It finally happened CF! All the scattershot speculation that this player or that player should come back to coach at ISU has finally payed off!
Seriously though, good for them!

Kempt, Lanning join ISU Football coaching staff
- Thread starter CysRage
- Start date
The mud is only wet out of anticipation of having Joel's finger in it...
It’s obviously a low tier position but I don’t think there are as many really low pay jobs anymore. Like, I don’t think they’ll be at the poverty level.

No, I don't think it's minimum wage or anything like that but I'm guessing for a guy like Kempt who's armed with a degree in Computer Science there were more than a couple better paying gigs available.
And for the hours they'll be expected to put in it's not going to feel like all that much. I've never coached but from everything I've heard and read as a fan someone on a coaching staff routinely puts in 10+ hour days seven days a week during the season. And the lower you are on the totem pole the harder you have to work.
For some reason I don’t recall what you are talking about with the WV game
I was probably the only one bothered by it. But after splitting time against tech and Lanning getting 5 TDs, Lanning only saw the field once against WV and scored a TD that was called back. Park wasn’t exactly killing it on offense either. The only explanation I could come up with was campbell wanting to run him off.
Campbell later said he maybe didn’t handle it well.
It would be real nice for the program if we started having both more guys playing on Sunday (started that up with David and Hakeem, check) and more guys associated with the program, either former players/GAs/assistant coaches, becoming well-regarded assistant and eventually head coaches in their own right. Seems we are on that track.
So when are Georges, Naz, and that crew going to come back as assistants?

I’m going to say that I think that the future coach in basketball will be Naz. I’m not so sure if Georges will even want to do it. But I’d bet money that Naz is s coach at some point.
Remember when Naz talked to the team after the won the Big 12 tournament...?
That was some Hoosiers stuff there. You cannot teach that kind of leadership and poise.
Could you imagine Naz as a recruiter...?
I am glad these guys are having professional success and making money as player but, my oh my, there is a unique and special set of personalities attached to that era that you can imagine as coaches (and the same way we are starting to develop that with football).
I think you're right. As much as I'd love to see Georges roaming the sideline for the Cyclones someday, I think he'd be a hell of a broadcaster or in-studio guy with his personality.
If someone's acting up they go bare-knuckles with Joel is my guess.
Glad they are part of the program but also a bit sad. Kempt has better options available for him but if it's what he wants to do... Hoped that Joel got more of a chance to play.
