Rothstein yesterday reported out with triceps injury per AK

I heard it on blazer sports line I think. I will have to go back and listen again and make sure I heard it right.

So he’s been “sick, tricep & knee” and not on the bench the last two games?? I’m a little suspicious. Hopefully he’ll be on the bench Sunday.

Went back and listened again he said knee injury.

I agree. Very weird set of circumstances.

Y’all ever heard of a knee injury keeping a player from being on the bench supporting his team? Especially for two straight games at Bartow.

Also, had you heard said "knee" injury being also described separately as a triceps injury and an "illness."

I hope it's nothing, but it sounds very fishy. Especially with him not being on the bench.

AtalaBlaze said he was sick in the MTSU thread and would return when he feels better… in this thread I’ve seen Rothstein referenced re: triceps injury, and AK re: knee injury. “Sick”, I understand not being with team for 2 games. Slight knee or triceps injury… I ain’t buying that. I just know that I’ll be very pleased when/if we see him. 3 game absences for unsaid reasons are not unheard of with D1 teams. We’ll know soon enough.
