I saw on twitter where Diante Wood had surgery on his ankle and will miss 4 months. Dazon Ingram is day-to-day with an ankle sprain.

Agreed. Our roster is deep so I figured he would probably redshirt even before the injury.Yup. Wood wont be needed much this year.

Hopefully it won't get as bad as last year. Sounds like Dazon should be back soon. I also read where the wrist that Donta hurt late last season was taped but that might be just a preventive measure to keep from re-injuring it.Dang, it has already started.
I don't know if Bama has ever made it through a season without injuries. Seems like there are usually some significant ones (i.e. specific player or type of injury).Hopefully it won't get as bad as last year. Sounds like Dazon should be back soon.

I don't have the exact quote from Coach Johnson but he more or less said that it was almost a given that Diante Wood would redshirt given that he probably will not be back from the injury until February. Wood is considered to be a shooting guard. The only game I saw that he played in was the championship game and he scored from outside and inside. It appeared to me that he played inside more than he did outside but he was able to do both and he hit several 3's. He had a very smooth shot and was very accurate from what I saw. However, he played mostly against 1A competition in high school so it's not realistic to expect him to come into the SEC and contribute immediately.I don't know if Bama has ever made it through a season without injuries.

Anyone:
At this point, barring any loss of players during the season, is it likely that Wood will redshirt?
I don't know much about his game. Did he score in high school as a shooter or score more driving to the basket?
The cowboy player?Woods Red-shirting is probably the best thing at this point anyway. I am really excited about this season. I think we'll be pretty good even with a deeper SEC. I am hearing Tavon Austin will be a stud this season.
I didn't see your post just before mine or else I wouldn't have asked about the red-shirting. Still would have asked about his game so thanks for the good information.I don't have the exact quote from Coach Johnson but he more or less said that it was almost a given that Diante Wood would redshirt given that he probably will not be back from the injury until February.

You mean Tevin Mack?Woods Red-shirting is probably the best thing at this point anyway. I am really excited about this season. I think we'll be pretty good even with a deeper SEC. I am hearing Tavon Austin will be a stud this season.
