He had an offer to walk on at Western Illinois but chose to stay close to home to care for his aunt when she got the shingles. Now this Loras Collage product is the second coming Jalen Hurts!

Can we buy out of that Tulane game … that could be a tough road game.
This game will be played at The Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana. EDIT: this is not confirmed and likely will be played on Tulane Campus in the heart of New Orleans.
Either way….
What a great road game for cyclone players and fans!
I’m all for the UNLV/TULANE home and homes.

I rarely ever saw Nebraska come to Ames back in the day and worry that they were going to struggle with our team. I’m not saying it’s impossible (see Ohio), but this is a game you win 95 out of 100 times.
I will do both. With next Saturday, I will have attended 579 of the last 580 home and away ISU football games covering over 451,000 miles
So $128,000 difference.Here's the financial report from 2024.
Based on 2024 numbers and some assumptions I made (i.e. ALL games are the 'same'):
$2,447,010 - per game home ticket revenue ($17.129M/7 home games)
$309,256 - per game Concession, Program, Novelty, Parking revenue ($2.165M/7 home games)
$296,952 - per game Event Staffing expenses ($2.078M/7 home games)
$282,229 - per game Travel expenses ($1.411M/ 5 away games)
Pay G5 team $1.5M to come to Ames -> approximate 'net' = $960k ($2.447M + $0.309M - $0.297M - $1.5M)**
Home/Home with G5 team -> approximate 'net' = $1.088M (($2.447M + $0.309M - $0.297M - $0.282M)/2)**
**I'm not an accountant; I just hate uninformed arguments with people pulling numbers out of the sky, so I will readily admit my methodology may be off.
Numbers don’t lie
Seem to remember playing at Tulsa - that’s the only one I can think of.
Imagine being this stupid.
If he didn’t like it, it would still be gone, Dimwit Lieutenant Danville.
You are amazing!
Ran into @danwbarrett there.
I also smiled watching WV lose there last weekend.
Ohio barely lost @Rutgers this year too.
That program is salty.
That is what Keith Murphy said on Sound Off, I really doubt the ISU athletic department is flush with cash right now, and so buying our way out of the game and then paying someone else to fill that spot on the schedule was not an option. Campbell can be unhappy about it, and still agrees to do it, I am sure he understands the finances at ISU a lot better than we do, and the costs of pulling out of the game.
No, Thank You for spewing inaccurate and uninformed posts and responding with insults to cover for your inability to formulate meaningful responses.
I'd argue it'd be a little more than that because I doubt, we sell as many tickets and concessions for a G5 game as we do for a UCF/ Texas Tech game while undefeated; but yeah, it seems to be a few hundred K by my back of the napkin math. This would also be for 'going forward' matchups and wouldn't account for any type of a buyout.
With the over 100 heat index, I wouldn't mind having Carson Hansen sit this one out. He is a hard runner and we need him ready to go for October and November!
I'd rather see the QB room throw for 400+ yards than our RB room run for 200+. We need to get these WR's going if we want to win a conference title.

That was JP's intent when scheduling those game. Of course, Tulane has gotten very good in that time.
"i'm worried about this game" would def. be words typed out by someone on this board.
