Okay, this new study was sort of gross but also failed to distinguish between commercial toilets with high water pressure flush system with the low flow low pressure home gravity tank toilet. Still, for the commercial toilets, damn!

Seems like a big deal.

I feel like this schedule is going to go so far to helping prepare us for March. Last year we just didn't face as much of the top competition in the regular season. We're going to be ready and I'm here for it!

Was listening to Two Guys Named Chris, and laughing listening to Hassel talk about his dad's house. The heat being set at 60, all the curtains shut, and a bright TV.
What's your gripe about going home? Having to sleep on your old, crappy mattress? Your mom getting our your old baby book to embarrass you?

Mine is crappy toilet paper. I don't feel like I buy the nicest stuff but man alive, my parent's TP of choice feels like sandpaper.

Sec 214 row 8.

PM me if interested

Do you keep an emergency bag in your vehicle (winter or all season)? What's in yours?

We have blankets, ice scrapers and ice melt in the vehicles, plus I bought a backpack to hold some of these items:

Folding shovel
Extra socks
Gloves
Yellowstone whiskey
Emergency blanket
Ponchos
Jump Starter power bank
Flashlights
Bandaids-antiseptic
Matches
Hand/foot warmers
Playing cards
Compass/whistle
Paracord
Masks & bandanas
TP
Trash bags

Who’s looked worse or had the biggest decline year to year?

We’re hoping to drive to Ames From Nebraska Wednesday and drive back Friday after watching WBB and MBB. My weather app predicts 6-10” and subzero in that time. Is that forecast consistent with what you’re seeing?

I'm fired up right now, figured I would get the discussion going for our dual with PSU tomorrow.

125- Perryman/Cabanban dec Steen 3-0 ISU - need this one, should be favored to win regardless who we send out

133- RBY dec Attasuav 3-3 ISU - RBY is 2x defending ncaa champion, ramazan looked great against vito

141- Bartlett dec Redding 6-3 PSU - Bartlett was a big recruit out of hs but was wrestling up a weight at 149, wish we had swiderski as we could see this match later on in the year at NCAAs

149- Paniro dec Van Ness 6-6 ISU - Shayne Van ness was a very big recruit out of hs, haven't seen him against elite competition yet in college. Paniro is favored based on his good wins this season but he will have his hands full here

157 - Kraisser dec Barraclaugh 9-6 ISU - this is a tossup imo and one of PSU's weaker weights, will be huge in deciding the dual

165 - Carr dec Facundo 12-6 ISU - Facundo was a highly rated pound-for-pound recruit but like Van Ness has limited experience against elite folkstyle guys in ncaa season. I think he is a much better freestyler than folkstyle.

174 - Starocci Maj Broderson 12-10 ISU - Starocci is the defending ncaa champ at 174. doesn't always light up the scoreboard, have a good chance at minimizing bonus.

184 - Brooks dec Coleman 13-12 PSU - Brooks is the 2x defending NCAA champ. He is really, really good in all positions. Marcus will have his hands full

197 Bastida dec Dean 15-13 ISU - Dean is the defending NCAA champ but I Bastida has looked so good this year. Dean has already dropped a couple of matches this year, as well. He is very good on the mat, will be interesting to see if Yonger chooses down or if Dean chooses top.

Hwt Kerkvliet forfeit 19-15 PSU - I'm assuming with one day recovery schuyler won't be able to go


Really looking forward to this one and really wish we had Swiderski for this one as I think we could win the dual.

I have 2 seats available - only selling as a pair.

Section 109 - Row 11 Seats 1 & 2

$160 for the pair

Four tickets- Section 213 row 11

Wife bought them for $65 a piece- looking for $50 per OBO

Not including pies as that's an entirely different discussion.

Enjoy.

MONDAY MUSINGS: Tre King’s debut, NSD and more

With the NCAA naming a new NCAA CEO last week, what structural or rule changes would you implement if you were in charge of the NCAA.

A few I would implement:

• Get rid of National Signing Days. Athletes can commit any time after their junior year. Athletes can't sign NLI with a school within 72 hours of visiting a school. If athletes break their NLI, they must sit a year and have 4 years eligibility. This puts some teeth on an athletes commitment. And a coaching staff can feel somewhat confident they can stop recruiting to fill a positional need. There would be exceptions, allowing an athlete to break their NLI due to a change in head coach prior to signing day. Or if a school gets put on probation.
• Eliminate the stupid concept of red-shirting athletes. Every athlete in every sport has 5 years and can play 5 years. It's silly to have a 4 game limit for football players to redshirt. Less silly, but still unneeded is a medical 6th or 9th year. Play your 5, get a degree, play professionally or get a job. Make the scholarship available for a graduating HS athlete.
• If I really wanted to shake things up, I would divide schools into 2 groups:
  • Schools that want to participate in a pre- professional model. Athletes in profitable sports are employees of the school. Subject to a collective bargaining agreement where revenue is shared and teams are subject to salary caps. Also, media rights would be collectively negotiated. There would be attendance, alumni financial support requirements, etc. to compete in this pre-professional group.
  • A second group would be created for schools that want to participate in a traditional student-athlete scholarship model. Athletes could earn NIL for marketing deals. But pay-for-play recruiting would be prohibited. Schools that violate would face a 3-10 year sport specific death penalty. Media rights deals would be collectively negotiated. Schools would agree to pay medical costs for a period after eligibility is up. There would also be degree progress requirements to be eligible.

Enjoy!

Looking to buy 1 ticket for Wednesday nights game versus Omaha.

2 seats in 219, row 17 (the very top), seats 16 and 17.

Ideally looking for $30/ticket and I'll throw in the parking pass (pickup this week only in West Des Moines/Waukee)

Sec 237, row 9, seats 5-6
Also C5 parking pass I could put in the mail or pickup in Oskaloosa.
Total $20

Choose to follow her AD from UNLV.

If this team plans to make it past the Sweet 16 they need to learn how to put their foot on people’s throat. They play with no tenacity. Our two time All-American F Joens got owned by their F Siegrist most of the game (which is how you end up with 32 and 12). Siegrist played the entire 40 min for them too. After awhile wouldn’t you take it personal?!?! I know CBF has forgotten more about coaching than I ever will know but I would love to see him get after people. I was waiting for it during the atomic meltdown against UNC out in Oregon. Nothing. Tonight? Nothing. Light a fire, Bill!!!

All in

Looking for 5 tickets together, let me know if you’re selling. Thank you.

I'm having a hard time picking which one was worse so thought I'd poll CF.

Assuming a win over Omaha, I think following with a 3-1 start to the conference is attainable. Baylor in Hilton will be tough, obviously, but not impossible. At OU, IMO, is one of the handful of realistically winnable conference road games. TCU on the road is the one I expect to lose. Then beat a TTech team that seems in a bit of chaos, at home.

Crazy? It would be an awesome start!
