Caught Yonger in this photo of Team USA training on Twitter this morning. The thought of him in the room with all these guys is making it very hard to keep waiting for the season to start.

If you haven’t watched Coach Mouser’s interview about the tight ends, you must do so. Not only does he give tons of insight about the tight ends, you see why Campbell has promoted him quickly as a coach. Very impressive.

Maybe they’ll be even better than last year and repeat, but I feel like they maybe caught lightning in a bottle last year and are going to have a difficult time repeating.

Welcome back to “On That Note,” CF’s weekly go-to for music exploration since 2017 ... hosted by @MeanDean, @CycloneRulzzz and cyclones500. I’m your host for this segment.

This time, we seek songs that include reference to weight or mass: pound, ton, ounce, gram, et. al., in title or lyrics. We also accept the word “weight”; forms of the word “heavy” (literal and metaphoric)… and forms of “light” (but NOT in visual context). (Also not allowed - “pound” as in UK money designation).

• In case you missed it: Last week’s OTN: Think

A couple of mine, to get us going.

“I was a little too tall, could’ve used a few pounds.”

So we are having a discussion tonight about how much it costs to light the bridge each night? Anyone with more knowledge then this group of rumdums have any idea?

CFTV: Iowa State coaches and players talked a pair of position groups with less than three weeks remaining before the season opener against SE Missouri St.

Reading the name of Dustin Avey in the aforementioned thread; it made me think about some other FB players from that era….

Kevin Wilson - Cyclone lore for the blocked punt.

Matt Straight

Tom Radke

Dave Brcka - 4 yr starter, now an Ortho surgeon.

Derik Clark - MLBer was gonna make panthers roster as an UDFA until a back injury.

Todd Bandhauer (sp) - engineering professor at CSU.

Marc Lillibridge - probably before Avey. Sports agent.

Todd Doxson - son is a WO now.

Ed Williams - talented WR.

TD - of course!!

Just going down memory lane….

I was looking at the all time rankings after JJ Kohl's ratings boost and saw Walter Nickel sitting at number 8. I didn't remember much about him as I didn't follow recruiting at the time, and when I looked him up, I found that he passed away less than a year ago. I don't remember reading about it here, and thought it was worth sharing. He went on to become a doctor in the Navy, and appears to have had a big but young family at the time of his passing.

I am looking to seed some small patches of my yard that I accidentally sprayed with Roundup. They are patches about 4-6" in diameter. I looked online and it says seed Mid-August to Mid-September. I overseeded last fall so my lawn is pretty good except for these spots. I know it has been dry, but the extended forecast looks relatively cool for highs. Should I seed the spots now or hold off? I also plan on aerating later this fall so I was hoping to get the grass started before I aerate.

Concert on Sept 3rd.
Remove existing and install new after the concert.
Home game on Sept 11th vs Niners.

Is that even possible to get a whole field done and rooted and safe to play on in that time frame? Am I going to jinx Chuck Bruce's health by even bringing up this question?

Can anyone tell me if there is WiFi available in the VetMed parking lot while tailgating? We are trying this out for the first time and wondering how everyone gets access to the game on TV while staying there? Thank you in advance!

Hey all, wondering if there are any Cyclone fans out there who work in film? I've been making my way into post-production, and trying to make contacts within the community here and there -- and I realized I've never asked this particular community if there's anybody out there working in the industry?

Ben Kueter from Iowa City HS just won the U20 world championship in Bulgaria for wrestling at 97 kg. He's a top 10 overall pound for pound recruit in wrestling. He is a Iowa football and wrestling commit- a 4 star linebacker, 2x state wrestling champ, and also a standout in baseball + T&F. It got me thinking he has to be high on the list of best Iowa HS athletes of all time. Some others that came to mind:

Tim Dwight - won a billion T&F titles + elite all state football

Jeff Clement - Broke the national all time hs homerun record, don't remember if he played other sports though

Jeff Horner - 4x elite all state basketball, standout in football, baseball, and track

Harrison Barnes - At times was the consensus #1 overall bball recruit in the country, did some high jump and long jump in T&F but otherwise didn't play any other sports

Austen Arnaud - One of the best HS quarterbacks I have seen play in person. Also played basketball, baseball, and ran track, was a standout in all 3 but not near as elite as he was in football


Who did I leave off the list?

Selling my D3 full season Parking Pass for $700.00. Can meet in Ames, DSM, or do paypal or Zelle.

Hey all! Yesterday I posted that I had a Naz Long practice Jersey signed by Naz and Matt Thomas and was looking to sell it on eBay but needed a suggestion on price. They stated I should post it in this thread as people here care about ISU. I don’t really know how much to sell it for but I’ll take best offer. I have attached pictures of the jersey below. (It is reverseable)

Looking to purchase 4 lower level tix to Baylor game on 9/24 for some family friends. Thanks!

Just a general question... why doesn't the Big12 channel mention Iowa State in their self promo commercials during breaks? I've listened to this station for years.

I've heard:

Bevo on the 40 acres, Boomer Sooner, Rock Chalk not getting old, TCU fight em on the ice in hell, Pistol Pete, EMAW, Baylor Line, Red Raider and even the Mountaineers.

Why not ISU fights? Or where they sing Bells of Iowa State?

I tried reaching out to them here but chrome blocks the site:


Not sure if its a big deal but I've always thought it needed to be mentioned, especially with David Archer being on that show.

Looking to buy or trade a G6 pass for a D3 pass.
