    Question about in state tuition

    I have to leave Iowa and move to KC this summer for work reasons. My children are not happy, they have their heart set on going to ISU and are worried about paying out of state tuition when they come back. My oldest son would be a nonresident for two years and my youngest son would be a...

    Welfare Check on the Rotters?

    Cincinnati, BYU, Baylor, and TCU have a combined record of 15-25, you might want to slow your roll just a little. After all, ******** programs care about going 6-6. You might want to save this thread if they win one of the next two.

    Has the Rot Started to Set In?

    There is something to this. As a Cubs fan, post 2016, I have been less tolerant of mediocre baseball after winning a championship. I know we are in every game, which historically was only a dream scenario. Last season, if we had scored 15 points in every game we would have won 7 games...

    Has the Rot Started to Set In?

    I’m ok with losing to Iowa, considering losing X and all the guys to the gambling fiasco. What I have a problem with is the details that are missing on offense and special teams. How many times in the past couple of seasons have you asked yourself, “do they even practice that?” Examples would...

    Dedric Willoughby Passes Away at 49

    When DW was at ISU, I was going through a rough time. My parents were going through a divorce and it was hard to cope with the reality of the situation. Cyclone basketball got through some rough times and Dedric will always be my favorite Cyclone all all-time because of it. RIP 22.

    REALISTIC expectations for 2023 football season

    I think the floor is 2 wins. I am actually surprised of the 5-8 win expectation from most. Most likely wins in order of likelihood: UNI Ohio OSU Iowa Kansas TCU @ Cincinnati It is possible that the offense could be worse than last year with X gone and it is also possible for the defense to...

    Adding that they are one of the worst rebounding teams in the country, #348 in rebounding margin.

    Who was the best modern Iowa State Men's Basketball Team?

    This team was my favorite…ranked as high as #4 in the nation, in the top ten most of the year, but lost 3 of the last 4 in the Big 12. Willoughby was a volume shooter who shot 40% plus from 3. Lost to UCLA at the buzzer in the Sweet 16, Willoughby shot 17 threes and made 8 in his final game...

    After some research, I've come around on Dekkers

    If a team can run the ball, do teams play less zone? IDK, I am asking. Is it a case where we can’t run the ball, so teams can play a lot of zone, compounding the problem? Is this something Dekkers will improve upon, or is he not the guy?

    After some research, I've come around on Dekkers

    I was speaking more in terms of the turnovers and what others have said I was speaking in terms of the turnovers and what others have said about him not seeing the field and missing open receivers. I don’t how accurate those statements are. I know when he runs the ball, especially early in...

    After some research, I've come around on Dekkers

    There was a play in the Tech game where it was a bad snap and he snagged it with his right hand and just ripped the ball down the left sideline. His instincts took over and he made a play. I think that is the frustrating thing, he doesn’t seem to have great football instincts. I think he does...

    Is your trust in CMC lost to fix this offense in 2023 and beyond?

    I just don’t understand where the improvements will come from. We lose our best offensive weapon and we haven’t seen improvement in any person or group that gives you hope for next year. Even in CMC’s first year, we could score points and ran for over 2000 yards without a dominant running...

    *** Official IOWA STATE Vs Miami Game(Day) Thread ***

    This was such a weird season, but I was so happy to care about basketball again. I love this team, despite the shortcomings on the offense end. It will be a very interesting offseason to see who stays, who goes, and who is added to this roster. Unbelievable year, shattering all expectations...

    *** Official IOWA STATE Vs Miami Game(Day) Thread ***

    McGusty is a stud. I keep wanting to call him McFlurry, lol. They are legit on offense, although they have not seen a legitimate defense like ours. Penetration is a major concern, but they not strong inside. I also saw a lot of “olé” defense, but we’ll see if they have cranked up the...

    *** Official IOWA STATE Vs Miami Game(Day) Thread ***

    I admittedly have not watched Miami this year, so I went back and watched them at home vs Virginia and VT, both home losses. My takeaways are: They take a lot of chances which leads to easy buckets for both teams They do make shots, their ability to drive makes their offense go VT had success...

    Otzelberger comes to defense of players after blowout Big 12 Tournament loss to Texas Tech

    This team wins games on effort and it just wasn’t there last night. 1. Spacing was horrible on offense, one possession we had 5 out and we scored. I would have loved to see more of that. 2. Defensive rotations used to be amazing and now they’re just not there 3. How many layups and dunks...

    I hope we come out with our hair on fire after Wednesday night’s game, IMO nothing to lose, and Baylor is playing for the regular season crown.
