Dendy is back on campus

[2forISU]

I don't blame Dendy for not wanting to come back.

[marothisu]

So put him in a communications class

[Goldfinger]

I plan on finding out.

well part of it was that originally his plane ticket was for a Wednesday return. Iowa State can pay for the ticket out and back, but when the funeral got moved back to Thursday( I assume because of weather), the return ticket was no longer valid and NCAA rules don't allow Iowa State to exchange it for another one. So Dendy had to pay for his return flight. That along with weather delays may have had something to do with the mess-up of getting back here on time.

Either way Laron is a grown man and he did let his teammates down by not getting back as soon as possible. IF it was out of his control, then I'm sure the team understands.

Let's hope he leaves! Along with Craig and Gil and throw in DG as well. Hell they all suck, we'd be better without them all!

Do you guys just sit around and think up more things to ***** about. Hell Lafester sucked for 3 years but I was glad he was there for the 4th. Michael Nurse sucked his first year here but we wouldn't have made it the the final 8 without him.

I live for the day we have the patience to have 4 guys that have been there 4 years and 4 guys that have been there 3 years. We go so excited to run people off. ....It's a ******* GAME!

Yes, they do, however he did not notify the right people in time so they could not do it. That is what I think. I doubt they would have been able to buy him another one. Even if they could have, I wouldn't have.

Yes they do - Mac said so yesterday. He said had Dendy bothered to call Iowa State after he learned of the funeral delay, Iowa State could have gotten a return flight ticket to him. The problem was Dendy had to inform them prior to the time of his return flight, and he didn't do that.

No offense but how did this kid get into college? Maybe there should be an academic review done here as well. It could open up a scholarship....

Maybe he was a little distracted by the whole mourning with family thing?

I take offense to the Michael Nurse sucking comment. He was hit by a truck and came back and played within a week. He had one of the greatest performances ever while coming off the bench and beating western illinois in a great game. While limping with stitches in.

I think he was probably referring to the year before, when he was forced to play point guard. He was not very good in that role.

Completely awesome as a shooting guard, though, and no one questions his toughness, having taken on a car and still played!

Yeah... that must have been it. Didn't know was necessary. If I bad mouth his free throw shooting you can take that as my honest opinion though.

Thank you! exactly my point. I believe LE was even trying to push him out.

I hope someday, when a family member of yours dies, a bunch of people who do know you from jack don't start judging how you should act and what you should do. Too many of you are expecting Dendy to act how you want him rather than respecting what is going on in his life. Do you really think with him there we were going to be KU?

Heck I would like to see Coach Mac get this pationate while coaching a game.

Sorry. I'll probably join in on the FT shooting.

I plan on finding out.

Are you going to share it with us or just keep it to yourself.

[Clonefan32]

I think everyone is being a little hard on the kid.

This...er wait, I cant say that anymore. I concur.
