    Looks like I was wrong on what CMC would do.

    Suspensions

    You could be right. I just think coach values his integrity more than a game against an out of conference opponent. I won't be disappointed if he plays them as it helps the team's chances to win. However, I don't think it's a good reflection on character development.

    Suspensions

    Unfortunately for the ISU, I would expect Campbell to hold them out next week. I don't believe he wants to go down the path of choosing victories over character. Not all coaches would make that difficult decision. Matt will.

    Four Freshman Suspended

    I would trade these four out of Ames if we could get the major contributor that is out back.

    2018 Football Targets

    If might be easier if we start listing the kids ISU hasn't offered. Crazy how many the staff has put out there.

    Signing Day 2017: Iowa State press release

    Really, really good class. Back to back should mean significant improvement over the next couple of years on the field.

    24 Year Old Local Kid With CTE

    Participation by kids is more of a reflection on society's changes over the last few years. It has nothing to do with understanding or relating to the concussion/CTE medical facts. Parents are sad and kids are becoming wimps. What, my son failed his math test? I am setting up a meeting with...

    Kamari Cotton-Moya transferring?

    Do the right thing KCM. Graduate, move closer to your kid, get into a good graduate program at a school that will pay for your first year, and be the best father you can once your football life is over. Thank you for your time in Ames.

    ***Iowa postgame thread***

    One tiny thing that is driving me crazy on a night when a million huge things are pissing me off: Gonzaga quit playing basketball in the 2nd half. Yet, that's what we are going to keep pointing too this year? That we were amazing the 2nd half of that game? We don't want Gonzaga again.

    Grade the Season

    I'm going B-. I like what I saw from some of the guys that were brought in last year which tells me this staff can see talent. I can't say that all of the in game coaching was as solid as I would have hoped, but everyone is adjusting to a new system and surroundings. My biggest concern is...

    Dear Heacock:

    I like your optimism, but you don't lose 3 starting DL and a starting MLB and expect to be as good next year. I don't care if the JUCO DT's exceed expectation. It just doesn't happen. If ISU's defense is as good as this year, Heacock deserves assitant coach of year.
