So... apparently "sweetpea" was either just speculating or toying with us with the prediction that Jelena would get minutes in Maui. 1) She didn't participate in warm-ups before tonight's game and 2) Scott Rueck said in the presser that he still didn't know if Jelena was going to "be joining us". Scott did say that she is another outstanding post player, which had Mik and Destiny nodding their heads enthusiastically. I would love to see her readied for a surprise appearance at a critical time against Stanford or tdsr with some plays designed for her... and see Graves and Tara V. scrambling to cope.

Jelena may well see her 1st minutes this week, in Hawaii. You heard it here 1st. Pure speculation or evidence-based? Sure hoping you’re right! She could make a huge difference this year. I spoke with her at a recent game and she said she thought that she would begin in January. That is what she is being told but maybe she will be ready sooner. Hawaii?

In practice this morning she was able to do some of the drills, then sat on the sidelines doing her PT. My mistake earlier. No way is she ready to play.

It is good to know she is doing more than free throws. Sounds like there is a chance she will be ready in January. Can you say what kind of drills she was able to do? Did she seem winded or struggling in any way? Hopefully it is still just a matter of strengthening the knee.

I don't have a clue who sweetpea is. Does anyone? Is it assumed that the knows what he's talking about? Can we assume that he was at practice this morning? Or that he communicates with someone who was? Like I say. Just curious. Any help? GO BEAVS !!

Sailor-Man and Ms Olive Oyl, who, rather amazingly, actually shed 11 pounds from her 6'4", 82 7/8 pound frame during pregnancy. Ms Oyl is in the Guiness Book of Records for having the smallest breasts ever measured on a grown woman, while Mr. Sailor-Man is in there for having the greatest forearm to bicep ratio (13.8 to 1) known to man or any other species.

I’m just another Beaver Believer. I did watch practice this morning in Lahaina. Jelena is not ready. Trainer had her working knee bends. “I know it hurts but go as low as you can.” More healing time needed.
