    This helps to reflect that we as Iowa State fans have kind of been in a bubble as far as losing production from year-to-year in this new era. Even in an offseason where Iowa State loses its top 3 scorers, we are still returning a far more significant part of our roster than most other teams...

    Who leads the team in assists this coming year?

    Prather is an interesting option. He obviously had that great A/TO ratio. But I believe a lot of his assists came in a secondary creator role rather than someone the offense ran through. Though that also might make his numbers more sustainable vs. someone like Johnson, who will probably handle...

    Jack Kohnen committed to Iowa State!!!

    Per Barttorvik, Naz had 6 dunks in his career (2 in his junior year, 4 in his redshirt senior year). But he really did evolve his body and play style while he was out with his medical redshirt before his last season. He got a lot stronger, and it helped him double his attempts at the rim from...

    Jack Kohnen committed to Iowa State!!!

    These other, more recent, highlights might be better for showing some explosion. Jack Kohnen is #3 in red in this video, and his younger brother is #1. If we're assuming he fills a Momcilovic-type role (floor-spacing wing), I think we can confidently say he has more vertical explosion than...

    Jack Kohnen committed to Iowa State!!!

    I believe the original report, at least, was that he was 19 and she was 15 when it actually happened, and there was some discussion of whether it was a one-time thing or something that went on for a longer period of time. Either of those would change the situation quite a bit. But again, in...

    Jack Kohnen committed to Iowa State!!!

    Anyway, the Kohnen commit is exciting. Here's a video of him and Donovan Davis going up against each other. It's about a year and a half old, but it's fun to see two ISU commits face off. Seems like Kohnen generally had more highlight plays in this matchup, but it also sounds like Davis has...

    Jack Kohnen committed to Iowa State!!!

    Regardless of the lack of punishments or charges, I think it's fair to say that none of us would want Iowa State to have the kind of negative attention that Giddey had for a period of time. The case was dropped due to the other party's lack of cooperation. That doesn't mean that Giddey didn't...

    Cyclone Basketball Lineup Builder

    It looks to be completely AI-driven, rather than pulling from a roster + stats dataset. So it generally gets the right idea of players, especially more recent ones, but isn't necessarily giving 100% accurate info.

    CF After Dark Draft: Best Single game FB performances

    That was essentially his last game playing only on offense, at least. He didn't record any stats the next week against West Virginia. But his QB/LB season was the next year, in 2017. It's understandable that everyone remembers that Tech game as the Joel Lanning game. But Jacob Park was also...

    Cytown Update

    FWIW, I don't think Gemini was right on this, but that it may be an even better deal for ISU. Image below is from page 10 of the development agreement that the regents approved. The first payment to be made is the PILOT payment, which is money going back to the university specifically for...

    Milan Momcilovic tweets "entering NBA draft and portal"

    Under Otz, Iowa State plays great defense. But even then, I don't think a lot of fans realize how reliant it is on college athletes being unable to consistently make the right pass or the open shot. Not to mention adjustments: an NBA team that is a one-trick pony offensively or defensively is...

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    I ride an e-bike for my daily commute as long as the weather is okay, and I really enjoy it. At my commute distance (2.5 miles one way, in Ames), it probably takes just a couple of minutes longer riding my bike vs. driving. I'm a fair-weather biker, so I stop in the winter. But overall, I've...

    TJ signs 10 year extension

    Searching for a few of those, here's what I found: Bill Self: Was $5 million, now $4 million (as of 4/1) (Source) Dan Hurley: $3 million (Source) Todd Golden: $2 million is for an NBA job, $11 million for a college job (Source) Scott Drew: Reportedly, $4.5 million (Source) Tommy Lloyd: $11...

    Cytown Update

    I think it makes sense to be wary about the timeline of the project and whether the project fits into current economic conditions. It's perfectly reasonable to have different perspectives on that. For me, I guess the partnership with ISU Research Park gives me a fair amount of confidence in the...
