    Big Noon Kickoff 2025

    People keep mentioning guest pickers…….does BNK even do that? I could be wrong but I don’t remember them ever flying in a celebrity guest picker.

    Big Noon Kickoff 2025

    Yep but I do recall a lot of compliants every week due to the BNK kickoff time compared the ESPN game that follows Gameday. Typically Gameday will go right into the teams on the field for kickoff as opposed to BNK having an additional 10-15 minutes of pregame after their pregame show.

    Big Noon Kickoff 2025

    Honestly, I am kind of like you. I don’t watch it weekly or even in its entirety. It’s background noise to me at this point if I am home. I don’t have kids so my Saturday mornings are typically get a workout in and plan the food and drink portion of the day. College Football Podcasts are usually...

    Big Noon Kickoff 2025

    Big Noon is superior, imo. Outside of the month they went to Colorado games every week.

    NCAA set to allow direct payments to athletes

    I hope you are right but have any original thoughts? You’ve been posting the same post for months with just different wording that sounds like a bot or copy paste from a Thamel article. Yes, I know you’re going to call me a P2 boy or something.

    ***Official 2024-25 College Football (non-ISU) Thread***

    Give it a year or two and the commercials and timeouts will have the sunset right back in its natural end of 3rd/start of the 4th quarter. Ps: the sunset at Rose Bowl does hit different. Don’t let the haters say otherwise.

    Williams & Blum: Two big recruiting wins for Iowa State, sensitive Matt Rhule

    THANK YOU!!! This has been driving me crazy since it was announced he was visiting. At first I thought he was being facetious but it’s been mentioned on multiple pods.

    NIL - Is It What You Expected / Specific Changes Needed

    Curious as to what you specifically mean by losing interest because of lack of longevity with the program? Like, you prefer a kid coming in and redshirting and then maybe seeing the field after a couple of years? I wouldn’t say our bball or football teams have had as many 1 year rentals as...

    NIL - Is It What You Expected / Specific Changes Needed

    Exactly what I expected and have no issues. The money amount is a little crazy but you are worth what someone is willing pay you. I have more of an issue with how loose the portal is but that’s another discussion.

    Williams & Blum: Recapping a crazy 10 days

    JFC. Yes Kansas cheated, yes UNC cheated, and yes we also cheated in some capacity. Can we stop clutching pearls and admit that cheating has been done, by everyone as long as forever. To be honest I HOPE we do some under the table NIL deals whenever this gets settled. Who cares anymore?

    My friends who went to SDSU always said Brookings was just a smaller Ames…….. And that’s what Ames would turn into.

    Williams & Blum: Recapping a crazy 10 days

    North Carolina: we will distribute you our revenue money from sports gambling to help you fund your revenue sharing. Iowa: We will go after your athletes and their $15 bets to ensure they never play another second of collegiate ball again.

    Williams & Blum: Recapping a crazy 10 days

    Before going further I guess I would have to genuinely ask to you and others what does a voluntary separation look like? Is it ACC and Big 12 together? Is it individual schools choice? Is it anyone outside of the top 20 brands, which won’t happen, even the Minnesota’s of the world would never...

    Williams & Blum: Recapping a crazy 10 days

    For anyone who wants us to voluntarily “separate” from the Big 10/SEC, take a moment to think if you want the current landscape or to be UNI/Drake. Because that is what would happen.

    When was the last time you wore a tie?

    Hahaha. Funny enough this is exactly where my comments came from. I grew up in rural Iowa but live out on the west coast now. I often come back for weddings for family and friends and am baffled by how people dress. To each their own but if it was my wedding I’d be insulted if someone wore cargo...
