Coach Farley gave high praises to Eric at the UNI Men's golf spectacular. Talked about his work ethic, how he came in as a walk on, but out worked everyone else and moved up the depth charts. Ended by saying that the University needs more athletes like Eric Sanders.

I can't wait until September 1st!!.

Terrence Freeney has now been ranked as the #8 Running Back in 1-AA. The combo of Freeney/Horne has been selected as the #5 Running Back Tandem in 1-AA. David Horne was ranked as the #3 Impact RB transfer.

Returning RB's
8. Terrance Freeney, UNI (Sr., 5-10, 225) - Freeney was slowed by injuries in the first half of 2004, and the Panthers got off to a 1-4 start. But as Freeney got going, so did the team. In the end, the senior notched his second 1,000- yard season in a row by rushing for 1,100 yards and seven touchdowns with a 4.5 yard per carry average. Freeney’s rushing helped spearhead a six-game win streak to close the season. He went for 136 yards and a touchdown as UNI got past Youngstown State, and followed up that effort with a 164 yard tally in a win against Southwest Missouri State. He ran for 100 yards or more in four of the last six games, and topped 80 in the other two contests. While he didn’t match his 2003 production of 1,261 yards and 16 touchdowns, Freeney proved himself as a top running back and has a great chance at a third consecutive 1,000-yard season on a balanced UNI offense.

Tandem
5. Northern Iowa ( Terrance Freeney and David Horne) - Freeney had a second consecutive solid season, with 1,100 yards and seven touchdowns. It remains to be seen how head coach Mark Farley will incorporate Horne into the Panthers’ attack, but the Nebraska transfer ran for 651 yards and seven touchdowns in 2002 before seeing his action reduced the past two seasons.

Eric Sanders may be a great asset to the University as an athlete but he makes even great contributions to the community with his great card shark skills. Keep up the good work Eric.

Aces: looks to me like we have another poster that is merely here to try and stir up controversy and get a rise out of panther nation.....if that is true, please let me, and the rest of us that are here for good conversation know this, so that we can just ignore your posts from now on.....

I believe I know what Aces is referring to. I have a friend who lives in Bender Hall who tells me that Eric Sanders is really good at Texas Hold 'Em, and plays frequently with his friends on his floor. My friend has had the honor of losing to Eric many times. Considering my friend is really good at poker, that should say something about Eric...

I am a student at Northern. I am not ashamed to say that Eric Sanders has played cards with me and has dragged some good pots. He's a great individual and a good asset to the football squad and university. In no way is me saying that Eric Sanders is a good card player stirring up controversy. I really like that kid and wish him the best.
