Grabbed a leftover waffle for a late breakfast, maybe will be lunch just a bit ago. What is your go to addition? I like raspberry or cherry pie filling. Butter? Syrup? Syrup but a different flavor than regular maple? Whipped cream?

What do you put on your waffle?
Maple syrup. An underrated topping is peanut butter.

Our approach on offense last year was simple --

Some Purdy read-option
Throw it deep to Butler
Most of all, hand it to Montgomery

What is the elevator pitch for our offense next season?

Not exactly sure.
Does cheese whiz actually contain any dairy product?

Per wiki:

Cheez Whiz is one of a number of "processed cheese foods", a category including some types of individually wrapped cheese slices. These products contain regular cheese that has been reprocessed along with additional ingredients such as emulsifiers and stabilizing agents, such as xanthan gum or carrageenan, and derive their tanginess and flavor from additional ingredients such as citric acid and flavoring compounds. Annatto is used for coloring.

I'm sure I've missed something somewhere, but since Griffin has been so underused, wouldn't it have made sense to redshirt him? Just wondering what's going on there.

Hardly anyone redshirts any more. I think he's going to be a player, but the only thing really going on is that Coach Prohm doesn't like to go beyond 8 deep (and sometimes 7). He's just behind a very, very good bunch of players.

Not trying to be argumentative, but 6 of the players on the ISU roster have taken a redshirt.

So the son was OK since he had broken up. But now I have a follow up. Have a second date lined up this weekend and she said she will just come over and after dinner just watch a movie.

She said she will bring the toppings, cool whip, chocolate syrup and cheese whiz. I figure she wants ice cream sundaes but am totally confused with the cheese whiz. Do people put cheese on ice cream? What flavor should I get that goes with that?

Added the bolded above.
And he dealt with a couple minor injuries throughout the season too if I remember correctly.

Due to transferring, except for Lard late qualifying. Zion was needed in spot minutes early in the year when we had 8 available.

He’s likely closer than his minutes suggest, but when you zealously like to play only 7, there aren’t a lot of opportunities to demonstrate that (or develop).

If he can shoot the 3, play defense, and rebound, there are a lot of minutes available to him next year.

What would be a bigger accomplishment- NCAA Basketball Final Four Appearance or making it into an expanded 8-team College Football Playoff?

My vote goes to football. Teams can fall into favorable seeding scenarios in the March Madness. Plus, one great player can carry a team to a Final Four (it's still not easy), but you need more than that for football.

It's more common for a team to fall off following a FF appearance than a CFB Playoff appearance.

Congrats on the sex.

Players want to keep that redshirt year available in case they transfer.

Is there a difference between not playing and redshirting?

Zion didn’t redshirt because there were minutes available for him due to injury, but take Carter or J Long for example. Say they had redshirted their lowest minutes played season. The difference in their first eligible year at their new school, as a redshirt junior either way, is 14 minutes and 40 minutes of experience, respectively.

Do they call it a "waffle" now.?
