    Josiah Zayas commits

    I know it's spelled differently, but his last name immediately made me think of The Simpsons when they went to the Planet Of The Apes musical.

    10 UNWRITTEN RULES OF AN IRISH PUB

    Irish bars are a blast. My only recommendation for those going to Dublin for the game is stay away from Temple Bar area. It's nothing but French tourists that are really annoying. The Brazen Head is a fun one as it's the oldest pub in Ireland. The crowd was super fun and friendly and they...

    Casey’s Sucks

    The last time I went to a Casey's in Iowa was in 2009 when I was still in college. It was great then, they had my pizza ready quick. Had Casey's breakfast pizza in Indiana when I visited Laporta and it was great. Is it the ones in Ames that are bad? Or in general?

    Who will be the leading scorer for the 25-26 season?

    I went with Jefferson, but should be close between him and Momcilovic.

    RECRUITING: Jett Thomalla (4-star QB 2026 commit) flips to Alabama

    I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not, but SGA and Purdy did not go to high school together. SGA went to St Tomas More before transferring to Hamilton Heights. Purdy went to Perry.

    RECRUITING: Jett Thomalla (4-star QB 2026 commit) flips to Alabama

    Pablo Sanchez is Ken Griffey Jr. meets Rickey Henderson. If ICE didn't deport him then he'd be a superstar in the MLB right now.

    RECRUITING: Jett Thomalla (4-star QB 2026 commit) flips to Alabama

    Achmed Khan was great, but he couldn't chase down a line drive to center field like Pablo Sanchez.

    RECRUITING: Jett Thomalla (4-star QB 2026 commit) flips to Alabama

    Why didn't you pick Pablo Sanchez as your avatar since you went with a Backyard Baseball one? Pablo Sanchez was the GOAT and would hit a home run basically 2 out of every 3 at bats. Even Stephen A Smith couldn't find anything to pick him apart about.

    RECRUITING: Jett Thomalla (4-star QB 2026 commit) flips to Alabama

    Moberly could be good, but Manske is a lot bigger of a recruit. There's obviously no guarantees, but a solid chance Manske can pass him on the depth chart, even as a freshman.

    RECRUITING: Jett Thomalla (4-star QB 2026 commit) flips to Alabama

    Why does he deserve better? He chose to go this route. My guess is Thomalla took the bag of cash. There's also no guarantee for Thomalla to be a starter at Iowa State. Rocco will be a senior when Thomalla is a freshman. Manske is similar in terms of rankings to Thomalla, just the year...

    RECRUITING: Jett Thomalla (4-star QB 2026 commit) flips to Alabama

    He wouldn't be a four year starter unless he's redshirted since Rocco will be a senior when Thomalla is a freshman. It sucks that Thomalla flipped, but at least we have Manske coming in the fall. Getting commitments from 4 star quarterbacks in back to back seasons (even though Thomalla...

    2025-2026 MBB computer projections thread

    As a freshman, I'm hoping Pleta is a guy that at least gets 15 minutes a game and averages 8 and 6. That would be a great role for a 7th man and then a jump as a sophomore. He's a huge question mark, but there's potential and we need to see how it translates.

    ESPN 2025 preseason poll.

    Iowa State isn't a top 10 team on paper to start the season. Losing two of the top 10 receivers in college football stings. While we have solid transfers coming in, it's still a question mark if Becht will be able to throw for as many yards as last year. I certainly think he can, but can...

    NBA: *** 2024 NBA thread ***

    I thought we had it rough in DC with just 2 championships (Caps in 18, Nats in 19) in the past 32 years, but Minnesota has it brutal. At least you're not a Mariners fan. They have it the worst.

    If Haliburton Wins the NBA Finals This Year...

    If Haliburton had played more than two years at ISU I would say it's a possibility. Niang should get his number retired before Haliburton. Regardless, Haliburton has been an absolute monster in the playoffs and I'm cheering for the Pacers. OKC is going to be a brutal matchup though.
