Very scary deal. Amazing he took the mat Saturday morning feeling like he was. Here's to hoping for a full recovery and the wrestling community rallying around him and his family.

Thanks so much to @WhatchaGonnaDo for today’s topic!

“If you could go back in time and see anyone in concert, who would you see?”

My personal answers are (each in their prime):

- Bowie
- Prince
- Rolling Stones

What are yours?

My wife has an old IRA as well as a Roth IRA with the same large broker. I'm thinking of doing a Roth conversion on this IRA. I'd like to pay these taxes with some funds I have in a non retirement account. How does this work? Do I just send the government a check? Will waiting until the 4th quarter make it easier?

Just moments after leading North Texas to the NIT championship. They played a really slow, grind you out style this year, they may have been the slowest team in the entire country in terms of pace of play.

Good luck on your next school Caleb.
Didn’t end well but the fans have the North Carolina game memories.

100-62 Let's Go!!

Hopefully the rain holds off. If only there were a stadium with a roof within 90 miles they could play at instead...

My wife took on a treasurers fob for a small non-profit, previously the books have been on paper and I am trying to setup up a Drive spreadsheet to help make reporting easier. I have the first sheet as a report sheet and sheets 2-13 as monthly ledger. I would like to have cell b6 on sheet one as a reference for the sheet of the monthly report, instead of changing each cell manually every month. When I use =b6!i50 I get an error, unresolved sheet name. If I use =January!i50 I get the correct number, how do I assign b6 as the sheet name, so we just type in the month of the report and all cells change.

With the draft approaching, I was just wondering, if Iowa State was known as [position] U, what position would you want it to be?

For me, I would choose O-Line (just barely ahead of D-Line)

I think if you're doing things right up front, everything else becomes a lot easier & O-lineman are so valuable in the NFL

There is nothing cooler in sports than the image of five BIG, talented O-lineman striding up to the LOS to take their positions knowing that they are about to impose their will on the other team's defense

Hi gang,

Later this week is April First, AKA April Fools' Day. In observance of that, this week at OTN we're looking for songs with titles/lyrics that contain the word "Fool." Variations of the word are also allowed such as Fooled, Fooling and Foolin'.

The team making up OTN weekly are @cyclones500, @CycloneRulzzz and me.

Last week Rulzzz posted the topic, which was I Wish. You can find it here: https://cyclonefanatic.com/forum/threads/on-that-note-i-wish.278089/

*******

My First 5...

Today - Addy Brown 6'3" Wing gets to perform

They have been on thin ice for a few years now but still too bad for the students and community.
On a positive note, people can stop paying their alumni dues.

Opening Day now just 2 days away so figured I would start this thread up.

See some of the different sites "experts" are making their Season Predictions. Here are the ones from MLB.com:

I like that they've gone back to the old-school symmetrical lines within the circle, but am not a fan of the new font. Makes it look kind of like an oil/gas sign IMO. Thoughts?

Hello there.

I know this thread is normally one started in the fall a few weeks before the basketball season begins, but with so much about the roster already changing and changes coming through portal season, I thought I would start it now and lean on the Bart Torvik ("BT") preseason projections @JStanz51 featured here.

The "vanilla" BT projections right now have Iowa State as the #54 team in the country next year --



I think you all would notice that roster is incomplete and thus incorrect -- Robert Jones is confirmed to be returning for his fifth season, I think CW's article about Tre King makes it clear he is going to be back for another season, and while we have not heard any official word, I think the rumor is Hason Ward will return.

So adding those three back gives you --



Iowa State is now projected as the #30 team in the country. The updated offensive efficiency would be tied for #59 in the country (with the College of Charleston) and the defense would be #14 in the country (slightly behind San Diego State and ahead of Arkansas). Last year was #30 overall, #122 offense, and #7 defense.

As I have mentioned before, the BT model for offense depends on the offensive rating of the players on the roster while the defense is projected as a "steady state" year-to-year. So the model thinks adding Omaha, Milan, and Williams will improve the offense while the defense is more about team culture and coaching.

Here are the teams around #30 in the country from this season. Iowa State being #30 again is a funny coincidence. All of them made the tournament save mid-major North Texas in the NIT --



I will update this periodically if and when there is further action in the transfer portal. The team clearly needs more backcourt depth. That being said, assuming TJ and Kyle Green can coach the same fire on defense into them, the roster next year as it is right now already has the potential to be very competitive.

Much is going to depend on Omaha and Milan being "hits" pretty quickly and Williams returning to form after the injury. Lipsey is going to need to be a dude with that many minutes and that usage, too.

Nobody seriously hurt. And just to add insult to injury, the tire comes back and smacks the car one more time...

We have 306,000 alumni. If only half care about sports and those people gave $5 a week to We Will, that would be $40 million per year.
There is your gauntlet. If you can’t do $5 a week, try $2.50 a week. If you can do more, do it.
I personally live out of state so I’ve committed to a sum I think would be equal to what I’d spend going to FB and BB games for tickets, gas, food, drink. For those in a similar situation, you might consider giving more.
