    Royce White in Ames today

    That was part of the problem. What Mac did here deserves to be bashed. He was awful for Iowa State basketball. The problem was that Iowa State fans bought the pr and thought he was a nice guy, and Iowa boy. He was in completely over his head on a Big 12 sideline. The player turnover was...

    Royce White in Ames today

    Under Mac who is and was a small time coach, and man, the people that defended him were the ones that talked about Kentucky and Baylor. They rationalized that schools couldn't win quickly because that's not doing it the right way as a way to try to justify repeated failures over four years...

    Does Money = Wins?

    Money buys the bells and whistles. Coaches use these to recruit. The better the bells and whistles, the better the caliber of player you can attract. The better the caliber of player that you attract, the more talent you have. The more talent you have, the more you win. That creates a...

    Royce White in Ames today

    Iowa has ONE legitimate Big 10 player on their roster in Gatens, and if he played for a good team he would be one of those chemistry and hustle IQ players. We can debate styles, but Iowa didn't suck last year because they were poorly coached, the lost because they didn't have enough good...

    Really? Seriously? You are wrong, not because this kid might implode again, but because talent is always coveted. I am sure that your tune would change if he was visiting Iowa today. I am also sure that many of the Cyclones on here would be saying the same thing that you are. Neither...

    ISU measuring success, Chris & Deace

    The simple fact is that after the 15 game losing streak, beating Iowa became a must for an ISU coach. Fortunately, Iowa got terrible, and Mac was able to win some games. mac was also at his best in those games as well (except for the lousy adjustments he and his staff made the last time he...

    UPDATE: Uthoff down to 6

    UNI has had a great run the past seven years. There is no disputing that. The best thing that has happened for them is that Iowa State and Iowa have been very bad for most of that timeframe. I was home when they played KU, and I have never seen as many Panther shirts in the area as I did that...

    Basketball Recruiting Note: Josh Oglesby

    What do you mean "might?" He was getting an Iowa offer all along. He has had a pretty strong Summer on the AAU circuit and his stock has gone up considerably. Iowa fans may think that with this new up tempo offense, and all of the recruiting connections that McCaffery suposedly has they can...

    Best (in college) FB Player ever @ ISU

    Karl Nelson was a stud. Also, Mike Stensrud was pretty tough. As far as skill position players, I think George Amundson was a great choice. I would offer the name Dexter Green as one for consideration.
