      That really sucks! With him and CO out are front court depth is not good. If you look at the bright side at least they aren't out for the season.

          Who in the UNI Athletics Department doesn't have a stress fracture... hell, even some of the trainers and coaches might.

              I just can't believe we're discussing this already. Mid-October already??
              "...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."

                Well... with Pehl and Olivier out with foot injuries... what does our startling lineup look like now?

                Johnny Moran
                ANTHONY JAMES
                Marc Sonnen
                Chip Rank
                Jake Koch

                What do you think?

                  This much is true: the possibility of losing Jacobson to the Aggies was real.

                  “It was very real,” Dannen said. “I didn’t think A. and M. was ever a fit. It didn’t make any sense, knowing the people that wanted to talk to him and he didn’t want to talk to. I don’t think I realized at first how serious it was.”

                  Oklahoma, Missouri and Georgia Tech all called wanting to discuss their vacancies with Jacobson. No thanks, Jacobson told them.
                  When practice starts Friday, Jacobson will welcome a talented rookie class. One of them, Deon Mitchell fromPflugerville,Texas, could start at point guard. Another, 6-foot-8 Seth Tuttle from West Fork, could be the starter at center.
                  “There are so many good things about our program right now,” Jacobson said. “How do you know how they’re going to be somewhere else? Regardless of which school it is or what league they’re in. Having a sold-out arena is a sold-out arena. Having young guys who can really play and make good decisions is pretty good. The support of your administration, the student body and the community. We’re got all those things.”

                          A little bit, but at least it is a shooter. This is also the first time someone has worn #12 since Ben Jacobson.

                            Hey fellas. I'm the new basketball beat writer for the Courier and also new here to Panther Nation.

                            I'm working on my story right now, which will be in Wednesday's paper with a couple follow-ups coming later this week/next week.

                            If you need anything, feel free to get in touch with me.

                              let me say this, out of all that I took out of today. Deon Mitchell is confident and ready to play NOW. The kid doesn't want to just be competitive, he wants to WIN. For a kid that young, really refreshing that he had that attitude coming all the way from Texas to Cedar Falls. Some of the guys were just sitting around and damn, for the first time in years I didn't recognize every single face. Sonnen is a goof, might be the new comic relief that O'Rear was. Tuttle and Mitchell will probably NOT redshirt, according to Jacobson, enjoy more here... I'll update throughout the night...
