Self on McLemore's ankle: "I would imagine, with a few days off, he'll be OK." Everyone breathe now.

I've heard mine pop. Rolled and sprained many times. Every time it has happened to me my initial reaction was intense pain and then "****" why did this have to happen. It will probably linger for awhile

I rolled my ankle pretty bad about 2 or 3 years ago. Thought I had heard a pop. I thought for sure I broke it. Xray showed no break. Just a bad sprain. I was on crutches for a couple weeks or so before I could attempt to get back onto the basketball court. Wore an ankle splint that allowed me to hoop but also gave the ankle good support.

Good thing you're a wussy.

And not Super Ben.

I still think KU will be more than okay without him Saturday.

FWIW, I've had a "knuckle cracking"-like pop when I've turned an ankle before.

I thought this post on phog.net was pretty funny...

Texas' defense is quite good (12th best defensive efficiency in the country). Their offense is abysmal (253rd best offensive efficiency in the country, which is quite ridiculous and even worse than Texas Tech to give some perspective).

They should be able to get by without McLemore on Saturday provided they actually give an effort.

At this point it's ankle day to day.

He's gonna be in the facility getting round the clock treatment I'd imagine.
