Putting a Third Team player over 2 First Team players? Georges was probably our most important offensive player, but his defense wasn't particularly good.

Our fans probably boo more than any other school. Yes, even more than KU.

So was Home Team pizza, for those that are old enough to remember it. Home of the "create-a-coupon" deal.
"Home Team, what can I get you?"
"Yeah, I've got a coupon for 3 large pizzas with unlimited toppings and bread sticks for 7 dollars."
"7 dollars each or total?"
"Total"
"Ok."
"Wait wait, it also says I get another medium pizza free..."
"...and a two liter of Coke"
"For 7 dollars?"
"Yeah"
"Okay, just give the coupon to the driver"
"It's an online coupon"
"Alright, whatever"
As long as you gave a decent tip, those guys didn't give a ****. Great for after the bars closed down and nobody in your group had any money left.
Steve Leath was a very good president for this university.
Depending on what ranking you use ISU College of Engineering is not in the top 10%. For 2019, US News and World Report ranks ISU #41 of 220 schools.
If an ISU sports team does not finish the year in the top 25, do they have much national relevance?

Paul Rhoads was fired 2 years too late. Administration was too much of a cheapskate to stop the bleeding after the 2013 season.
Melvin was an All American and Big 12 POY. Scholar athlete of the year in the Big 12. Made at least honorable mention Big 12 all four years. 4th player ever with 1500 pts and 1000 rebounds. 2nd all time in rebounds. And yes, he was the best player on the team his senior year. He was the best player in the Big 12. I think that's why the AP and Coaches chose him as POY??????
It's really a no brainer.
Ejim, Niang and Morris should all go up.
I have never understood the resistance to Melvin's #3 being in the rafters.
What more did the guy have to do on or off the court?
Niang and Morris seem to be unanimous selections, and neither of them won CPOTY (though they were stuck behind Buddy Hield and Frank Mason, to be fair).
These...
were better than these... (diarrhea green/gold pants with actual gold secondary stripe)
but these would make the best throwback.

1) Even as an undergrad, ISU/Ames was the most fun when there were the least amount of students around (fall/winter/spring breaks and summer term)
2) Engineering majors think they have the most important major and profession...more simply they lack perspective and humility (this is not exclusive to ISU)
3) ISU has never had a major role in "feeding the world" nor does the state of Iowa and my fellow farmers
4) There seems to be a higher % of attractive ladies at U of I compared to ISU (coming from the soon-to-be husband married to a gorgeous ISU grad).
5) "Dilly Dilly" Needs to Die

The 2011-12 MBB team wouldn't have reached the Sweet 16 regardless of which 1 seed was in its region.
Ugh I forgot phony Joni was also an alum. It’s embarrassing that those two graduated to go ont to make such fools of themselves and be sycophants.
