Well done commish.

LIVE STATS

Watching Duke-Arkansas right now and saw this stat. Let's keep this going.

Here is part 2 of the quiz. Maybe a couple you won't know the number because it's too easy? We will see. Take the quiz now.

I listen to podcasts on YouTube music usually. The last few days when I check the CF feed there, it's completely empty, no podcasts at all. Has anyone else had this problem?

Is signing up and paying for FloSports the only way to view the game on Friday? Or does anyone know of a restaurant or sportsbar in the Cedar Rapids area that will be carrying the game?

I might be stuck with the Varsity App.

Jake Brend, Ben Hutchens and Rob Gray sit down to react to Iowa State's first two wins in the Players Era Festival, share some frustrations of the tournament in Las Vegas and rank the top five wins of the T.J.

Plus, a CyHawk Wrestling preview and a quick hit on Bill Fennelly's team playing in the Coconut Hoops Tournament.
