2024 Offseason

I heard that Hunter Jacobson plans on transferring, upset with coaching staff, something about not getting ice cream when he was 7 years old.

Reportedly there's a scandal brewing about the UNI head coach having a sexual relationship with Hunter's mother, will do more research and get back to you guys!

Analytics say Tytan has been our best player over the whole year, he just recently pasted Nate, probably because he’s played great recently and put up some amazing stats, while Nate’s last few games haven’t been as impressive.

Tytan ranks as the #14 best player in the Valley, Heise is #19. I hope that type of ranking is a sweet spot where Heise doesn’t transfer

I heard parts of this past games’ radio broadcast. JW Cox seemed to imply that this was probably Heise’s last regular season game. It was a vague hint, not firm, so could’ve been interpretation too.

He implied... how? What did he actually say?

Oh good, the Nate Hesie is leaving us with zero actual reason to think so bull**** starts early this year

Last year it was a single throw away line in a single CycloneFanatic post that got this board all riled up about Bowen and Nate for 4 months with zero evidence or reason to believe any of it - in fact the opposite was true where there was plenty of social media posts/activity to prove it all entirely made up but this board wouldn't let it go. This year we didn't even hit the end of the season before someone started it.

Good times coming for this place, I'm sure.

Easy. The thread was created to discuss the offseason. My original comment was talking about the entire team and that he's the only one I would even think might transfer - partially because the speculation/rumors last year. I don't think anybody has said he's gone. Hell, in todays NCAA climate, I think it's pretty damn good to think, "man, there's only one guy on the team I could see considering transferring out".

As usual everyone is projecting and taking things way out of context. I don’t think it’s inappropriate to acknowledge the reality that this could be a big part of our off-season. I didn’t see anyone freak out or make any outrageous assumptions.

Hell I even said I'm agnostic to it. I do agree with the sentiments there’s no reason to worry about it especially at this moment, just don’t think similarly we have to act like the odds of things happening are equal across the board.

This thread was probably made too early, but I can understand wanting to avoid turning this into a vent thread if things go south this weekend.

Sooo....on a different but semi-related note, when are all-conference teams and end of season awards announced?

He implied... how? What did he actually say?

Can’t remember the exact quote, and as I said, it could’ve been an interpretation issue on my part. I was driving and at the time, it got me thinking for a few seconds whether Heise has another year left or not. “Vague implication” is a good way to describe it, which also means it’s possible he didn’t mean it in that context.

For those getting angst over discussion of the possibility of good players leaving (not you BAP) or another school offering buckets of NIL $, get used to it quick. It’s become very apparent the NCAA has little to no legal leverage to stop any of this. They were on the wrong end of a court ruling over regulating NIL just a few weeks ago. If there’s an end to this in sight, someone show it to me.

Yep, while I get it, hopefully this buts a big chip on our guys shoulders this weekend.

Tytan Anderson not getting any recognition is... something. Hopefully this lights a explosive fire.

Guess Jake should be coach of the year, considering the lack of talent the league obviously thinks he has, yet still finishing Top 4 and getting a bye in St. Louis.
