Abu Sama (2023 ATH - SEP)

enisthemenace
I looked for a thread on this kid, but didn’t see one. Dropped a 24’1” long jump last night. It was his 2nd jump I believe, jumping 24’ on his 1st attempt. I’ve seen it being mentioned as top 5 in the nation this year, but I’m not sure what age level that is, because I’m pretty sure it’s close to top 5 in the world for U18:

He’s very explosive as a running back, but damn…kid would easily get a track scholarship and possibly an Olympian at some point. Crazy numbers for a junior in high school.

Any Experience with Top Dressing a Lawn

spierceisu
I know the City of Ankeny will reimburse for 50% of the cost of top dressing a yard as part of a Soil Quality Restoration program. This is from newer construction where the soils are not good because the top soil is stripped off as part of the building/grading process. My house was built in 2016 so it would qualify and I have been working really hard to get the yard looking good. Has anyone had experience topdressing the soil with compost? Was it worth the money? I got a quote and if they reimburse I am willing to do it, but don't want to throw my money away. The quote is for 1/2" of compost spread out and includes aeration and overseeding.

Don't let 'em get hot: Iowa State's KC success hinges on first matchup

Since the 2014 Big 12 Tournament, the trend surrounding Iowa State's results in Kansas City holds one absolute. Either the Cyclones are downed in their first game or they go on a run and win the whole damn thing. There's something about making it to the semifinal round that catapults this program

NCAA Tournament Brackets and Draws

CyCloneRastlinG
I know @theshadow is much better at setting this all up and making it look nice. But I figured we’d start a thread for our draws once brackets are released. Brackets will start being released at 5pm CST I believe. It’s go time!

Free - 2 x tickets to see Joe Purdy tonight at 8:00pm at the M-Shop

ccruzen
Wife isn't feeling well so would love for someone to use our tickets to see Joe Purdy at the M-Shop tonight.
And yes, still one of my favorite lines:

Joe Purdy - Ode to Sad Clown

"I got caught in this whistlin' wind
Doing my best to regret these sins
But, Lord, would forgive me
If you know I'm gonna do it again

And it's not that I'm not sorry Lord
Oh, it's just that I'm not strong
Cause when that woman looks at me
I can't remember right from wrong"

Anyone seen The Batman (2022)? - Spoilers...

ISUcyclones11
Just got home after that and all I can say is....

...that was not a good movie. Pattinson was great and the cinematography was fantastic.

However, the last fifth or so of that movie derailed it entirely. I don't see how everyone is rating this so highly.

The dialogue was forced and forgettable, and the cheated in a lot of scenes. I laughed out loud at the semi trailer forming a perfect ramp, and Batman solves riddles faster than I can do a wordle.

Also, the mayor-elect swimming around perfectly right after being shot was horrendously bad.

One of you is going to have to explain to me why everyone else thinks this is good because i just don't see it

Traveling to Tahoe...needs ideas

dahliaclone
Sun Country is having a huge deal on flights. Booked roundtrip tickets to Lake Tahoe/Reno for $128 round trip. That's unheard of.

I've been to Tahoe but it's been a number of years. Better half has never been. Need ideas where is best to stay for those who haven't been there before. Good restaurants, good views, outdoor stuff but not skiing (going early October).

Thanks!

Nebraska Memorial Stadium Market Survey Results

cyinne
It looks as if Nebraska is in the works of planning an update to Memorial Stadium and is looking to get input from the masses to get thoughts on certain topics surrounding the expansion/remodel of Memorial Stadium. The survey includes quite a few categories that include alcohol and sports gambling.

I know we are not Nebraska fans and "who cares" but I thought it was interesting look into many things that I think we are all asking questions about concerning our fan base from time to time. I think that it would be nice to get this kind of survey from ISU to get a good feel as to where the fans think Jack Trice Stadium should go in the near and distant future.

Big 12 Tournament/P&L Thursday/Weather

dahliaclone
It's gonna be cold in KC on Thursday. I know P&L has big above-head heaters they often use but have a feeling this will be one of the coldest days in recent memory during the tournaments. I think many will want to be inside one of the restaurants/bars as much as possible that day so actually emailed a few places to see if they're doing any sort of table reservations and they are. So I just reserved a table for 8. Will be nice to have a home base/place inside!

McFadden's and Shark Bar both are taking reservations, FYI.

Residential Solar Panels

VTXCyRyD
I've been looking at adding solar to my house. I think about 6000-7000w worth of panels will offset my cost of purchasing from the power company. I would like to do the installation (roof installation, running wires, mounting hardware) myself and then have a licensed electrician "friend" come over and do the final wiring. It looks like ROI might be around 8 years, and I don't plan on moving so after that I can reap the rewards.

Has anyone here done something like this? Who did you purchase panels, inverters, and mounting kit from? Has your ROI been close to what was calculated?
