Good news. I like the fact that these kids are coming back because they feel that they have some unfinished business.

Their right they do and veteran teams win NCAA titles.

Wow.

Just waiting on Lee and Toews now.

Unfortunately I don't think those two will be as positive of news, but anything's possible.

Thanks for coming back for another year, Joe!!

Excellent points.

[Siouxfan_inDenver]

That is Awesome!

[Let'sGoHawks!]

Great news. I think we will see a stronger, better Finley this fall.

I'm glad Big Joe is coming back, I'm sure livestoplaywithhimself's blood pressure is going to go off the scale now.

Maybe right now.

However, if Lee stays, then these "fans" have Kozek, Kaip, Finley, Lee, and LaPoint to bash all year. Maybe they can find room to bash other players based upon statistical and respect-based "problems."

Great to see Big Joe back.

Very true, and for the record, I happen to enjoy watching all of the aforemetioned players.

So do I. My problem is biting my tongue whenever the "haters" show up.

I don't worry about those guys, like I said, they stick their foot in their mouths so many times that their credibility goes right down the toilet. (The ironic twist here is that they probably have a job cleaning toilets!)

Great news indeed. It is interesting to see him say that he came here to win a national championship. Let's hope that Toews and Lee have the same thoughts.

I second that.

[U2Bad1]

Sioux fans are in a win-win situation. If either Lee or Toews come back it's gravy. If they leave they were expected to leave anyway and the sioux already have a ton of talent coming back and some very good talent coming in.

[Goon]

I second that.

I saw we all text message them.

[U2Bad1]

Toews just text messaged me from the world championships to tell me he hasn't made a decision yet... i'll keep you all posted.

[Trunk Monkey]

Welcome back Joe! Next year is going to be fun to watch...

[sioux7>5]

I am glad to see that Finley is returning to play for number 8. I just hope that all these guys coming back will influence Toews to return.

What exactly does this have to do with the topic of "Finley returning."

What exactly does this have to do with the topic of "Finley returning."

Nothing...so?

[THETRIOUXPER]

Nothing...so?

Just saying, the topic is "Joe returning," not who was on the radio this morning. It's probably worthy of it's own thread.

[luapsided]

I don't ever recall this type of thing happening before, at least for the fighting sioux. Im so use to players leaving after their first or second year, and not newpaper articles saying that such and such a player is going to stay another year(at least not more than one player anyways ).........This coud make for some intereting news (obviously now to) down the road if the team really can open up a can of whoop-a$$. The fact that these drafties are sticking around to show what they are made of and how a team can truely develope together is awesome!

All the other years, and being a broke college student, its so hard to commit to the final five and especially the frozen four, not wanting to pay a ton of money and not being able to watch my team. But the way things are going, I think I could make my decision now. BACK iN BLACK!!!

Yeah... cause I couldnt go through every single thread here and count at least 50% of it having nothing to do with the topic So might as well continue the siouxsports tradition.
