Jake Brend, Rob Gray, and Ben Hutchens break down the impact of Donovan Davis’ commitment and what T.J. Otzelberger’s dominance in Wisconsin means. The guys dig into ESPN’s article on Matt Campbell and what could’ve happened if he took the Lions job in 2021. Then the show finishes by “spinning the wheel” to tell Hutchens old Iowa State stories. Presented by Kelderman Manufacturing.

Any kind of social gathering of any kind, and I’m just anxious and stressed out and would like to crawl into a hole and disappear. Even family gatherings too when I know everyone.
But then you see all these studies about how everyone needs social interaction, and being a loner is not healthy at all.
But I’m perfectly happy when I’m alone. I read somewhere that there’s a big difference between being alone, and being lonely. I’m definitely not lonely at all. Thoughts?

Recently, I had the opportunity to give a TEDx talk. It’s something I’ve been working toward for a while, and more importantly, something I’ve been thinking about for much longer.
The talk centers on a simple idea:
That we may have misunderstood what “calling” really is—and in doing so, we sometimes aim at the wrong things.

If you do take a few minutes to watch, I’d genuinely value your perspective. Not just whether you liked it—but what resonated, what didn’t, or what felt worth thinking more about.
And if it brings someone else to mind who might find it meaningful, feel free to pass it along.
Not sure why they would do this. The women's tourney is already terrible since the top teams are so loaded and poor teams get destroyed by the top teams. Oh well. Guess I know the real reason. Money and they don't want to treat the women different. in my opinion they should have cut it down to around 48 teams.
The men's and women's NCAA basketball tournaments are expanding to 76 teams -- the largest increase for the men since 1985, and the first for the women since 2022.
Hello CF,
Our group is planning on attending the away game this season in Waco. I see that ISU just pushed out their email for away game tickets and figured I would come here first for suggestions. It looks as if Baylor jams away fans up in the corner of the stadium. Does anybody know if the alumni association does anything and Waco and if so will they be selling tickets?
With the regular season ending time the transfer announcements are starting thought it was time to start the tread.
Early indications are a lot of the roster that can return will which should be a top 25 team. Still losing Tamin and Joshua means there are roster spots to fill and should be attractive to a couple of players that fit Cyclones MBB.
One thread to post and discuss potential additions to next years roster.

For someone that loved to toot his own horn he has been silent for years. I have no idea if he had dementia or if he truly just stepped away from public life as I had read.
I hope all Cyclone wrestling fans appreciate how transparent and honest KD is in his interviews. Specifically calling out individuals who need to step it up/do their job etc. If you follow college wrestling you know how incredibly rare that is today, so give him credit there.
Just my 2 cents, see everyone in section 113 Friday night!
looking to buy a Drone. I don't want anything crazy. Just a starter drone with a camera so I can see if I like it. Anyone mess with these things or have a good kind to buy for a low price? Thanks for any help
With Donovan Davis committing to Iowa State, Randy Peterson takes a look at the Wisconsin-to-Ames pipeline and just how deep it runs. Some pretty good names on that list, and a hypothetical all-Wisconsin Cyclones team that would be tough to beat.

Figured this could use its own thread. Welcome to Ames, Drake! Excited to see how he can recruit and coach our lightweights!

I was just recently thinking back to one of the best blockers ever for Iowa State, Kelvin Cato. He played 2 years at Iowa State and was dominant, before heading to the NBA. Take a look at his stats and this old video on him. Click here.
Hearing the stories of Harrison Barnes and his college announcement got me thinking of what would have happened if the 07-08 season doesn't end 14-18 with 3 future NBA guys. If we somehow make the tournament and things are looking up, Wes Johnson stays and recruits his buddy Jimmy Butler to follow him to Iowa State that could start a domino effect for Iowa State basketball. The next three years could be something special
08-09:
Garret
Stiager/Petersen/Butler - follows Wesley here
Johnson - doesn't transfer
Brackins
Vanderbeken/Hamilton
09-10:
Garret
Butler
Johnson
Brackins
Hamilton - doesn't transfer
10-11:
Garret
Butler
McDermott - McDermott stays and his son follows
Harrison - the last two years of ISU basketball have been something special and he decides to stay home
Hamilton
Would 09-10 or 10-11 be better?? You get Brackins with Johnson and Butler but Harrison with a McDermott, Butler, and senior Garret would be amazing.
