Little Taipei is truly our nuclear option. No man alive can resist that goodness.

Big city class and culture with small town prices - Little Taipei. Where champions are made

If that place passes their health inspections without any uncovering of cockroaches I would be absolutely baffled. Great egg rolls, though.
 
Probably not the best place to post this but I don't want to start a thread.

Does anyone know if Fred is still holding a press conference tomorrow? I had heard rumors but I don't know that anything was ever confirmed.
 
Is Cyclone Insiders trolling or are they on to something?

that twitter handle is garbage.... trolls, promotes his own crap, and is aggressive.
 
See Travis Hines twitter feed. He said he blocked these guys months ago because they steal tweets.
In this case, they are just making this stuff up.

Trolling
 
This is so complicated. I think that you're right. There's so much out there (rumor or not) on TJ that I don't know that he'll settle for being just a lead recruiter any more, if they hire a mid-major coach. However, if we're saving money on the next hire (compared to what we would have been paying Fred) , one would hope a substantial raise to name TJ associate again would help keep him here. Especially if he loves it here, and him and his wife couldn't wait to come back home , like he claimed.
In fact, maybe we should test that claim (or check with Romar- jk)

Can't imagine any new HC would be wild about the ISU AD dictating who he has to have on his staff. If you don't trust your new HC to hire and fill out his staff with his people, you don't trust your new HC.
 
With interviews pending, is there any chance John Walters or CW could get permission to record the coach interviews and then depending on who is the successful candidate, there is a replay of the new coach's interview on either Cyclones TV or CF?
The only type of interview that I know of that gets recorded involves a "casting couch"... and that would definitely not benefit ISU basketball. **don't google casting couch, NSFW**

Then they can practice their "craft" without making the glorified CF mega threads even longer, less manageble and annoying than they already are?






Please move to a different forum if needed :jimlad:

With the staff that I've been told TJ will assemble makes me really hope he's our next HC.

Waiting for 501Clone to elaborate like:

That's just as bad as people acting like he deserves no blame for those teams. It's just odd that he recruited such amazing players but it never translated to wins. I think it just proves he's a competent recruiter, who can get the same caliber guys we are used at ISU, guys that a competent HC can win with (perhaps even himself) While that's all we need him to do, that doesn't make him this can't miss, recruiting genius. We will still continue to build our team with high 3*/low 4* recruits.

You are right, his history of being on mediocre programs gets blown out of proportion bc honestly, he doesn't have much to talk about as far as his coaching experience. That works the same way with his recruiting, we don't have a ton of positive things to say about either so he gets a little too much credit as a recruiter.

It is gunnerclone, best to read only for laughs at this point. Full jsb mode.

@ChrisMWilliams: Gregg Marshall. Niang smack. Hornacek’s agent. OUR PETS HEAD ARE FALLING OFF!!!!!!!! #CycloneCoachSearch2015
 
@ChrisMWilliams: Yesterday, #CycloneCoachSearch2015 was really ******* me off. Today, it’s kind of funny.
 
@ChrisMWilliams: For real, #cyclONEnation - we need to come up with an official hashtag for the coach search. Any good ideas?

Wgile you could be right, I think Fred has said that when he first met with Jamie, Fred made sure that TJ was going to stay on staff when Fred was hired. While some coaches may not want to be told who to hire, I think a majority of them would understand the importance of having a guy with TJ's background here for the first 1 or 2 years to bridge the gap.
