OLDIUFAN Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 Is there any news on his progress so far! Are they thinking he will be ready at the start of the season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierhoopster Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 He’s been in Btown, rehabbing with Garl, including a lot of on floor running and conditioning, and weight training in the afternoons. There hasn’t been any public update from the staff since June, when CAM basically said Hunter hasn’t been cleared but they were working with him through the summer and would know more in July or August. We’ll probably get an update later this month but or sometime in August. For now, I believe he’s on track to returning to practice with the team by end of summer or so — I don’t have that on first hand info, that’s just my take at this point. If we do get Hunter back by the beginning of the season or so, that’s a major wild card. We need shooting, Hunter brings oustside shooting, length at 6’7 on the wing, and all around scoring. He is an NBA level talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the intel. We know, per coach Miller that Jerome is working on coming back. Question is when. Unfortunately, Jerome's situation is not injury related. Not an injury at all. Rather, a condition. I want to thank all the HSN members who sent Jerome prayers and thoughts while he was in Cleveland Clinic. It helped. But.... Don't stop now.

tdhoosier Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 In recent months interviews on Hoosier Hysterics, both Morgan and Roberts sounded almost certain that he’ll be back next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrimsonV Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 With it coming up on a month since seeing anything on Jerome, is there any update to keep the hope alive for an on-time return this season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IowaHoosierFan Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 i really think we need to temper the expectations for a guy who really hasn't had practice or conditioning for over a year and hasn't had the chance to really compete against college level opponents. I hope he is all that everyone says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fair, but it's also fair to consider that he won the gold jersey right before his injury, and his lost season was not a structural injury like an ACL or knee. He's not going to forget how to play ball, and if he is healthy, he'll come in after plenty of scrimmages and conditioning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehiiu Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 After checking. I found out that Jerome is making good progress. And has not had a set back from the condition that sidelined him last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know baseball is different but the Reds Scooter Gennett got hurt in March and just came back in July and right now he does not even look like the same player. It will take any player in any sport some time to get back into the swing of things in a game setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUwins0708 Posted July 29, 2019 Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 He’s expected/expecting to play right away. I’ve been told he will start 5 on 5 in September. He’s been playing in other places when coaches aren’t around....😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
