Stuff that gets said... you hear it often enough, it's hard not to believe it after a while.

Where there's "smoke" there's fire!! For sure. For sure. Still a sad thing, seniors and all.

No, it sucks for his teammates, coaches, and fans.

On the field they are not huge losses...

We still have Hord, Collins, Turner, Herring, Oordt and others to catch the ball...

Craig James and Adam Roberts can fill in at corner and they can move T McMoore to Safety...

LJ Fort has played really well in the middle the past couple of weeks or we can just stand Ruffin up more, move Thompson to the middle and play Kirk and we will just end up playing less Tampa 2 and more Cover 2 & 3.

I would actually argue the loss of Parsons was great last year because there was far less depth...IMO...

Hey Sports Guy, will you have complete and accurate story on OPR tonight?

Personally, I'd rather he hold off on that. At least until there are actual facts and not just speculations.

That hurts. I know we are deep, but these are big losses.

Honestly, I'm more concerned with how this instance will hurt the teams reputation. Look at all the crap that U of Iowa has gotten from the media (and from us). But our reputation is starting to get just as muddy.

I agree we have depth at WR, but you cannot afford to lose players like Vic Williams and Johnny Gray. The defense will suffer without Darrell Lloyd and De'Veon. I personally thought Darrell could be the MVP this year.

Overall, won't hurt this weekend probably, but down the road this is a major major problem.

I disagree, we have other players that can fill the exact same roles. DJ Hord can be the same possession receiver, Collins is a big play guy. Harris is the only one that makes me a bit weary because he did a great job of running the middle of the Tampa 2 scheme. Losing Harris is the only guy that we are going to have to scheme a little differently for. We are going to be just fine...

That makes me want to throw up a little bit.

Looks like we wont be getting far in the playoffs....if we make it. My senior year at UNI too. Bummer. What a bunch of morons.

Exactly. Very discouraging.

Hey, what do you do?

The team will move on and so will we.

I dont think were going to be fine. This definitely hurts. You cant lose 4 starters two weeks before the end of the season and think that its not gonna hurt. We may have people who can step in, but these guys were starters for a reason.

I know, its just a bummer.

Good news is I have the Cubs to fall back on, they never let me down.

Re: Johnny Gray, Victor Williams, Darrell Lloyd, and De'Veon Harris Suspended

So does anyone think will hurt us playing Indiana State or even Southern Utah to close out the regular season?

On a different note, IF found guilty, then certainly there justifiably will be consequences. But remember Duke lacrosse....

Exactly. Very discouraging.

Though on the other hand, there could be a difference in magnitude.

There is a big difference between rape and assault,
versus something like underage drinking or getting busted with pot.
