Submit Your Questions (and Hot Takes) for the 1/30 Mid-Week Mailbag

[Fitzy]

Let's warm things up since it's so cold outside. In addition to the usual questions, I'll allow you to submit #HotTakes for this week's mailbag and I'll comment on them + rate just how hot your take truly is.

The floor is yours.

 

[Sigmapolis]

Hot Take -- Nobody from this squad goes to the NBA early after this season.

Question -- Who ends up in the next recruiting class? Foster? Terry? Blackwell?

 

[discydisc]

Question: Will Prohm run a two forward lineup this year?
Hot Take: Plain chocolate ice cream sucks.

 

[Gunnerclone]

#HotTake: The Big 12 Title will be a three way split and ISU won’t be one of the three.

 

[FinalFourCy]

Did Lewis get left behind for just not having his ID? If so, is that universal to everyone on the team, and will there be steps taken to avoiding the chance it occurs to an important player? If not, what is Lewis in the teachable moment area for?

Question: Say the ISU nutcup gets a break this year and ISU makes a run to the Final 4 in Minny via Hilton South. What is the most amount of money you would spend to go to the final 4 games (without knowing the history of how much they go for)? When that miracle happens, are you naming a kid Steve Prohm Fitzy (goes by Jeff)?

Hot Take 1: Steve Prohm wins more games than Jeff Prohm
Hot Take 2: Brock Purdy is a Heisman finalist NEXT YEAR
Scorching Take 1: Only serial killers and psychopaths eat plain vanilla ice cream, malts, frozen treats etc etc
Scorching Take 2: Sugar cookies are plain cookies and the worst cookie in a ranking of cookies

I need to go cool off with a lemon lime gatorade after those #hottakes #thebestflavor

Everyone names their Gatorade by color not flavor! Get your finger out off your ***.

 

[cyyote15]

Question: When does Prohm go to timed hockey rotations for line-ups so everyone on Cyclonefanatic will stop b******* about the amount of playing time per player?

 

[EnhancedFujita]

Hot Take: Wigginton doesn't start the rest of the year. Embraces his role as a spark off the bench and we make the 2nd weekend of the tournament.
Hotter Take: Wigginton doesn't show the improvement needed as a point guard to get drafted. Comes back next year playing the 2 guard opposite Halliburton at the 1.

 

[coolerifyoudid]

If you had to pick one, would you rather see ISU win a natty in football or basketball?
Who would be the losing team in that scenario?

Hot take: Lard leads the conference in double-doubles next year

 

[CyberJJJ]

Question: Here at the middle of the Big XII season, who are your first team all conference performers and your first team all freshmen in the conference? or Who is having a better year, the Cyclone MBB team or the Cyclone WBB team?

Hot take: The two freshmen I thought might redshirt at the beginning of the year (Haliburton & Conditt) will jointly average more minutes per game over the full season than the two I was most excited about at the beginning of the year (THT & Zion Griffin) and Zoran Talley who I thought would be in the regular rotation.

 

[FOREVERTRUE]

Hot take: Solomon Young gets denied his medical redshirt and comes back pissed off and leads us to a natty this year grabbing boards like no one else.

 

[LurkingClone]

Question: What is your favorite magnet on your refrigerator right now?

Hot Take: Both Cyclones Men's and Women's Basketball teams win out in the Big 12 Tournaments this year playing Baylor in the title games.

 

[Dandy]

Question: Who wins Big 12 Player of the Year?

Hot Take: With Ohio State locked in with Ryan Day for 4-5 years and the Browns promoting Freddie Kitchens, Matt Campbell will still be at ISU in 2025.

 

[jcyclonee]

Question: Who's that chick that's rockin' kicks?

Hot Take: Gotta be from out of town.

I agree with most of this, but the sugar cookies you can get from hyvee that have that hint of lemon in them are special...I'm pretty sure the kids that bought malt cups at the town swimming pool are in prison now.
