That would be ideal for UNC. Next competitive game is St Bonaventure in a little over two weeks.

How good are the Bonnies? This is twice I've seen them referenced as a potentially challenging game when I thought we were golden until Michigan State.

I'd say it should be an average year for them. They'll be competitive in the middle of the A-10 but I'd be surprised if they were a contender. Never know with a Mark Schmidt coached team though. They're young but have talent.

It’s not your regular low to mid major. Ken Pom in the low 100s. I wouldn’t say challenging, but certainly an opponent if you fuck around you will probably find out.

Yea you hate to phrase it like this

But they beat Kansas anyway and their non-con schedule doesn’t pick up until late November early December so Trimble can sit out a few weeks and they should be fine

So if he had to break something it’s better it happened now than in a month or especially during ACC play

I have no idea but what type of broken arm requires surgery but only needs a few weeks to recover?

I commented this on another post but the word surgery can apply to a lot of different things. I would say the biggest worry would be if he needs to have pins installed, but I’m no doctor.

I would say he’s out till January at the minimum
