Essentially, QB's were getting the ball out in 2-3 seconds. So Heacock decided it didn't make sense to waste a 4th DL rushing when they aren't going to be able to get there that fast and just add a DB to coverage to take out a passing window.


Sorry I'm a little testy about misinformation this morning, I have a Construction client from Idaho arguing with me about how he paid a couple of his workers because he "saw a video about it on you tube" and the video is completely wrong.

I hate that crap too. Tell him you have forgotten more than he knows. That always helps

I just become Amish on April 15 that way I don’t have to pay taxes. Then switch back on the 16th.

Essentially he had an employee mark "Exempt" on his W4 so my client is arguing that the employee marking exempt makes his $60K pay in 2025 exempt from reporting and taxes. Which is not true at all. Marking "exempt" on your W4 just means you elect to not have taxes withheld from your pay check, you still have to report it via a W2 and file/pay taxes.

But youtube told him that so he's the expert.

The 401k is a scam and I've decided to conduct myself under common law and the Treaty of Peace and Freedom.

Now let me travel in peace or you'll be subject to my fee schedule

Imagine how large of an athlete that ISU's "statue" would be with this comparison....

TT : humble brag??? Kind of dumb...

Imagine how large of pile it would be if you took the ****, all of these players have pooped in the last year and piled it together. Just as relevant as dumb stuff like that.

Tomorrow is the last day to enter the portal for football players, except those playing on Monday for the title. Most colleges start class Monday as well, so those who don't commit soon will be left behind. Prices are falling and falling fast for players, so there could be some great deals out there for programs who didn't burn through their budget already

A player that entered the portal could wait until the summer to decide. The amount of money each school has left in their revenue sharing pool would be limited. However, the player could potentially sign NIL deals at the new school.

So does Matt Campbell get any credit for future Iowa State success? Or is credit given completely for rebuilding the roster after Campbell gutted it. IMO a lot of our transfers over estimated their value.

Completely the opposite. His legacy will be more impacted by how he left and gutted the team. Maybe time changes that, but success by CJR will bury Matt. Too many people with too many hard feelings. IMO.

I could me mistaken, but I believe “Duclona” is French for “Two Cyclones…”

 

[MTCyclone43]

Who's quote is "it's too hard to get defensive linemen to come to Iowa State"? I have never heard anyone say that.

I did not attribute the quote to anyone because it was meant to be a generic quote of the collective, sorry for the confusion.

 

[GP4ISU]

Yeah, I don't think a single coach or anyone associated with the program ever said the reason for the switch was because it was hard to recruit the D-line. I think CW and Blum said many times that it was the hardest position to find talent, so it made sense to play more linebackers and d-backs. But I don't think they ever said that was the reason for the change. The idea was just to get more speed on the field to defend the spread offenses that were ravaging the conference at the time. It worked, so we stuck with it.

Just based on who we put in the NFL during the Campbell era, I'd argue the O-Line was our least talented position group and the one we had the most trouble recruiting, especially high school guys. Some of our best players ended up being transfers.

Agree. And no excuse for it, given our proximity to Midwest farm kids. That’s gonna change under CJR.

I would assume employee could also face tax penalties for underreporting taxes throughout the year?

Well they aren't reporting those wages at all because youtube told them if they mark exempt on the W4 they don't have to report it on quarterly payroll tax filings or a W2.

His exact quote was "this is a new trend for paying employees".

 

[Mesaclone1]

Has there been any word on Kuzdzal...good or bad? Are we still pursuing him or have we moved on...anyone have ANY recent information on this kid? He looks to me like a helluva prospect...I guess I'm still hanging on to a thread of hope we nab him!

Only when it is from the Duclona area of france. Otherwise it is known as "sparkling Cyclones."

The portal is busy today and the Amish pay taxes.

That’s all it takes to avoid taxes!? Sign me up!

The sovereign citizens are my favorite on TikTok. I like it when they yell, "I don't consent to being arrested!" as they're getting dragged out of their cars.
