Roberts Out Indefinitely: Louisiana-Monroe freshman guard Brandon Roberts will miss the start of the season and more following surgery to repair a stress fracture in his left foot. Roberts averaged 21 points and 7 rebounds per game for Van (Texas) High School, which won the state championship. Roberts was expected to contribute off the bench this season. Depending on the recovery, Roberts may return in December, although a redshirt season has not been ruled out. [10/12/05]
