Okay, I Get It! No trade off of wrestling for baseball!
Bad news, Buckwheat. ISU is already at the minimum number of sports to remain in D-1. I just thank the Gods that none of the geniuses posting in this thread advocating for Hockey or Baseball are actually in a position of authority in the ISU A.D. --Relic -
Assistants
That is not correct. The CWC is technically not an RTC. The list of recognized RTCs is linked below. Currently (until the CRTC is established), the closest RTC is the one in Cedar Falls and the next closest is in Iowa City. That's a lot of acronyms: CWC = Cyclone Wrestling Club RTC =... -

Assistants
It was my understanding that the CRTC would have its own coaches, separate from the ISU staff. So it doesn't really matter if Coach Dresser's assistants have freestyle experience or not. -
Coaching Candidates - Tommy Birch (DMRegister)
The X-Factor here is Coach Dresser's wife. She's from Blacksburg, VA or a nearby town. Otherwise, there's no doubt he could be lured back to his home state. Having spent several years in the south (Atlanta, GA), I couldn't wait to get back to Iowa and I'd guess Coach Dresser is in the same... -
Next coach?
You should really consider limiting your posts on this site to the golf or cross-country forums. -
Next coach?
Interesting points. But assistant coaches in wrestling have a far greater ability to impact results than in football. And the results have not been good. To Buf's point, I think if AD Pollard can make a solid hire, there's at least a decent chance that attrition (including recruiting losses)... -
Next coach?
Considering how poorly the 'clones have been performing the last season and a half, do you really think it's wise to keep anyone from the current staff? -
CKJ has got to go!
I wasn't really talking about the results, just the emphasis. Relic -
CKJ has got to go!
Personally, I think it's time for a complete overhaul. The Clones need to get back to hard-nosed, folk-style wrestling, a la the expletive-deleted Hawks. I may be wrong about this, but it seems like the current regime has more of a free-style orientation. (I wonder if I could slip in a few... -
CKJ has got to go!
Thought-provoking response :) Despite all I've posted, I'm a huge Cyclone fan and hope for better times ahead. I just don't believe that CKJ is the person to lead the wrestling team to those better times. Relic -
CKJ has got to go!
That may be true, but he definitely took his time arriving for the interview. I hope he's not that nonchalant about the other aspects of coaching ISU wrestling (and judging by the wrestling today, he may be.) Relic -
CKJ has got to go!
I watched the video feed for at least 20 minutes after the creepy CTB conference, coach Jackson was a no-show and the Cy.tv feed moved on to regularly scheduled programming (which was awesome, btw.) If he eventually showed up, no on was there to actually witness it. Relic -
CKJ has got to go!
I'm basing this not on the results of today's match (regardless of how pathetically the clones wrestled), rather on how he reacted to most of the losing wrestlers as they walked off the mat. He mostly just shook his head at them as they walked off. Definitely the sign of a coach who's not... -
*** OFFICIAL VEISHEA WEEK 2014 THREAD ***
What are you a chimpanzee? Poking at stuff with a straw? Intelligence should win out over curiosity. There is absolutely no excuse (regardless of how hard you try to justify your actions) for standing around when the savages are tearing apart city or university property. Do ISU a favor and...- Relic

New Cyclone Fans / Checking things out
Welcome to the Cyclone family! It is unfortunate, but Klamath632 isn't exaggerating too badly about the typical quality of discussion of female athletes/athletics here on Cyclone Fanatic. The best place for track news is going to be the official home page of Cyclone sports which is...- Relic

New bed
I purchased a DeluxeBed Tempurpedic mattress approximately 3.5 years ago. It was very comfortable/supportive for the first 2.5 years. Around that time, my hips and lower back started bothering me. I was a bit worried because I've never suffered from any long-term aches or pains. But I... -
Joe Heskett
I really hope this is another false rumor. Joe was a great wrestler for ISU and seems like a genuinely decent guy. But hiring him as ISU's head wrestling coach would be tantamount to hiring Cael-lite, i.e. hiring someone based solely on their wrestling prowess and hoping they work out as a...
