Much like great churches, we bring in damaged goods and help those goods turn their lives around. Isn't that right?!

I was just checking the UNI directory, and when I put in Dre Dokes and Alphonso Key's names, there was no listing. I checked some of the other Panther FB names, and the others came up. Are these two still enrolled at UNI? Is this why we might be going after a CB transfer? Not trying to start rumors, just some speculation on my part.The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

why in the heck would dokes and key be gone?!?!
i would think that is crazy speculation....."We're not an ordinary school," said Fort. "We have tradition. We have a good team year after year. We rebuild, and it doesn't matter who we have coming back."

That's a good question, but the rest of the names I tried came up with directory matches. It's odd, I know. Anyone know of the standing of these two and why they aren't in the UNI directory, while Hakim Hill and the rest of the transfers are?The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

They're both still enrolled... and I know that Dre lives in the dorms so I don't know why his name wouldn't be coming up cuz usually everyone with on-campus housing is for sure listed in the directory. But they are both still here."...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."Comment

Great! Thanks! I was just curious as to why there would be speculation that Belleus would transfer to UNI, when we have a plethera of capable cornerbacks in the stable (who are young as well!).The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

Is Walner interested in UNI and has he visited? I think it would be a huge addition with Tyler Johnson and James Eidelburgh graduating. I know he was a corner at Iowa, but I think Walner has played some Safety.Comment

I highly doubt that is Farley's motive in bringing in guys like Sapp, Hill, and Belleus.Originally posted by Panthers to the BoneComment

They are both there. I'm not sure what you saw.
Look for a few guys to leave in the near future from the team, but these two aren't at risk.
Look for another D-1 transfer as well. Possibly 2-3. A few won't decide until after spring drills at their current schools.Comment

When I put there names into the directory search, it still doesn't work for me, but it obviously is for you. Thanks for the help!
Any names of those who might leave? Are they starters?The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

Just use the last name search and type in "doke" and "key." They'll show up.
No starters at this time, but I don't have 100% of all available info.
The staff has their eye on a couple of juniors from Casey Tierney's high school. They are kind of hoping these kids don't attend camps at ISU or Iowa so they can continue to fly under the radar and get them for next year's class. A lineman and a TE/LB.Comment

One more

Sorry, and I don't know how I forgot this, but there is one MAJOR player that I'm a little nervous about. I won't post his name because I think he's a confused young man right now. Let the speculation begin, I guess, but remember--you asked. ;-)Comment

And just what if a name leaks out and that name is the wrong one? A kids rep can be seriously tarnished. I dont understand how you could feel good about being right, if you somehow are.Originally posted by PantherInsider
I may get ripped for this rip but am I the only one that is sick of people posting crap like this on a message board? Honestly, you seem to think this is funny (as evidenced by your "wink"). Do you realize you are posting about real people? Real young men that are representing this school? How many of us were confused between 18-22??? I sure wouldn't want anyone speculating about it on a board.
You say we "asked" for it but I think people were looking for facts, not speculation.
I understand that you are an "insider" and can provide us with great information but posting stuff like this can do no one a bit of good. Honestly, its like when we were kids and ran around saying, "I know something you dont know" to get our friends interested and then wouldn't tell them.
The great thing about boards like this is you get access to lots of valuable information and the bad thing about these boards is you get access to lots of "valuable" information.
Statements like this do nothing but fan the flames on the rumor mill and that can only lead to trouble. We have players that post on this board, media members and, undoubtedly coaches and high ranking people that at least read what goes on here... there is absolutely no sense in starting things like this.
I would hate to have this board start banning lots of topics b/c of rumors run rampant... yes, you will find this on many other boards. Example - On a Wisconsin message board rumors start flying that Bielema has an "out-clause" on his contract (he doesn't) to go to Iowa if he would like. Too many people took it as fact and it was pandemonium to the point that the Athletic Department had to call a news conference to address all rumors. And now even the slightest bit of speculation leads to problems on that board.
I know you think what you wrote is pretty minimal but all it takes is someone else chiming in with: "Hey I bet you its ____________" and then someone else follows with, "Yeah, that makes sense" and another, and another and all of a sudden you've got a full blown rumor on your hands.
Sorry for the tirade but if there is one thing I've noticed on this board, its that most people steer clear of dangling information out there that has no business being out. Dont post something unless you learned it from a credible source, its a concrete fact and that source doesn't mind being revealed... and even then I'd caution that we don't necessarily "deserve" to know about it just because we are fanatics.Last edited by UNI MadCat; 02-10-2006, 01:05 PM.Comment

Ummmm...the post you just made reference too is over an ENTIRE YEAR OLD. I think whatever happened, happened; and is well in the past. Just thought I'd throw that out there...Originally posted by UNI MadCat
