Major impact in return Odigie returned from a concussion Saturday and had 15 points (6-10 FG, 3-6 FT), four rebounds and a steal in 20 minutes of action in a 70-47 win over Charlotte.

Impact Odigie made his return from a nine-game absence due to a concussion and showed no signs of rust. The 6-9 junior was awarded a season-high 20 minutes of playing time and turned it into a very efficient scoring performance that could lead to more playing time as the regular season winds down.

Status uncertain for weekend Odigie (concussion) remains in the team's concussion protocol and is questionable to play in Friday's game against FIU, Andy Morgan of KTSM 9 News reports.

Impact Odigie has missed the past seven games due to a concussion, and his status remains up in the air ahead of this weekend's two-game set against FIU on Friday and Saturday. The team expects to have Odigie back at some point this season, but it might not be this weekend. If that's the case, it'll continue to give Tydus Verhoeven and Bryson Williams plenty of minutes to work with.

Expected to miss weekend games Odigie (concussion) remains in the team's protocol and is not expected to play this weekend's two-game set against UAB, Colin Deaver of KTSM Sports reports.

Impact Odigie has missed the past five games and will likely sit this weekend due to his concussion. The junior's absence will continue to leave Bryson Williams with a large share of the opportunities in the paint.

In concussion protocol Odigie has missed the last two games while stuck in the team's concussion protocol, Colin Deaver of KTSM TV reports.

Impact Odigie reportedly took a hard fall in practice which led to him being placed in the team's concussion protocol. The 6-9 junior has averaged 4.1 points and 2.8 rebounds in 10.2 minutes off the bench as his absence will create more opportunities for Bryson Williams to additional work.

Returns after one-game hiatus Odigie (ankle) came off the bench in Friday's 101-89 win over Rice and had one rebound while not attempting a field goal in three minutes of action.

Impact Odigie was able to suit up Friday after missing the team's last game. His three minutes of playing time were the least he's had in a game throughout his three-year career with the Miners. The 6-9 junior is averaging a career-low 3.6 points and 2.8 rebounds in 9.9 minutes per game this season as he's taken a backseat to Tydus Verhoeven and Bryson Williams in the frontcourt.

No action Saturday Odigie did not take the court Saturday against North Texas.

Impact After starting 24 combined games over the past two seasons for the Miners, Odigie has seen his role diminish in his junior year. Bryson Williams has served as the primary center, while Odigie has been held to single-digit minutes in three consecutive games. It's unclear if there's an injury in play, or if Odigie is falling out of the rotation.
