Re: Two Noteworthy Milestones This Evening

I honestly do not know anything about Joe Green. I dont remember him from the team last year but he is listed as a senior. I know he is a transfer but whats the story?

Re: Two Noteworthy Milestones This Evening

Joe Green is a transfer from South Dakota State that will be eligible 2nd Semester. He is originally from Waverly. I don't expect him to see the floor at all, except in super mop up duty. I bet he gets some minutes against Wartburg in the first game he is eligible...

Yeah i didn't know either. I was told that he played at SDSU for two years and then transferred back to UNI and hasn't played at all the last two years. I guess he played with Brooks, Viet, and Josten all through high school on thier aau team and that they kinda talked him into playing again. I don't know though. I asked why he wasn't eligible and he said something about the NCAA rule that you have to have so much % of your major complete each year before you're eligible and Joe didn't have enough credits. I don't know much so don't quote me on that. He just smiled and said that he is going to be the dark horse going into conference play, so lets hope thats true. And Im really excited to see Reed on the floor. This kid is exciting to watch, and will instantly make this a better offensive team.

And one last thing, everyone is complaining about Coleman not starting and what not, but he played terrible last night. He forced some ridiculous shots and made some bad decisions and if he would have hit half the free throws he missed we win.

Thats what coleman does most games. Sometimes, those improv shots go in, and in those cases UNI wins.

Re: Two Noteworthy Milestones This Evening

youre an idiot. if you would read my posts, i have never once said that the instate games dont help iowa's RPI. I was talking from strictly a home-game revenue standpoint. plus, these games have helped iowa's RPI for, what, FOUR FRICKING YEARS OUT OF 20. if you knew me you wouldnt be questioning whether I cheer for UNI. the biggest problem i have with UNI is clueless fans like yourself.

Get off it. I was referring to Johnny. He's the tool. I actually agree with much of what you have to say. But you need to chill out here. You claim to be a UNI fan yet you argue with every UNI fan on here, almost always taking the Hawkeye side of the fence.

That's not what bothers me. I root for the Hawkeyes after UNI as well. What bothers me is that you called me an idiot and called me out when I wasn't even referring to you. You're acting like kind of a hot head.

Re: Two Noteworthy Milestones This Evening

Fine, but you need to stay out of the dual-fan thread, for your own good.

1) A banged-up, depleted Iowa team won handily on Northern's home floor.

2) Rick Hartzell made perhaps one of the year's most idiotic statements. ''We are doing Iowa a favor by playing them, because we bring up their RPI.'' Yeah...right. The Iowa game has been a cash cow at UNI for years...but it's really Iowa who gets more out of the game? Please. Oh wait...I guess Iowa did tonight...with a win.

Rick, if you are reading the boards...was UNI able to defend its home floor against Iowa tonight? Didn't think so.

Jonny...two things...

1. When the other team has an open 3 pointer with under a minute left to tie the game, you haven't won handily.

2. You're an idiot.
