Re: Gene Teague transferring out of SIU

Not that I'm interested in it here, but you don't really lose the years of eligibility while you are sitting out, do you?

Example: if Doug was made to sit out two years, he still would have had his full four years of eligibility after that, right?

He would of had 3 years

No it isn't different. Once an athlete signs a LOI they are "enrolled" in they eyes of the conference, which is why there were was the make him sit or not controversy to begin with.

Yes, it did come down to UNI enforcing the rule not the conference because the conference put us in that ****ty situation from the start. They said, before UNI announced what we were going to to, that they would not enforce the rule unless UNI wanted it enforced. No matter what Dannen and Jake were the bad guy to one side of the issue.

I guess I don't know about the conference specific rules but he was not considered a transfer to the ncaa since he was not enrolled. National letter of intent is a separate organization from the ncaa and there is only a penalty for not fulfilling a NLI if you are not released.

Sorry but I don't want my big man to be named "Gene."

"Gene" might be a better name than "Austin'.

A center by any name would be good. UCLA once had a couple guys named "Lew" and "Bill"......not exactly exciting names, but history shows that they were pretty good players!

Wait a minute...after years of names like Jordan and Brooks, Ali and Kwadzo you're drawing the line at Gene?

As long he is 7', 280, and has a 40 inch vertical, he can be called Laverne. Would that require him to be an accounting major?

If there is a kid who wants to come to UNI that is 7' 280lbs with a 40in vertical his name can be Sissy for all I care.

I read he shot someone in the head with a pellet gun in some sort of "drive-by" shooting in Carbondale. Probably not the best fit for Cedar Falls or even SIU for that matter.

Maybe Jake should adopt him...

Re: Gene Teague transferring out of SIU

So the kid who goes around shooting the fine folk of Carbondale, Illinois with a bebe gun now will have a change of scenery to the god-fearing, moralistic people of New Jersey...that should straighten him out well . At least we don't have to suffer through his temper tantrums any more...or double-double's.

"Forgot where I was at; did I find a rope or lose my horse?"

"Smoking before breakfast used to bother my neighbor. Not anymore... he just doesn't eat breakfast."

["I buy my clothing from Omar's in Waverly. Yep Omar's Tent and Awning; it's the only place with enough fabric."

"I get sort of frightened walking on campus in the winter time with icy sidewalks. If I should fall face down, I'm liable to rock to death before any finds me and picks me up." (That one might only be funny if you've seen his protruding belly.)

"No one wants to sit in the front row on the first day of class. They might end up baptized or married or something."

"I was a Waverly Volunteer Fire Fighter years ago. We never lost a foundation while I was on the Department."




And finally the best motivational speech ever given by a prof:
"Nerds win. They ALWAYS win! So we may as well be a nerd and we may as well win. This is NO time to be COOL!"

Hopefully someone on here had Andreessen in class and can appreciate these quotes. I apologize for the derail from the OP, but when I'm reminded of LWA I can't help but rattle off a handful of Andreessen-isms.

Well done. All classics. I should have written some down over the years. That's a good collection.
