Hey Everyone. I was hoping someone might have more information on this as we're two weeks out from the season. Last year we parked our camper in Vet Med for each game and were able to get in there the night before throughout the season. Will they be doing this again this year? Also, will parking passes need to be bought on Wednesday when they go on sale to be able to park there? I haven't seen a lot of information come out on the parking situation this year, so was hoping one of my fellow Cyclone fans could help me out. Thanks in advance!
First time in a paved lots. Looking for things are helpful tailgating on the pavement. Looking for recommendations on tent weights. Best way to get into D3 I’m going from the north.

It should be another fun year for CJLs squad in Ames this year. We will definitely feel the losses of Cande and Popovic, but it's great to have Jaden & Eleanor back for the season. LOTS of new faces to compete for time on the court, and I expect at least 1 freshman to have a big impact this year. We also welcome Marc Neef as an Assistant Coach as Coach Fiona has moved onto WVU

We return a solid amount of production from last year and have our setter, RS, and 1 OH locked down, but it will be so fun to see position battles, especially for Libero, MB, and that last OH spot.

Texas was voted atop the 2022 Big 12 Volleyball Preseason Poll for a Conference record 12th consecutive year. The Longhorns have been picked No. 1 each season since 2011.
ISU got two players on ESPN's top 100 list this year.
Will McDonald came in at #50 (up from #84 last year). There were two "DE" they ranked higher (Clemson's Myles Murphy #18, and ND's Isaiah Foskey #31). They put Will McDonald as a "DL" though. He is the only "DL" on the top 100. They also had two "DT" ahead of him (Clemson's Bryan Bresee #13, and UGA's Jalen Carter #6).
Xavier Hutchinson came in at #77 overall and the #10 WR.
A defensive player at No. 1? That's just how good Will Anderson Jr. is. Our reporters voted and ranked the top 100 college football players before the start of the 2022 season.
So much to digest here from it. Te'o comes off completely likable and I wound up feeling really sorry for him. While it still seems unconscionable to me that this could happen, the documentary did leave me convinced he was truly duped.
The only part I didn't like is it felt like the producers let the person behind the hoax off way too easy. They seemed to allow her to justify her actions without pushing her on the extreme damage she caused.

Will McDonald and Xavier Hutchison make an appearance. No surprise that there is a suckfest of Ohio State and the SEC either.
