next three games because he an infected leg.

Associate head coach Porter Moser was on the bench for the
Billikens' Atlantic 10 opener against Dayton Wednesday night.

Louis' loss to Bowling Green on Saturday after he crashed into the
scorer's table. He collided with two players, gashing his left leg,
and left the bench when the wound began to bleed profusely.

Majerus is on blood thinner medication. He also missed a game in
the Cancun Governor's Cup due to illness.

Moser has seven years of Division I head coaching experience,
with his latest stint from 2003-07 at Illinois State.
