It appears that all the smoke surrounding Mouphtaou Yarou has quickly turned into fire. Rumors were abound this morning on campus that the big freshman was out for the year, but many held out hope that it wasn’t true. While we still are waiting an official response from the school, Jeff Goodman of FoxSports has gone on record as saying a source has told him that Yarou is gone for the entire 2009-2010 season due to the viral infection that was first discovered in Puerto Rico.
It is a crushing blow to a team that was already rebuilding its frontcourt. Yarou was in the starting lineup on opening night and was expected to play a big role in his rookie season. Now, the team will look to Maurice Sutton, Isaiah Armwood, Taylor King, and Reggie Redding when he returns for quality minutes alongside Antonio Peña.
As for Mouph, stay strong big man. Things happen in life and they suck when they happen, but you only get stronger from it. Get better soon and keep your head up. Your health is the most important thing here, so get healthy and you’ll be back in no time.
