Sounds about right. Can't imagine he'll suit up for the red and blue scrimmage. Way too ragged. If all goes well, they'll probably ease him through the exhibition schedule and have him "ready" for the start of the season. I wasn't expecting big minutes from Kostas early in the season prior to this news but this for sure seals that fate. He'll be a bit behind on practice time and conditioning so I'd expect very light minutes that will hopefully ramp up as the season goes along. There's a real opportunity for Trey Landers and Matej Svoboda to earn minutes to start the season with these injuries to Mikesell and Kostas.
