FAU Takes On Butler To Begin ESPN Invitational

Kind of unrelated, but something I’ll watch for. I watched the Purdue vs Marquette game last night. I think Vlad is more skilled than eddy. Feed him the ball 

Edey is a "slow" big man…but he's alleged to have pulled in ~ $1M in NIL…that's crazy.

Going to be taking a big hit in our guard rotation for the invitational.

#FAU guard Nick Boyd (upper leg) will not play today in the Owls' opener in Orlando. He is doubtful for the remainder of the tournament as well. pic.twitter.com/2dcSE4Y4e5

Rosado will be down for the count today as well… 😭

Gonna need Lorient, Carroll, and Gaines to step up bigtime in the frontcourt.

#FAU will also be without reserve forward Giancarlo Rosado today versus #Butler due to injury. pic.twitter.com/Y236j5aksh

I think lorient will fill in well. He looks really good this year. And we’ll probably be fine if Martin gets back to his normal form 

Ugh. Those injuries are big.

I’m literally 5 miles or less from where the game is being played and won’t even get to watch it on tv. :(

FINAL: #12 Texas A&M 89 Penn State 77

First game is in the books with the Aggies pulling away with the victory. The Nittany Lions now go to the loser's bracket with their first loss this season.

JUST IN: Following the conclusion of Texas A&M's matchup with Penn State, FAU's contest against Butler will tip-off at 3:00 PM. 🦉🏀
