Nov 17th Dual vs Bucknell

Anybody have any thoughts about the upcoming dual on Sunday?

Looks like Carr will have a good match at 157 (if he wrestles?) as Bucknell's Zach Hartman is a returning NCAA qualifier.

Bucknell has another returning qualifier at 197 in Drew Phipps (FYI-he was eliminated from the tournament last year by our own Willie Miklus). I'm assuming Shapiro will start over Duggan. Either way - will be a tough match up.

Expecting a relatively easy win for the team, but should be a good opening opponent.

What does everyone else think?

Xavier Foster Committed To Iowa State

I realize we have a number of threads but felt we need one dedicated just to Xavier joining CyclONEation!!!

@AlexHalsted Iowa State has picked up a commitment from four-star center Xavier Foster. The Oskaloosa (Iowa) native is regarded as the No. 59 overall prospect in 2020 according to the 247Sports Composite and is the fifth-highest rated commit in Iowa State history: http://bit.ly/2OdO6Sv

@AlexHalsted With today's commitment from Xavier Foster, Iowa State now has the No. 14 recruiting class in 2020 according to 247Sports, including the No. 3 recruiting class in the Big 12.
Here's the class that'll sign Wednesday.

@AlexHalsted Xavier Foster's mother said that the family sat down yesterday at 3 p.m. to discuss the decision. "I don't think he knew one way or another, it was kind of a gut feeling. He has aspirations to go to the NBA, we saw Iowa State had more recent success with that."

@ChrisMWilliams Foster’s mom just told the Indians Network stream that Iowa State’s success of putting players in the NBA made an impact on his decision.

@AlexHalsted Top-5 commits for Iowa State, per @247Sports
1️⃣ Craig Brackins
2️⃣ Lindell Wigginton
3️⃣ Talen Horton-Tucker
4️⃣ Matt Thomas
5️⃣ Xavier Foster
6️⃣ Georges Niang
@EvanDaniels Four-star center Xavier Foster just verbally committed to Iowa State, he tells @247Sports. | Story: https://247sports.com/college/basketball/recruiting/Article/Xavier-Foster-Iowa-State-138406515/
“Iowa State, because I felt that they had some guys commit that I had played with and I know I can better myself playing with the everyday,” Foster told 247Sports.
“The play style, and the relationships,” Foster said when pressed on his choice. “I have a good relationship with the players.”
Foster is a significant addition for Prohm and his staff. The 7-foot center ranks No. 59 overall and as the No. 10 center in the 247Sports Composite Rankings.

“We took some time [Sunday] to discuss pros and cons of going each way, but at the end of the day there really isn’t very many cons,” his father Dejuan told IndiansNetwork.tv. “Two great schools, two great staffs. So it was just what he felt more comfortable with and I guess he just felt more comfortable heading over to Ames.”

Home Meal Delivery Services

Been considering looking into these and just wondering if anybody had any advice or thoughts. I live alone most of the time, so I think I would need some flexibility as far as portion sizes or at least delivery intervals. I'm not a picky eater, so I'd be willing to try new foods. Basically I'm just lazy and using you guys instead of having to go to all the websites for research.

2020 Heisman Hopeful Purdy?

Odd time to be drinking the kool aid given all of the bad news and results recently but figured I’d throw a fluff post out. Anyone think Purdy has a real shot to be a pre-season heisman candidate? Or even be a real threat some time next season? I think he caught some more national attention with that 4th quarter performance yesterday.

Tayvonn Kyle Starter

I didn’t catch this until I read the postgame notes, but apparently Tayvonn Kyle made his first start at corner yesterday.

I know he came in as a wideout, and I know he’d been playing more lately. Looks like he had a decent game. Anyone have any more insight on this?
