Woolridge's status is far from certain with a game against FIU less than 40 hours away. It's a game that North Texas likely needs to win, but Woolridge is so important and at this point it's just about winning the tournament, I'm not sure what Grant will do. I asked him about balancing those options and he gave me the last quote in my recap. Here's what he said about him that is for certain:
"I know he has some groin pain and he's just been playing a lot of minutes. I think he has some pretty significant wear and tear on his body at this point and keeping him fresh is going to be a big deal moving forward."

This game is real important for North Texas seeding in the Conf USA tourney..they have a new system with pods for seeding..I'm confused ..its to help teams like last yrs Mid Tenn that won 25 games and got beat in the tourney and didn't get a bid to other bigger conferences with MT having better stats. But have to pass on this game.. Woolridge has the ball 75% time..he is the penetrater...and the way NT is shooting from the outside they could be in trouble... even if he suits up is he 100%...NT was 16-1 at one pt...they have now lost 3 of last 5..they beat Rice by 1,lost to UTSA on last second shot,FAU just beat them by 10 the other day.... I use index cards on each team..of course I have to update them with stats..but looking at NT a few weeks ago...and last nite..what a difference.. but their defense has remained solid ranking them in the 60's..if Woolridge isn't playing would take FIU +2.5 hope that helps
