Any word on Norm coming back? 

Post#1 » by HOOOMAN » Wed Dec 12, 2018 11:21 am

Its been 4 weeks. He should be getting near contact practice atleast?

Watching Miles out there really makes you miss norm :noway:

I think he was actually pretty decent in the few games he did play this year

There’s no updates from any media but I can say from my own personal view that I went to the Denver game on Monday and he was scrimmaging with Phil Handy at full speed before shootaround. Didn’t look like his shoulder was bothering him at all. They’re probably going to have to get him up to game speed in practice but I’d say sometime shortly after our West Coast trip he should be on track to return.

This was from 2 days ago so he's probably out till we get home from the road trip

Guess is 1-2 weeks. It won't make a huge difference but better than Brown who looks atrocious.

I wonder why Boucher hasn't been called up. I really like him as a distance guy, especially given how much we need it right now.

I'd say next week is a reasonable guess. If not Dec 19 against the Pacers, Dec 21 against the Cavs IMO

A bag of chips is better than miles at this point
