Just say getting him allowed to play that last year in Indiana wasn't easy.

There are also academic progress requirements that can rear their head for a player that spends much more than the 10 semesters AND restrictions on the number of schools a player can transfer to but those are truly confusing and they seem more than a bit arbitrary.

Re: Iup basketball
Interesting, I'm wondering why there has been no announcement of the suspension? Could it be drugs?

Re: Iup basketball
So, when you look at the IUP page on Verbal Commits and scroll over Dom Keyes' name ... it says his status is 'suspended'.
Being that we know factually he's still enrolled ... and that the current roster only shows 9 scholarship players (and Dante knocks the hit on the bank account down to 8) ... wonder if we'll see Mr. Keyes at some point this year? It is weird, however, that he's totally removed from the official roster.
I guess we'll know soon enough.

Re: Iup basketball
For whatever it's worth (not much) ... IUP is picked third in the Street and Smith's national preseason poll.
Jacobo Diaz is preseason first team All-American.
He's joined by Tommy Bolte of Concord. The two square off opening night.
Virginia State (game 2) is preseason No. 7

Re: Iup basketball
You follow the smoke ...
Keyes is still here and enrolled.
He has a year in the system already (of practice).
His timeline is:
1 year at UPJ
1 year at Harford
Redshirt at IUP
He was in the rotation plans as of July.
That is the odd part, though. If it is grades they'd have known by then.
Who knows. We need Tony to update us in the Gazette (if Joe allows) ... lol.

Re: Iup basketball
Out of curiosity ...
You said 'trying to get eligible' .... how does that work?
If you are ruled academically ineligible are you lost for a full semester? Mid-term grades?
Or, in football, a whole season (as it is only a one semester season)?

Originally posted by IUPbigINDIANS View PostBurns was a nice player but, regardless if she left or was asked to leave, I think she saw the writing on the wall with Carolyn Appleby arriving. She wasn't going to start over Appleby.
Anyway, I'm not sure how Joe's redshirting of transfer imports led to a Mo Burns discussion.
Regardless, ...
Dom Keyes is still at IUP (and was all summer) -- further making this all the more odd. He was also mentioned in the Gazette summer article. So, something happened between that article and the day the roster got posted. The team also doesn't appear to be at max scholarships anymore unless he's kicking some money to the walk-ons (doubtful).
Still not sure we have the whole story -- and/or roster, yet. There's likely somebody we don't know about yet or a planned mid-year transfer. I'm leaning toward the latter.

Originally posted by IUPbigINDIANS View PostYeah ... that story goes a little deeper. I'll leave it at that. I'm not so sure I'd say Mo Burns 'left' the program.

Re: Iup basketball
Originally posted by IUPbigINDIANS View PostBonifacio, Tomer and Nkumsah were all true freshmen. That's a different animal. I'm referring to redshirting transfer imports. Two times in a row it backfired tremendously.
Blake Danielak got the redshirt. Before long that season IUP had a walk-on starting (CJ Rudisill). Dom Keyes got the redshirt last year on a team that couldn't defend air against a legit post player. On top of it the season got pis$ed away once adversity struck with absolutely no bench. Keyes is a legit post defender. Instead Joe insisted on playing Blake out of position down there. I think we all saw how that worked. You get away with that stuff against Clarion types. However, that could also be why this program has won just one NCAA game in three years, too (and missed two tournaments).
