    Worst College Recruiting Website Ever

    It's a great website if you're hawking Ginsu knives or a garish hotel/casino. It's pathetic for recruiting student-athletes to a major university. Way over-the-top self promotion by Brewster. Lots of style, no substance. There are reasons there are no "play4mackbrown", "play4urbanmeyer"...

    Nate Kaeding: Worst Postseason kicker ever?

    Negative. What's so great about making 99.9% of all meaningless field goals if you fold like a tent whenever something important is on the line?

    Worst College Recruiting Website Ever

    It's not even close. This is as bad as it gets. Very embarrassing for the dozens of Minnesota football fans. Play4Brew

    Big Honor for Iowa City

    Sooner or later the Big 10 was going to beat all the other conferences at something. #5 Madison, Wisconsin #4 Bloomington, Indiana #3 Iowa City, Iowa Big Life -- Big Stage -- Big Ten!!!

    What do our bball assistants do?

    If they're reading this, then we know what at least some of their duties are.

    Dooley In at Tennessee

    Welcome to the club, UT! Just like Gene Chizik made ISU fans reconsider how "bad" Dan McCarney was, Greg McDermott made ISU fans reconsider how "bad" Wayne Morgan was, and Jamie Pollard made ISU fans reconsider how "bad" Bruce Vandevelde was. The infamous quest for "the next level". It's a...

    Days since ISU's last conference road win

    As bad as Morgan's worst year was, it is still better than McDermott's best year at ISU. If one underachieving year out of three was enough to justify Morgan's termination, then why do McDermott's four years of underachieving justify a nine year contract? The media really needs to ask JP that...

    Mac not in at SF...Skip Holtz is...

    Of course not. It takes a record like 5-19 to get noticed by the big boys!

    Texas to BigTen? HA!

    And that's exactly why Texas would not leave the Big XII. They not only have a huge budget, but the conference sets them up to have a huge advantage over almost everyone else. Why would they give that up to go to the Big 10 where they would have to compete on nearly equal terms? And is...

    Hating Coaches

    Fans who hate coaches for leaving are idiots. If McDermott had left us for Kansas or UCLA after his first season, everyone would have hated him for it. Now most of those same fans want him fired. Fans and most AD's (like ours) don't show any loyalty to coaches, so they don't deserve any...

    Kiffin leaving Tenn is worse then Chizik leaving ISu

    Not if the NCAA drops the hammer and bans USC from bowl games for awhile.

    Kiffin leaving Tenn is worse then Chizik leaving ISu

    Asking someone if they have interest or if they want to interview is not the same as offering them the job.

    Would you hold it against Rhoads if he left for a better job?

    Read it again and try to comprehend, man. Say the words out loud if you have to.

    Texas -8

    Bodog? They suck, man. When do they put up their lines, 2 minutes before tipoff?

    Would you hold it against Rhoads if he left for a better job?

    This is 100% correct. And once all the people who wanted to get rid of him got their way, they'd be wanting him back. Just like ISU fans wanted McCarney back after Chizik actually started coaching, or wanted Morgan back after McDermott actually started coaching. And just like Iowa fans who...

    Would you hold it against Rhoads if he left for a better job?

    We had a football coach who took us to an unprecedented 5 bowl games in 7 years, Pollard fired him after one year with no postseason play. We had a basketball coach who took us to an NCAA tournament, an NIT tournament, and won 55 games in his first 3 years with 3 winning seasons, and Pollard...

    mcdermott

    Are you really talking about Iowa State and the NCAA tournament in the same sentence? I could understand it in October, I thought it was possible with our returning talent + our new recruits. I even thought we would surprise some people when the Big XII coaches predicted ISU to be 8th or 9th...

    Lane Kiffin to USC

    I think Tommy Bowden could be a serious candidate at either Tennessee or USF. He got "Pollardized" at Clemson; whoever hires him next is going to get a great coach (i.e. better than Dabo Swinney).
