David the MAN Montgomery

Regardless of how this game turns out, time for David stories. What do you remember from his time in Ames? A man among boys when he carried Clones on his shoulders so many times.
I recall that freakish workout routine he started in the debths of an Ames winter.
If you want a step back to see his heart, Google Hunter’s Heartbeat.
Thank You David

Halfway done…

The ladies are halfway through the conference season Sitting at 6-3. Most of us would have been overjoyed with that record prior to the start of conference play. But after seeing how well this team can play I know I feel there were so many opportunities lost. I posted in another thread that a 5-4 second half record is very possible. It could also be worse. BUT, I looked at the schedule again and I firmly believe this team can right itself. If it does it could win every home game and pick up 1-2 on the road. I could see another 6-3 record or even 7-2 IF the defense shores up. What are your thoughts?

Video Doorbell Recommendations?

We have installed cheap Wyze cameras that point at our porch in the past, but we high-level kicked around getting a video doorbell. I’ve been doing a bunch of research, and reviews are all over the place from a technical standpoint, so I was hoping to get reviews from people who might actually have experience with one.

My requirements:

- Battery-powered
- Works seamlessly with Echo Show 15 (although an included chime would be nice)
- Ideally free or inexpensive person/package detection
- Ideally a small footprint
- I am not going to be mad if it is inexpensive

Does anybody have any recommendations, by any chance? I would be super grateful!

Jeff Goodman Drama?

Anyone seeing this go down on X? I’m trying to figure out whats going on, so far I got, some guy made a documentary about Providence and Ed Cooley, a big east X account was taken down and Goodman DM’ed the documentary creator to threaten legal action. He is now getting roasted on X.

That’s all I have so far, I’m not really understanding what Goodmans beef with the doc is but if anyone wants to add some context please do.

Doc is called Devine Providence for anyone that wants to watch.

Feldkamp and such

Step back from the ledge with the posters b itching and moaning about Feldkamp.

All he does is work his as s off in the room and on the mat. Is a great teammate and incredibly well liked, and I’m happy as hell that Will is a cyclone.

Maybe Plott and Keck are just that good, but feldkamp’s going to score some major points for this team in Kansas City.

So Happy for Gilbert

After one of the first games this season I heard Keshon getting interviewed and he didn’t seem totally comfortable yet. I’ve been rooting so hard for his success since then. Just sounded like a super nice kid.

After his dagger three they showed a replay of him running back with a huge smile on his face. Just made me so dang happy for him.

Cyclone Jake Sullivan's role in helping a family and young teen player with OCD

Chole Johnson in a highly rated class of 2028 player here in Minnesota who has been diagnosed with OCD, a general anxiety disorder and selective mutism. A Star Tribune article on Jack Sullivans own struggles with OCD lend the family to talk with him and they credit him with really helping them. In articles and this video the family says Jake was lifechanging for them, maybe even lifesaving. Great story and a great video report. This video, from a newspaper, is 10X better than anything I've seen produced by local TV stations in the last ten years.

Double Cyclone interest with Jake, obviously, and we are recruiting Chloe Johnson so our WBB fans are interested in her. Wherever she ends up I wish it to be the best fit for her unique situation.

What was your second favorite part of Yesterdays KU Game ( not including everyone's favorite Gilbert game ending dagger)?

Is this our first “random guy shooting 25% from 3pt but goes off” in our favor?

I’m not an old head but recall the end of Orr era. I’m trying to remember a time ISU has done to an opponent what seems to so often happen *against* them.

I can recall multiple banked threes from the same player and countless games where we get burnt by the “help off this guy” who shoots ~20% but has a banner day against us.

Maybe something Naders first few games when he started finding his stroke? I honestly can’t think of one though over the last 30+ yrs.

What’s your best, random ISU guy goes off in an uncharacteristic manner you recall?
