Oh my Gosh! I forgot about that. If a healthy CJ plays, Siena wins that game. It would have completely changed how Siena played. Siena didn't have a single respected 3 pt shooter on the roster besides him that year. Even Ubiles wasn't 100% that year. Saints got all their wins that year because Moore, RyRo, and Franklin just knew how to make it work inside so well. I agree on that, instead we had Kyle Downey playing 20+ minutes........and defensively Purdue led by Chris Kramer (who I believe was the DPOY in the Big10 that yr) really made it tough on us, we only shot mid 30% that game...........yet saying that, I remember we were up 32-29 at the half..............

Purdue was missing one of their starters too so if we're playing the what-if game you need to factor that in.

I still think they downgraded them too far. as it was, Purdue got to the sweet 16 and if they had a healthy Hummel they could have possibly made a deeper run................and just amazing, as know that same year Siena faced Butler in the "premier" bracketbuster event at Hinkle Fieldhouse, we also led that game at half 31-28 before losing............
