    Toby Keith dies at 62

    Before making these kinds of statements, you need to go and do some reading on the early history of Montana (as a territory and state). "Civilization" was a slow developing process. Cattle rustling, highwaymen, claim jumpers, murdering people to settle disputes, all were frequently brought to...

    Place Your Bechts

    (Not trying to complicate the QB situation; but) watch the senior highlight video of preferred walk-on freshman QB Wyatt Bohm. That kid is an athlete, and is very good at quarterbacking a football team. He was the starting QB for two seasons. He passed for 5,623 yards, with 59 TD passes. link...

    Given what we're all assuming with Dekkers, who do you want to start at QB?

    I was referring to the number of game (live-action) snaps. Drills, 7 on 7, and scrimmages are important; but, they are not the same as what takes place in a game.

    Given what we're all assuming with Dekkers, who do you want to start at QB?

    Particularly early in the season, coaches want to minimize turnovers. Consistency is often the result of the number of repetitions a player has performed. Tanner Hughes has easily taken the most (live action) snaps, going into Fall camp.

    Quaron Adams questions

    For those who think Coach Campbell is too conservative (in philosophy) to know how to utilize a small, quick football player, google Corey Jones - Toledo Rockets.

    Somebody is walking by and spitting on my dog

    I am somewhat surprised that more veterinarians have not come to this discussion and explained that the odds are about 98% that you are dealing with your own dog's slobber and drooling. Most dogs (curiosity, boredom) will do alot of sniffing when staked outside. Dust, dirt, molds, etc will...

    2023 Football Targets (Offer List in OP +3)

    My understanding is that Benjamin Brahmer wants to play a "flex tight end position" similar to how we utilized Charlie Kolar. He (apparently) was told by the coaches that they were in agreement that that would be the best way to maximize his athletic talents (size, speed, and great hands).

    You get one restaurant that’s closed in Ames to come back…

    You get one restaurant that’s closed in Ames to come back…

    Taco Time. Graduated back in the mid 70’s. When ever I had a meeting or conference in central Iowa, I most always set aside time to swing into Ames for a little “Taco Time”.

    HC Matt Campbell….

    In my opinion, the problem at Nebraska is that they want to “buy” a good football program. Heaven knows that they have spent an absolute ton of money trying to regain past glory. I know what Iowa State’s culture is. Nebraska’s culture - something entirely different.

    Hunter Dekkers Concerns?

    And to make me even older, I watched Sonny Jurgensen (Washington Redskins QB) in person. That was back in the Joe Kapp days !

    Hunter Dekkers Concerns?

    This will tell you how old I am. I have watched Iowa State football for 53 years this coming season. Who does Hunter Dekkers resemble ? In my opinion, his style and throwing mechanics reminds me of Sonny Jurgensen.

    Updated Roster Heights and Weights

    My understanding is that during Spring practice the coaches had Singleton putting in a number of reps at DE. He would be a pretty stout DE (6’2 - 300lbs.)

    Who will be hated in the new Big 12?

    Two automatics for me. Always Baylor, and Houston. (I am assuming that the “quality” of players that he is bringing to Houston are the same as what he had at WVU.)

    The last high school DE prospect that had a senior basketball season (like the one Ikenna Ezeogu is having), was Will McDonald. Is Cyclone football getting another exceptional DE ?
