Which cup holder belongs to the driver?

Have to figure out how to post it!!!

Hi everyone!

I have been working on this story all week. I've written it and rewritten it 100x. I had Randy Peterson read it for me too because I needed it to be as close to perfect as I could. Yonger's story is so special to me because his story IS special. It's been such an incredible journey not only as a reporter but just as a fan. He's been so entertaining to watch even from his early matches when he was learning folkstyle and how to get out from bottom (lol).

But most importantly, as a person. I've watched him truly transform in interviews. I will find those early interviews but he's just so different in all the best ways because it goes to show how he became comfortable and began to find himself in this new world he calls home.

I hope you all love it and I hope those who don't know Yonger and are casual fans that like to pop in sometimes read it and learn something about the special heavyweight who leaves a huge impact on all who have had the privilege of getting to know him.

Hey, long time premium subscriber and no longer have access to the premium boards and am seeing ads. Wondering if something is up with my subscription?

Amazing career and good luck to whatever the future holds. Hopefully it's still at ISU.

I'm very curious for those of you in Chicago. What is the report? I've searched on X and the BookFace some before and after the game on fan posts and not seeing much from their fans. Are they giant aholes like the Kentucky fans or better? More appreciative and cordial I hope.

Where will he be drafted? Saw on ESPN that KC could take him in the 4th round. Not a Chiefs fan, but good for him.

A small fire south of Britt Iowa today. 400,000 plus birds will die. That is a small number of laying hens , but sounds like a lot.

I’m local to Chicago so pumped for Friday, would have gone no matter where it is but I’m expecting a home game against TN/UVA.

If you are watching this Purdue vs. Arizona game, I want you to watch the Purdue offense. Look how they play inside out by getting the ball to Cluff and having MULTIPLE shooters spaced wide. They also run a lot of zoom actions to get the guards full speed to attack the hoop or get some space for a shot. These are super efficient because if the defender goes over the screen, the guard drives; if they go under, the guard shoots. They run staggered screens with usually two screens to get open Fletcher Loyer and it WORKS. I am tired of running mainly pistol sets over and over and over again. All of this to say that Nate Schmidt has to go and some new offense has to be installed because it simply isn't good enough to make it past the S16. Curious on anybody's thoughts on this.

Catching up with videos from before and after the game.

I found it very interesting that Rick Barnes talked so much about the importance of an AD who understands the changes in the game. It was hard to tell exactly what he meant, but he certainly said all the "right things" about his appreciation of the role of football for an athletic department.

It was also interesting to hear him talk about how "I love practice . . . I could have practices 4 hours a day 7 days a week." His proficiency with practices was on display with his team's performance on Friday.

Obviously tough end to the season, but wanted to give shout-outs to all the seniors for a great year.

Dom Nelson: Appreciate you staying ready despite not playing a lot during the season. Played some good minutes in the tourney for us. Thanks for being a Cyclone!

Eric Mulder: You made that 3, that was fun! Thanks for being a Cyclone!

Nate Heise: Dawg. Dirty work guy. Does whatever needs to be done. Stepped up in the tournament the last 2 years for us. Probably the most under appreciated player I can remember. Thanks for be a Cyclone!

JJeff: Such a well rounded player, if you would have told me he'd be an all American when he came here I wouldn't have believed it. Sucks how he went down, I know he did everything he could to get ready, and appreciate everything he gave us. Thanks for being a Cyclone!

Tamin Lipsey: Captain. Role Model. Iowa State basketball. We don't have the sustained success the last 4 years without him. Not sure anyone has given more of their body to a team like Tamin has. Hang the jersey. Thanks for being Mr. Cyclone!

Training camps right around the corner:

Questions for CyFan Premium peeps:

1. Does Premium have its own forums and game day threads?
2. Does it have less popup ads?
3. Do the Game Day threads have less trolls in it than the non paid?

I have noticed a RAPID decline in the CyFan experience in the last year. Pop up ads that make the site nearly unusable. Even worse, a handful of posters who are clearly not Cyclone fans that take this from what-used-to-be a fun site to a not fun site--specifically Darius Bieber, cmhawks99, and GoSTATE71.
