    Never felt better after a tournament loss

    Tired, tired, tired of these f cking Sweet Sixteen loses.

    Been watching non Big 12 basketball lately...

    I get that, but they're 2 games behind us in the conference and a 2-point, "half second" win for them at home doesn't seem that determinative to me. I suspect the conference tournament(s) are going to do some 'tweeking' to all of this seeding stuff.

    Been watching non Big 12 basketball lately...

    I honestly don't understand this hard-on the 'experts' have for Baylor and determination to give them a 2-seed instead of us. Because they "took Houston to overtime" at home? Drew has had some excellent teams lately, and certainly inside talent, but this one doesn't seem it to me.

    ISU VP of Finance & Operations Settlement

    Was just going to ask this -- which should be the first question anyone associated with this university should ask. But never does. "Consulting" -- not prostitution or life insurance -- is "the world's oldest profession."

    *** Official IOWA STATE vs DePaul Game(Day) Thread ***

    If we hit 65%+ of our free throws, I'll raise a 2-fingered glass of scotch. To myself.

    Will Iowa State make postseason play?

    "On paper" and in Hilton against cupcakes in Nov., a Sweet Sixteen. In reality and in the B12, prolly NIT.

    I was thinking Willoughby or Tyus or Barry Stevens. But Matt would be fine.

    It's a long season, college bb is, and it's only November. Not trying to convince anyone else of this -- just myself. I miss when ISU was known for shooters, instead of....well, the opposite.

    I don't understand teams that can be this bad offensively.

    Year 8, you say. Recruiting has improved under Campbell, you say.

    Scheelhasse oc

    My son lives in Savannah and is a passionate Georgia fan, has led me into, well, sort of one, too. I tend to watch GA and other SEC games every week (last Sat. wasn't so inspiring, but...), and this had made my ISU experience all the more miserable the past 2-3 years, if from a entertainment...

    ISU is 2-10 in last 12 games

    I have to wonder if this/these discussions would even be taking place, if Campbell had recruited even average college football field goal kickers. It's amazing to me how awful ISU's have been the past few years.

    Do you want Campbell gone?

    This is instructive. I see so many of these posts the past few years about how Campbell "recruits well." Umm. Na.

    Special teams are better. Other than the two missed field goals in a 10-7 loss. ...oh, wait.
