Here is what Mike Young said about Tyler Johnson after today's game:
Mike Young's full quote: "Tyler Johnson, we're all geared up. Sat him intentionally in Miami on Tuesday thinking today's the day, we'll get him back, and he practiced on Thursday and was good. Rusty, but good. He didn't reinjure anything. There was a play, he didn't go down. He went back to the locker room in yesterday's practice and talked to Hisham [Ziyout] and came back and he just wasn't ready.
"Now, we've got a week off. I'm not going to speculate. I hope like heck we can get him geared up and ready to go against the Tar Heels. Time will tell. I'm not misleading anyone, that's as honest as I can be."

I bet he's "chomping at the bit" to get back on the court.
