    ***2026-27 Mens College Basketball Thread***

    I suppose the intent is to "protect" 1 & 2 as much as possible, but I don't know if it's that much better at doing so than the traditional format, and hard to know if it'll matter if MVC does have seasons when there's legit at-large contention. It could be worse, though, for the "sprawl"...

    Hardest to watch next season.

    This is an x-factor that makes it even more difficult for sure. If any/all were 1st or 2nd year who showed lots of potential and had impact as part of good teams, but not as much of a focal point of success, maybe it's easier to shrug (something similar to Tyrese Hunter, in general sense).

    Hardest to watch next season.

    I know several people noted they aren't going to "actively" watch, and I agree, but I interpret the OP more as "appearing in a different uniform," because even if you don't seek the games, we're going to see them in highlights/recaps. My first reaction was to choose Milan, but that's probably...

    ***2026 NCAA Baseball Tournament***

    Best-case scenario for "final 4," mainly pro-Big 12 and minimal SEC/BiG: (16) West Virginia (5) North Carolina (15) Kansas (11) Oregon If XII isn't getting there, I'd pull for Cal Poly and St. John's as "other" options.

    ***2026-27 Mens College Basketball Thread***

    Going beyond the intrastate aspect of it, that frames a question/makes me curious as far as mid-majors // "semi-high-mids." How would a place like Miami-OH, or programs in leagues like A-10, American and new-MWC get interest to schedule-up with a P4/5, without low-balling its own budget...

    ***2026-27 Mens College Basketball Thread***

    I can’t remember the "status" of ISU being open to UNI/Drake at Hilton maybe on rotating basis? I know doing any home/away is pretty much off the board (and no argument from me). If those programs would agree to that or want to pursue, would all parties be OK with it? I wouldn't mind that...

    Milan Momcilovic commits to Kentucky

    It'll be a drag to see the draft board w/ Kentucky next to his name, and draft day announcement of "Milan Momcilovich, from Kentucky," won't be any direct mention of Iowa State.

    Williams & Blum: Congress vs. College Sports, Momcilovic Gone & Texas Tech Fires Back

    We appreciate that you appreciate the feedback. I haven't listened to this pod yet. I agree there's no way to ignore some of the negative that is related to ISU and it so happens to be taking place simultaneously. I suppose the challenge is to find a balance between current-impact (pos, neg...

    That was a biggie! Side question: What is up with those WV uniforms? Ick.

    CF After Dark Draft: Best Single game FB performances

    That has to be in my top 10-ish of "unexpected results for victory" in modern ISU FB history (I'll defined as previous 50 years or so). Winning it? I don't think that would have been a shock, Iowa State was somewhat close/almost in quite a few games that season, but winning by 56 wouldn't have...

    CF After Dark Draft: Best Single game FB performances

    As @demoncore noted in response, that's one that completely slipped my mind. Recap from cyclones.com: https://cyclones.com/news/2008/11/1/1616072

    CF After Dark Draft: Best Single game FB performances

    Did they use Jayden Higgins, 214 yards vs. Memphis 2023?

    Football traditions.

    I believe so.
