    ESPN Top 100 Recruit List

    If our program is leveling up why don't we have a single recruit? Do you think we should expect to see ourselves on the list more often, and does keeping our program in the right direction depend on it?

    Will Cyclone Free Throw Shooting Give Us a Heart Attack?

    I wonder if there could be a relationship between the pace of game and FT %. Just a random thought to throw out. p.s. I am amused by the fact that you feel the need to assure us that you still love this team. Probably because of the antagonistic tone set by some of the crazy paranoid fans around...

    Bigger issue with DeJean-Jones

    it's probably just a PR thing. that's why the decision is lame. the whole 'teach a kid a lifelesson' 'send a message' is BS

    Charges Dismissed

    clearly Fred needs to wait to act until Mon when everything is official.

    BDJ: Hoiberg's Comments on him doing too much

    seems like any of your criticisms would disappear if you would read my post. like I said, it's a good problem to have. a problem that CFH thought enough about to mention in a the post-game. in some of the nail-biter games in the big 12 it could be significant. I was just observing. Even if he...

    BDJ: Hoiberg's Comments on him doing too much

    I can't help but wonder if the people who think I'm a troll are of the ilk that don't believe we landed on the moon. How would this post be trolling? please explain.

    BDJ: Hoiberg's Comments on him doing too much

    I was a bit relieved to hear Freddy make the comment in post game Oakland about him at times doing too much. Obviously its a good problem to have- a player with so much talent who might tend to go overboard. There were a few fast break plays where a pass was the obvious choice, and we failed to...

    ISU at South Carolina???

    I've only been hearing ISU is playing at neutral location in NY. but according to ESPN sched the game is at SC. Anybody know anything about this? cyclones.com has the game in Brooklyn, so i would guess ESPN is wrong.

    The Hoiberg factor: mitigating the transfers risk

    I appreciate C.Williams comments about the need for a dose of luck in addition to talent to get to the final four. This is true. A great team is always going to lose some games. I also appreciate that every year informed ISU fans are holding their breath to see how each new team will gel...

    where to watch Toledo game out of state

    I see it is on cyclone.tv I am out of state. Does anyone know if sports bars will pick it up? or do I have to subscribe to ctv? I have like no good beer on tap at my house.

    Defending Pollard: the wrong point of emphasis.

    I guess you should tell that to the announcers who were flabbergasted at the call, as well as everyone else. This is not a point people discuss. if the angle was available for the replay officials it seems like that it would have been available to the camera crew and producers of the game.

    Defending Pollard: the wrong point of emphasis.

    Everyone is so quick to defend Pollard with the disclaimer "we aren't saying that the call cost us the game." Obviously Pollard's comments are an appeal to somehow change the culture of officiating in the Big 12, and I applaud him for it, despite the unintended consequence. I do think it is...

    After seeing OU vs WVU: subtract 1 toss-up game

    believ it or not, not every game is a coin toss. oh yeah, I didn't factor inclement weather to the equation. Good point!

    After seeing OU vs WVU: subtract 1 toss-up game

    Some people are talking about WVU as toss-up game. (eg see my thread about going bowling possibly coming down to WVU & TU). after watching them play the Sooners I feel sobered. thinking- whoa. we don't have a chance against these Mountaineers. So much speed and explosiveness on both sides of the...

    Will going bowling come down to TCU or WVU?

    Good points, but come on. humor me. . .

    Will going bowling come down to TCU or WVU?

    I think the verdict on KSU - legit top 20 team- is changing my view of our potential this year. I'd say getting to 6 wins is more possible than fans want to admit. I see 5 more winnable games on our schedule: Toledo, Texas, Kansas, TT (in Ames) brings us to 5. WVU in Ames will be very tough (as...

    Squawkeyes- thanks for the laughs

    It's enjoyable to beat Iowa of course. But the whining, excuses, are the icing on the cake. Thanks Squawkeyes!
