I don't want to call out names but a couple true freshman could leave b/c they played like crap. Daow is not one of them .. the other two looked useless out there.

Monty certainly is going to have to answer questions pertaining to MSU he was there. He also probably has to answer questions on Dawkins kids scandal. The FBI is involved, they are going to talk to Lou Dawkins. Naturally where Lou has coached would be looked at( NIU&Monty) that’s just seems like a natural place to look to me.

I’m sure they are leaving.

Are you referring to the freshmen statement or the Monty statement??

Freshman statement,I believe you are right on about them

To clear up the contract speculation, Monty has two years left! Seasons 2018-19 and season 2019-20. That would be 600 thousand left!

STF and staff better have one hell of a Victor E Ball. If Monty isn’t gone it shows just how bad of a situation the athletic department and school are in.

STF better hit the powerball.

Is Daow gone? I think he could be real good.

There is no money! In good times there is around only 20-30 schools that don’t lose money on Athletics.

I assume money/years left on contract won't matter if they can find a way to terminate for cause.

Bradley isn’t graduating before next season so he would have to sit a year and then play his final year. Doesn’t seem like he would do that. German plays, practices everyday night and day doesn’t seem like he could sit. Everyone else I could see them leaving mostly because of their role also Lacey James can’t leave and sit out again.

Let's wait to see who is leaving so we don't overreact. Often there's a reason that explains why a kid would want to transfer and it isn't the conclusion everyone wants to jump to.

Must be a great guy to play for, players seem to love him

I questioned the coaches approach previously and got bashed

To bad we cant afford the cleanse we need

How many players have to leave for people to consider MAYBE THE COACH IS THE PROBLEM!

222, you seem to have some inside knowledge from the coaching staff at times, if you have some now how bad is it? No looking for speculation just facts.

How low can this program go?

I could see Henry-Hayes and Thomas leaving.

I have no idea who if any are leaving but it sounds like some are. As everyone knows I was a Monty supporter, apologist but after hearing some things I no longer am!!!

I will also add, I’am currently questioning my support of NIU Athletics!

This has to be one of the worst years of NIU atheletics in a long time.
Most teams have had a really poor year.

Can't wait for this to shake out. Maybe we'll get rid of STF and Monty in one swoop. Best case scenario would be to fire Monty with cause and reboot. Again.

Yep. I really hope they go after someone with Chicago ties.
