    In Your Opinion... (7 questions)

    Got this from EMAW site, but it's pretty good way of seeing what everyone's thoughts are on the tournament... so I'm bringing it over (sorry if someone else already has)... What's your thoughts on - 1) #1 seed most likely to Lose first? 2) Team seeded 10-13 most likely to make sweet 16? 3)...

    Hawaii

    Wife and I are taking an 8 day vacation to Hawaii, staying on Oahu (no island hopping since the flight and resort are all on miles). Who's got tips on places to go, see, eat, do, etc? I'd love any and all info. Thanks CFs!

    SI.com - coaching changes review

    Riskiest hire: Fred Hoiberg was more than just a great player at Iowa State. He was a cultural icon, the Ames native who sank feather jump shots and went by the nickname "The Mayor." That qualifies him to be the guest speaker at a booster function but not necessarily a head coach in the Big 12...

    Good and bad write up for Harrison... but constructive criticism is all. Harrison Barnes, Jared Sullinger among top high school recruits - Seth Davis - SI.com Harrison Barnes, 6-6, 206, Ames, Iowa: Allow me to damn Barnes with faint praise. For someone who is widely recognized as one of...

    Brackins blurb per NBA scout

    Craig Brackins, 6-10 sophomore forward, Iowa State: "He's eventually going to be a pro, but I don't think he's ready physically right now. He has good agility, and he has a small forward's game in a big forward's body. He's not clumsy like a lot of big guys, but when he makes moves off the...

    CFN Preview: ISU @ BU

    I don't necessarily agree with all of this; however, I think the review of our run defense is pretty accurate. However - turnovers will be huge, and we've made veteran teams turn the ball over frequently so far, so I think that's a huge advantage for us with a frosh qb, young rb and such for...

    Special Admits - Football Players

    I thought this was just an interesting chart for everyone to see. This is absolutely crazy; I also see how a school like Cal can be so high seeing that they probably have to bend the rules a lot more to get near the athletes they get/want... But hey, at least we don't ruin our moral compass...
