Now this is getting scary

Juwan Parker may not be able to go against Vanderbilt.

This is scary, because it means the Bulldogs are essentially 7 deep going into Nashville if you give Cameron Forte the benefit of the doubt and count him as depth.  For now, I choose to do so.

In Parker and Kenny Paul Geno, the Dawgs have lost roughly 8 points and 5 rebounds per game.  That's not irreplaceable, but it's also not nothing.

There's a silver lining in that the injury doesn't look to be that serious and he'll probably be back by Florida at the latest.

If you need a little more reason for hope, there's also last year's game vs. Vanderbilt which saw the Commodores come in and beat the Bulldogs at home despite being so thin they had to dress out a manager.  Maybe we can return the favor this year.

And curse the universe for making me remember that game...
