Listened to Holtmann on his radio show today, and he indicated that they only had 4 eligible players at practice yesterday (heard Jon Diebler was called in as a favor to his brother). No names were mentioned, but obviously COVID is a major contributing factor.

With that being our present roster status, I have a bad feeling about January. 4 games in 11 days, 3 of them on the road, after being off for more than 3 weeks.

I've seen this movie before: we look like world-beaters to start the season, forget how to play in January, scrape together enough wins on the back end of B1G play to find our way into the tournament, and lose in the first weekend.

Can anyone talk me off my ledge here?
