So maybe this ongoing drama deserves its’ own thread.
I went to the best source for information, formerly twitter, now called X. And there’s entirely rational takes there of course. Protecting himself for the draft, will never play for KU, entitled kid, waste of money, first year we don’t make the dance since 89 coming up, Self should quit, well those are the actual rational takes I read there!
Who knows, maybe some of you have those takes! I’ve always been a trusting person so when I hear tight hamstring I just take that as the gospel truth and fingers crossed we won’t have just a half of a season of someone who they call the next Kobe. I don’t know the young man so I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt.
But, some may have more sinister takes. What do you think is going on?

Something is amiss. If its a Grade 1 injury - strain - it would typically take a few days to heal with rest and treatment. Grade 2 - partial tear - could take a few weeks. Grade 3 - full tear - might take months. One would assume that DP has had an MRI? That would show whether there is a partial or full tear. But I haven’t seen any information about MRI results. Anyone else?
Zion Williamson was diagnosed with a Grade 1 strain a week or so ago and would be reevaluated in 7-10. OG Anunoby pulled up with a hammy the other day and immediately left the game and the team indicated he would be out at least two weeks. Much more info provided in those cases.

I wonder what a healthy Bo Jackson’s stats would look like today. Football and/ or Baseball.

If DP was protecting himself for the draft, he would not miss the Duke game. That game is too big and features one of the other players in contention for the top pick in 2026 and Peterson wouldn’t willingly miss that game and match up that could help cement himself as the top pick in 2026.
