  • Greg Coleman???

    Not trying to stir the pot at all but I read this morning where Greg Coleman has left the ISU program and plans on transferring. He started 5 games last year when Hicks was hurt. Is he worth the gamble? Can he catch the ball out of the backfield? Is he a good fit?

        He has a wrap sheet from his IC days. I don't know if it's worth the gamble. I don't know much about him though.

The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

          He likes to fumble the ball in situtations where it costs the game.

          From what I've heard he likes to hang out with the wrong crowd and acts like he owns the place. Remove one of those two and maybe he can straighten out; the hands are another issue.

            Bad crowds are available in every town, and Cedar Falls is no different. The staff would have to have a real commitment from the young man to doing things the right way.

              I don't think he's talented enough to take a gamble.

                  I think UNI would have to know why he left ISU first. If his head's right and they give him a list of rules he has to abide by...or he's gone...then I'm ok with adding him to the roster. Farley and Co. have been able to rehabilitate other teams' 'problem' players.

                    Give him a chance, just like Hill from IC. If he Fs-up.....Buh Bye...

                      Can he play in front of Williams, Law, and Lewis?

                        I think he would play a role similar to our FB from last year after moving over from LB. I don't think he'd be a feature back at all. But his size and athleticism would be a plus in the backfield.

                          I'd give him a look, if the coaches feel they can turn him around.

                            I'd guess he left ISU because he is looking like the 4th back in behind Hicks, Scales, and Harris. Plus there is a good back coming in. I agree with 2317 I'd say he could fill a role nicely, but he isn't going to be a feature back. If he worked on the hands more who knows he could be good.

                              Hime, all you do is post negative posts about UNI (football especially). I see it on Hawkeye Report all the time where you are bashing Farley & others at UNI. What is your problem? If you have a problem w/ UNI why don't you go back to the Iowa board & keep your negative comments to yourself. Your sports knowledge sure is lacking based on all of your comments I've read over the past year.
