Halo system link.....those were the days. 10-12 hour marathon chugging mountain dew, eating pizza/chips without a care in the world.@NorthCyd
I had a sleepover with my friends and my brothers' friends when I was a teenager. You know, the standard sort of stuff at the time... lotta Halo multiplayer with a side of Pokémon Stadium.
Eventually late we all went to bed and went home the next morning.
A few weeks later, my father is furious at me and my brother for PPVing (for like $2.99, the Boomer was strong with that one) a film called something like Naughty Nightcall Nurses.
We were confused and denied it strenuously. Neither of us would have done anything so easy to catch. But we checked the date. It corresponded with the sleepover. We thought to ourselves...
OH **** JUSTIN WENT TO BED AN HOUR AFTER EVERYBODY ELSE!!!
Of course we told EVERYBODY. And he, to his credit, apologized and reimbursed us.
But we never let him live it down.
Donovan Davis announced on May 6th that he committed to the Cyclones!!!
- Thread starter LLCoolCY
- Start date
Round out the class with Ann or Kohnen that is likely a top 5 class.

The hardest gaming accomplishment of my life was beating the Halo 2 campaign on legendary co-op with my brother's friend. Took us roughly the 10-12 hours you mentioned. We died a million times.
Seems ridiculous now, but we hadn't figured out the plasma pistol overcharge/BR "noob combo." We had to do things the hard way. Did it later once we figured it out and it took about a fifth as long.
Yeah, those days were the days.

Oh yeah…. duh!! I should have realized that…. my bad. Thanks for the correction!
That second paragraph feels like a random word generator with a lot of fake words.
In '64, they told me if I voted for Goldwater in two years we'd be neck-deep in Vietnam.
And they were right.
I voted for Goldwater.
And two years later, we were neck-deep in Vietnam.
And like we must faster as he won’t have to be wearing those God offer long shorts
@FinalFourCy good point re: five to play five.
You'd kind of have a logjam at that point, though, if it happens.
Up to 15 returning men (including Prather, Bond, Manning, and Buchanan) plus two freshmen.
Obviously it will work out in the end, but a few things would need to change.

Really like both those guys long term. Good athletes with size for the guard/wing.
I’m guessing we’d really try to retain Buchanan. We can only hope it’s true on the others as well.
Looking at the pipeline without that curveball, 2-3 position have a lot of prospects. But merely from an entertainment standpoint, as in reality so much will change in two years
Wish we could count on having players stay for their college career. If so, we would have some great teams in the next few years. We still may, but just have to rebuild every time someone leaves. Fortunately, we seem to have a coach who just plows ahead to success, whichever path it requires. So blessed!!
This offseason has gone as well as can be expected outside of Milan moving on. T.J. getting every single one of the key guys he brought in for visits and the T.J. extension. This is now a top basketball program, maybe not elite but very high second tier which is great for Iowa State.
This is a young team too, we could quite possibly get multiple years out of this group.

It’ll be interesting to see where we go now. Harrington and Davis are obviously huge commitments. Either Baboucarr Ann or Jack Kohnen would be awesome, but in this landscape, I wonder if we get conservative now, considering we will likely need some cash next year for retention purposes.
Other than Hunter, we’ve done well in retaining players.
WI board saying $800k for Davis. If he’s starter level in two years as a freshman, that’s not too bad of rate. Hopefully helping to retain him for sophomore jump.
The key difference between those times and now is feeling human the next day. Not possible anymore. Miss 30 minutes of sleep and it takes two days to recover.
Hunter really didn’t want to be here regardless. TJ is like a second father to most of his players. It’s no wonder they stick around and we never hear of nonsense in the locker room.
