Richards is academically eligible now. His summer school work allowed that to be the case. He actually played in Puerto Rico. He did miss some practice time due to a finger injury. He is back to practicing now but he did get behind. When we go with a "small lineup" and Brown is in foul trouble, you may see Lewis and Charles playing the 5 and 4 spots. At other times you will see Richards back up Brown in a traditional center role. As Cajuns80 said, Charles is practicing with no limitations now. His injury suffered in Puerto Rico was not as severe as once believed. It occurred when he flipped over Brown late in the second GAme held there. From what I recall, it did involve the knee. I think he was cleared for full contact about 2 weeks ago but I could be wrong on the actual date he got the OK. Once actual games begin, we will do more basketball podcasts. We can't discuss the two secret scrimmages other than to say one has already happened and the other will be this weekend. If anyone somehow finds out details about those and is tempted to share them here, please refrain from doing so. The NCAA frowns upon information from those being released. If anyone attending the basketball golf tournament on Friday wants to talk about things mentioned on the podcast, I would be happy to discuss. Of course that would have to be before or after the actual play.
