    I saw where the roster has been updated at www.unipanthers.com

    Some noted changes:
    Additions:
    Brett Bergman 6'3"/325lb RS Freshman transfer from Iowa State on the OL (from BCLUW)
    Josh Fristley 5'11"/230lb Junior FB transfer from Ellsworth CC (originally from New Orleans)
    Cyrus Garrett 6'1"/246lb RS Junior Linebacker transfer from Illinois
    Matt Mackey 6'2"/255lb Junior DE transfer from Iowa Central CC (from CR Prairie)
    Everette Pedescleaux 6'5"/240 RS Freshman DE transfer from Minnesota

    Not listed:
    Kyle Wilcox (RS Freshman) from WDM Dowling
    Ryan Cosgrove (Sophomore) at fullback
    Anthony Dobek-Trolio (Sophomore WR) from Florida
    Deric Mickens (Freshman LB) from Cedar Rapids area

    Increase in size:
    Joe Lobdell: 6'6"/277lb (up from 258lb)---soph
    Barrett Anderson: 6'3"/313lb (up from 297lb)---soph
    Chad Rhinehart: 6'5"/301lb (up from 285lb)---soph
    Jeff Bates: 6'4"/310lb (up from 303lb)---senior
    Adam Falk: 6'3"/290lb (up from 280lb)---soph

    Charles Johnson: 6'1"/324 (up from 300lb)---senior (D-line)

    On top of that, some of the incoming freshmen are listed really big for their age/position. It's great to see progress made in the off-season!

    PTTB - once again, great information! It's good to see there are kids really putting in the hours this summer to help them chase their dream of a Gateway Conference Crown, a 1-AA Play-Off appearance and a run at the National Championship. Go Panthers!!!

    Those not listed on the roster, are they not enrolled for the fall semester...or are they redshirting...decided to attend elsewhere?

      Cosgrove, Wilcox, and Mickens are all still enrolled at UNI, but I couldn't find Dobek-Trolio.

          Wilcox?

          Any idea what going on with Wilcox? He was a very good high school player going both ways on a strong Dowling team. I think he has a brother that plays at Iowa.

          It looks like we have some good additions to the team but I also hate to see us lose good young players such as RS Freshman Kyle Wilcox.

          Has anyone heard how the newest transfers are fitting in with the team?
          Brett Bergman 6'3"/325lb RS Freshman transfer from Iowa State on the OL (from BCLUW)
          Cyrus Garrett 6'1"/246lb RS Junior Linebacker transfer from Illinois
          Everette Pedescleaux 6'5"/240 RS Freshman DE transfer from Minnesota

          Some times it's hard for the D-1A players to adjust to D-1AA. Not all of them, but some come in with an attitude and don't want to work as hard and expect things to be easy for them. I hope this is not the case with this team. I hope they can all contribute in a positive way.

          Could this be the year? It sure sounds like this team has some talent ....and depth. We need both of those factors to stay true plus stay injury free. Staying injury free was one of the reasons the 01 team made it to the Semi Finals

          Another note... The FB from Ellsworth could be a nice replacement for one of the positions with a question mark. The size seems pretty close to the "Baby Bull" Reggie Brown.
          Josh Fristley 5'11"/230lb Junior FB transfer from Ellsworth CC (originally from New Orleans)


          September 1st is not coming fast enough!

            No, I don't know about Wilcox. I hated not seeing him on the list, and I hope it's just a typo with him not being listed. He was really one of the more touted freshman recruits last season (plus he is an Iowa kid).

              Wes Lane #93 is still not listed...however they have his brother Nate Lane as #93 when Nate's number is actually #53.

              Anyone out there know someone in the football dept. that could possibly bring this error to their attention??

                Roster

                I passed your information on.
                Thanks for the catch.

                  Wilcox is gone form the team.

                  I have been informed that Kyle Wilcox has quit the team. Coach Farley informed the information office to have his name removed from the roster.

                  I was mistaken earlier today when I commented that Kyle has a brother playing at Iowa. I'm not sure if they are related or not.

                    Alright JC, you can check now... it's just been corrected...

                        Probably won't have a bio this year. Most of the time, those get written for the purpose of the media guide and then just get copy/pasted to the web bios. Other reasons bios get written would be recruits that the sports info. people had early information on last spring in order to put information about the recruits/transfers into the media guide (which has to be published by July). I hope that all makes sense. As far as his picture... there are a few players that still need to get their headshots taken. Hopefully it will get done this year, but with their schedules now... there's no guarantee.

                          Side note:

                          I saw Wilcox at the game last night walking around. I assume he is still enrolled.
