If he plays we've had major, major injury issues. He needs the year.

Media Day today, appears to feature some throwback unis, similar to the 2009-2010 team that recently was inducted into the UNI HOF.

You know we're getting close to basketball season when Mudra is complaining about the best player UNI has had in years having the ball in his hands a lot!

They don't get everything perfectly accurate but I appreciate the depth they go into and the amount of research they do in this preview.

Wow! If 3 man weave is creditable, it is hard to believe that the talent on our team can only produce one player on the First 3 MVC teams or the all MVC newcomer’s team. Luckily AJ’s dad is on the coaching staff or we would have a big fat zero.

Another 3 man weave tidbit on the MVC. No surprises but this puts into perspective how slow and defensive-minded the MVC has been.

Seeing a lot of outside sources listing Phyfe as a junior, did he not get a red shirt?

He's been approved but its not official until after his senior year. He's technically a junior but he's still got 3 years of eligibility.

Gotcha. Kind of a weird way to do it, but it wouldn't be the NCAA without being weird.

Did I miss an announcement about Sonnen coming back to UNI in some sort of capacity? Based on his Twitter he's leaving his coaching/training role in MN and someone wished him luck at UNI.

I did see that Jon Little left as Video Coordinator for a gig in the D or G League. I wonder if Sonnen is taking his position?
