    i try to listen to talk radio as much as possible. i never understand listening to the same songs day after day. at least challenge the mind alittle. i doubt this will be popular with the 20 and 30 somethings. but its my opinion.

    Iowa State/UNI spread is out at 5dimes

    i was one who was advocating for a proven head coach when we hired Matt Campbell. If you remember Dan MAc or chizek or rhodes first games it wasnt pretty at best and painful at worst. with an experienced coach and staff, i know we will be prepared and at least look like we've actually played...

I had him bundled up i thought pretty good. It was late in the game and getting colder. Their was like...

    A Few Things And a New Direction:

    you guys .are missing the point. im not saying no coordinators make good head coaches. not saying we gotta hire Howad schnellenberger. But look at what we have hired. we've never hired anyone with any real sustained success at the Div I level.... You also have to remember our starting point...

    A Few Things And a New Direction:

    First a few Things. First i would ask the moderators to ban posters who get on here and call our players "Worthless". Or describe them as "no talent". Posters like that arent mature enough to be on here, at the very least each of their posts should come with The disclaimer "Im only 10...

    Worst OLine ever?

    you know you guys can **** and moan about messingham i can understand that. but you need to watch the actual line play not just the result of the play. they are blitzing, stunting scheming and the actual line blocking is definatly not terrible.

    Rhoads to Ohio State?

    At least exCYt you have a rhyme to your reason. Many on here start a post with " I think" and it is followed with pure speculation, pretty much useless.

    Ames High QB Anderson to walk on at Iowa

    I think the point is a local kid who is a Cyclone fan chooses to walk on at iowa instead of his hometown favorite. I saw a stat that iowa had something like 19 former QBs on the roster and many were starting @ other positions. They find ATHLETES and get them on the field !!!! Seams to have...

    Im with you Footballin. Obviously we all want the best QB on the field but we are much better off (long term) if that is one of the young guys ( Barnett or Capello). So heres hoping its one of those guys!!!
