    Re: Cougill Rumor

    doesnt success at kirkwood translate reasonably well? jermain davis was decent at iowa, so was bryan petersen at ISU. we know how Ali turned out. heck, even Corey Viet was an excellent NAIA player.

      But from a reliable source, is there is such a thing, UNI is definitely looking at him.
      He is averaging 14 points and 9 rebounds a game. highest points average on the team that is ranked fifth in the nation.

      How is that a lack of production? Seems like good numbers to me. I think if the coaches like what they see and find room for him somehow then I would welcome him in a panther uniform.

      He is a big body who wants to play the post. He knows how to rebound with 9 a game. Get this he can even score a basket once in while. Kirkwood plays a lot of quality teams with future and past d-1 talent.

      If I were coaching the panthers I would be looking at him for sure.

        "Lack of production" at Iowa. Started 31 games, averaged 4 pts and 3 rebounds? Sure he was a freshman, but he was a starter.

        Yes he does average 14 pts and 10 boards a game at Kirkwood, and yes there have been some good players come out of that college. But if you have ever watched a Juco basketball game, the defense is a far cry from the kind of defense played in the Valley. The last time he has played against defense anywhere close to Valley defense he produced the stats above. I would still say taking Cougill would be taking a huge risk. Make him earn the scholarship.

          4 pts is a lot in a Lickliter offense.

          Its just my opinion but I think Cougill would make us better and give us a true post option.

            He only started 7 games.

            I think Cougill is a little overrated and always has been. But there is no question that he would improve UNI's current post game.

              That is true. UNI's current post game is what you would call minimal I would say.

              I really have confidence in Tuttle. Talking to the coaches and people around the program he reminds them of Grant Stout. Hopefully he can fill those shoes. If Koch improves as much as big bro did from Sophomore to Junior year and Chip plays like he did a couple games this year for the entire season. We will be just fine down low.

                Brennan i smuch better than some of the current UNI so called bigs on the roster. I saw him play a LOT last year at Kirkswood and he is a monster. Did his business down low and not at three points line like at Iowa.

                            Alright there is a lot of terrible English (even for a message board) including smuch,and i, but mainly the fact that he saw him play a LOT at Kirkswood last year. Two things with that, he claims to live in Texas, and last year Brennan played at Iowa, I know you could say that he was referring to 2011 but I really don't think he was.

                              I was confused how he could live in Texas but watch a lot of his games at Kirkswood too, but was going to let that slide.
