Cold is relative compared to the upcoming...

    9 injuries?

    I don't know what is normal but I think going into the year we knew we were going to be thin. Especially thin on defense which I put on the Burnhams especially the d line and lb's. Plenty of recruiting misses and misjudged characters. Year 6 with no depth whatsoever is a program issue...

    2017 Recruit?

    Ok, so my title is a little misleading. My oldest daughter is a 6' middle that graduates in 2017. Current Approach touch 9'5" and we have been told she definitely has potential from D2 coaches. My question is how did some of you get your daughter noticed outside of your local schools? When...

    Texas is pretty good. Will be great next year.

    Disappointing for sure. Iowa state just doesn't have the same caliber of play makers and lines. It's life, we aren't sneaking up on anyone anymore. Two winnable games remain. Go Cyclones.

    Vibe of the Team?

    Reading through various meltdown analysis, picked up on a few points that are concerning. 1) Mess - if Rhoads is really in his ear giving play call advice - then does he have the confidence to call a decent game? Worse yet - if he is under pressure for his performance, does that translate to...

    Cyclones finish 8-4.

    No game on the schedule they can't win. Oklahoma the toughest. The rest are toss ups except Kansas

    Razorback fans starting to talk about Rhoads.....

    Nothing new when hot coach gets talked about for other jobs but talk radio in Little Rock has taken notice of Rhoads. They pointed out that Their AD Jeff Long and Rhoads were at Pittsburgh together. I would guess Rhoads name gets mentioned even more this year. Lets hope Jeff Long listens to...

    Lets remember where we come from. Wins against ranked teams are good.

    Too much negativity after a big win. Winning creates expectations for more and flashier wins. Just win. Beating tcu on the road is big. No win had beat them in the last 12 tries. Jared played good. There is no qb controversy. Cyclones are the best the have been in several years. Enjoy it.

    Enough about Iowa, What about Western Illinois?

    Know absolutely nothing about them - first game Iowa State is favored in this year? Should we expect Jared Barnett to get some reps? Assume its only on Cyclones.TV? I know we are supposed to celebrate for 24 hours and all, but ready to get on with it.

    Can Iowa really be a Cyclone State?

    DMac won 5 straight against the Hawks but lost in Conference and lost badly in many games that mattered. Rhoads has won 2 of 3 and has more interest in the program than anytime since perhaps 1982, but more importantly has several bigger wins than either Iowa victory. Its not about beating...

    Rooting for Mizzou

    Hate to admit it, but living in SEC country - its too much, they all think Missouri is going to get rolled stepping up to a big boy conference. I think they struggle long term, but wouldn't mind them winning some games against the top teams in the SEC. Hate Mizzou, but hate the SEC more.

    HP Touchpad Cyanogen 7 Android - Help

    Ok, so I was one of the lucky ones to get in on the deal back on the fire sale...today I installed Cyanogen 7 Android alpha 3. It is installed as a dual boot so I can still use Webos. Installation was pretty easy for a non techie but it did take a while since I missed a step or two along the...

    sky is not falling

    the reaction on this board to 3 non-conference losses is really over the top. Royce white Is the real deal the Absence of a big 12 pg is the main issue consider Marcus fizer won 15 games his first year and 32 his second Royce has that kind of talent Larry had two great years here, give...

    Who to Root For Rest of the Season

    1) Iowa State - obviously, irony is it will hurt OSU twice by beating OU as they need the SOS win vs a top 10 team to stay in the hunt in the BCS standings. 2) Oklahoma State - beast OU!!! This is a bigger game for them than many may think. 3) All Big 10 Team to lose - If I had to pick one-...

    optimism, expectations, disappointment, patience

    coach has fostered all of these feelings thus far in his short head coaching career. Last year vs Utah, this year vs texas...its remarkable that expectations have been created, its disappointing to not be competitive in some of these games, but this team has earned the support and I think they...

    Its time to Mobilize and be Heard

    Its time to make sure politicians in Iowa know this is important and THEY will be impacted if they do not do everything in their power to support Iowa State. The mere possibility of losing something as simple as a Mortgage Interest Deduction while College Athletic Programs continue to profit...
