Is there any truth to the rumor that Garcia might make an appearance in tonight's game?

[Comment From Dan Wolken]
It's not really a rumor. He has been cleared and practiced Monday and Tuesday. Whether the coaches feel comfortable putting him in the game will be a game-time and game situation type decision. Garcia looked OK in practice given the circumstances but it's awful hard to expect him to do much given how long he's been out.

I have seen Will Barton play several times this yr at Brewster Academy. He stands out above the rest on a teanm loaded with D-1 talent playing against D-1 talent.Can u tell me how his play compares with Jelan Kendricks?Is Joe Jackson as good a PG as Barton is a SG? If EW stays will the 4 of them start if not which one sits in your opinion?

Will Barton is more of a 2/3 type. Kendrick can play the point, which you will not see Barton doing at all. Kendrick is more of a creator, and Barton is more of a finisher. I think Joe is one of the top 3 players at his position in the country, which Barton is as well.

If the Tigers win tonight and Saturday, do you think that would be enough to put them on the bubble?
1:04
[Comment From Dan Wolken]
Yes, it would put them into the bubble conversation. It seems that the bubble is weak this year, so that helps the Tigers' cause. I think the main focus should just be on winning as many games as you can and getting in good position for the C-USA Tournament. The bubble talk will take care of itself.
