      Great article for people that refuse to understand Brooks' value.

      People are not going to realize how much Brooks did until he is gone next year... I feel bad for the rath that Kwadzo is going to take on this board after he has a game where his inexperience shows...

              Hopefully, I am not interrupting Brett and Marc's attempt to show that they are much more logical than the rest of us.

              As far as the article goes, I thought it was a pretty good read. Something tells me if we win 3 in St Louis, Brooks is going to be the MVP and score 15 plus for us. We all know this guy can score if he needs to, and hopefully he gets hot this weekend.

              My favorite moment in UNI history.....Brooks hits the 3 in Milwaukee to give us the lead over Georgia Tech. I about fell over the railing at the arena when that went down.

                Ever the optimist. I'm with ya! I don't expect this team to go down without a fight. My thanks wasn't a "goodbye", but rather in response to the article. Brooks made me a Panther fan, but I'm afraid you are all stuck with me now.

                  An experienced point guard is a true luxury for a coach & team. Lets everyone play close to their potential. A four year starter is invaluable, especially on the road. I think this will be our biggest loss next year.

                    I'm not the world's biggest Brooks fan, but you can't deny how important he is to the team. Agree 100% '70 Grad. With the way Grant has played down the stretch, we've plenty to replace him (no disrespect intended) on the bench. Brooks will be difficult.

                    But . . . hopefully in four years we'll be reading a similar article about Kwadzo.

                          Brooks has an amazing mind for basketball - he knows the game inside and out. If you watch him closely you can see the leadership on the team that he provides - and the intensity and love for the game. Fans get very attached to the athletes they watch week in/week out, and Brooks is another UNI athlete who will be greatly missed!

                            Don't be surprised if Brooks is still around next year. He is going to make a great coach someday, probably starting as a grad asst. next year. Don't know that there will be an opening at UNI for that, maybe somewhere else in the state.

                              Brooks

                              He's a gamer. I too remember the shot in Milwaukee. I remember too that he's a team player. Note that I didn't say I "remembered." His career isn't over. Look forward to St. Louis.
