    We Will Collective contributor numbers

    This isn't aimed at just you, but I get tired of people knocking how much money Iowa State fans donate to athletics. For the 22-23 year per Sportico' s College financial summary https://www.sportico.com/business/commerce/2023/college-sports-finances-database-intercollegiate-1234646029/ Iowa...

    ***Official 2024 Transfer Thread***

    Mine is a memory and not a nightmare, I showed up and found out it was a 1/2 quarter class and it ended the week before I showed up! I passed out of it my last quarter because it was required to graduate! I know I am old when I talk about quarters.

    Big 12 / Big East Future Series being discussed

    We should get Creighton or Marquette, unless they assume Kansas is going to get better ratings and we get pushed down to play Villanova

    ***Official 2024 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament Thread***

    Arizona with that coach is going to struggle in the Big 12! How can you have a team in foul trouble like Clemson was and just stand out on the perimeter and chunk up 3's, when you are shooting under 25% on those 3's. Drive the basket and get fouled!

    Illinois matchup

    I am a fan of KenPom, and since conference play started we have played only 3 teams with a defensive rating above Illinois. South Dakota State, Oklahoma State, and West Virginia. Our closest comp is Baylor at #6 offense and #69 defense. Everybody except the 2 noted above in the Big 12 metric...

    Illinois matchup

    I think the game against Illinois will be like playing Baylor offense, and the Iowa defense. Play physical like we normally do and we have a really good chance to win this game by double digits.

    Jamie Pollard had us as the last 2 seed in his submission

    I am going to post this and forget it and focus on winning what is in front of this. North Carolina and the 4 2 seeds all had a total of between 10 and 11 quad 3 &4 games this year.

    *** Official Selection Sunday Thread ***

    Disappointed in the draw, but if we can beat Baylor and Houston by 20-30 points we should be able to get thru this to meet UCONN in the elite 8, and jump the ball up and see what happens

    Check UCONN's non con SOS, they weren't a lot different from us. A lot of teams had the same # of Quad 3 & 4 games total. Someone should point that out to Clark.

    They talk about our schedule, but nobody seems to care that UCONN has 9 quad 4 wins, the same as us.
