Moberly was hurt. He wanted to preserve Manske’s redshirt.

How many games did Manske play this year?

Willie Breland commits to Iowa State

 

[BigLame]

Oklahoma State has a head coach that was on the brink of College Football Playoff bid, they have the #1 RB in the portal committed in Caleb Hawkins, the #3 QB in the portal committed in Drew Mestemaker and the #11 WR in the portal committed in Wyatt Young. So I wouldn't be waiting on pins and needles from X posts from their fanbase discussing their inability to survive in today's current landscape.

We saw how JMU & Tulane did in the playoffs, too. Will be interesting to see the makeup of their next 45 players.

Given circumstances, Jimmy is doing well. I’m excited to see the class he puts together after next season.

How many games did Manske play this year?

4, I think

And the make up of our other 52.

Matt Campbell should have waited and not accepted the head coaching job at pedo state his favorite NFL team Cleveland browns fired there head coach this morning MC could have had his dream job

TBH, it will be open again in 3 years when campbell is run out of happy valley. Brilliant timing actually.

On WSU’s signing day page they had Breland as a LB. I’d guess he’s the monster back.

I think someone said earlier that fcmc was jealous of tj and the baketball program with all their national success. It does make one wonder how true this could be

Doubt it.

If he’s run out then they may pass on him in Cleveland

More recent visitors:

OL | Braden Smith – Tarleton State offensive lineman set to visit Iowa State from Jan. 4-6.

DE | De’Arieun Hicks – Gardner Webb defensive lineman set to visit Jan. 5

Yeah it's kinda funny that Campbell's two supposed dream jobs (UM and Cleveland) have both opened up since he signed with PSU.

And almost another with Notre Dame

 

[Stormin]

How many games did Manske play this year?

3. Probably saving the last for emergency.

 

[CycloneVet]

Plus he would be able to coach Sheduer!

Who is feeling a little dangerous I might add. What a dumb ****

 

[Clonedogg]

By my rough count we are up to 45 players that have confirmed either coming back/transfered in/hs juco committed.

That's not counting 10ish 2025 ISU players that have not publicly stated they're staying, but they're not in the portal either.

 

[cyfan964]

Patterson to Wake Forest to play with his brother.

 

[Dandy]

According to 247, Washington State has 29 outgoing transfers and none of them have landed at their new destination. Hopefully those start rolling over to ISU soon.

BOOOOMMMMMMMMMM

It’s interesting that Campbell played Rocco knowing that Rocco was injured and not at 100% and yet he chose not to play Manske during the Cyclones losing streak. How much faith does he really have in Manske? Why did he put Rocco at risk by playing him while he was injured?

Saving his RS?
