If CF continues to post each abandonment on social media platforms, I won't be part of that indiscretion. It's ok to advertise CF as the source of portal activity, but when there are 10 times more single posts of people leaving vs what's coming in, that's just plain stupid social media strategy. It depicts Iowa State in a VERY poor manner. Put another way, it in no way is helping Iowa State or the new coach. Use some class, discretion and/or restraint and do what's best for Iowa State.

Someone who’s technologically inclined should build an Iowa State Follow Tracker on X (Twitter), similar to what Penn State fans already have.
This account tracks who the Penn State football staff follows in real time — great for recruiting/staff intel.
Example: https://x.com/psu_tracker?s=21&t=BQbK-bwn2G-DA0bl70P4GA
Would be an awesome tool for Cyclone fans.

Alternatively:
The social media story about the Cyclone exodus is a fantastic advertisement telling any dissatisfied players across the country there is P4 playing time and NIL cash to be had in Ames.
No I mean every practice is recorded.
Practices are recorded and are usually watched the next day by coaches and players to correct their mistakes from practice.
Idk my buddies and me have been saying since we were in school back in 07-11'.
And Bruce is still the ONLY ISU Football Coach with three consecutive seasons of 8 or more wins (1976-7-8).
When am i going to get payed my NIL as a fan? After praying, thinking, and consulting, I have decided to enter the transfer portal. I thank ISU athletics for the joy they have brought me, and wish them luck in the future. I am commiting to ohio state.
You understand that at SDSU he could have as many players as Iowa State it was just he could only offer 63 scholarships, but they could offer 1/2 scholarships so they technically could have more on scholarship than 63?
I respect your perspective, but all-the-same it'll only post on those that follow CF. So, I 'unfollowed' CF on FB. I'll wait until fall cause daily exposure is depressing. I'll poke my head in here once in awhile.
Difference is CFP. Chizek didn’t have to negotiate a playoff to get his Natty. Matt’s going to have to go .500 against the best 4 teams on his schedule, not stub his toe against any others, and win three or four games against top teams. Not impossible, but a tough road. But I get the point. It would be sooo Iowa State
I generally try not to bash players too much... but have always had no problem criticizing coaches since they get paid a ton of money. But now with players getting paid to win also.... one could make the argument they can be criticized too.
In today's game... I don't have a big issue with criticizing players for dropping a pass in their hands, or fumbling, etc... as long as it doesn't get personal. I've looked at it this way... if I were a player and I fumbled, I would criticize myself too, so why wouldn't fans? But any fan throwing out personal insults to players is going way too far. I apologize to any players if in the heat of a game I ever got personal.
Both are better than any of our starting LBs last year? Like Bacon and McLaughlin for example? Or Brezina?
If so... that would be great!! I trust you if you've looked at film. Both are kinda short, right? Both 6'1" I think, right?
I learned this lesson long ago and it has served me well: “Anytime you don’t know the answer to something, the answer is usually MONEY.” No doubt some looking for playing time or don’t fit CJR’s schemes, but the vast majority have an agent in their ear. Players know Iowa State’s NIL limitations. That’s it.
I wonder if New Mexico RB Damon Bankston can somehow get a 6th year of eligibility. Would be a nice addition after their RB coach gets hired.
I won't say I know any of the WSU guys well. But our linebacker group, as a whole, has not been good for awhile now. Won't take much to upgrade that position.
It is the new normal. You get to be mad at a new set of players every year. Maybe not 40, but enough good players to get some riled up annually.
Truth. Until he hits CFP. And, Matt has always found a unique way to lose a game or two he should have won
