    *** Official West Virginia vs #6 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    Thanks Rulzzz! For whatever reason when I think of West Virginia it makes me smile. Maybe it’s because of all the West Virginia jokes. Here is one you may have heard: Elevator A country bumpkin family from West Virginia decides to go to the Big Apple for the first Time in their lives; Maw...

    *** Official #6 IOWA STATE vs #2 Houston Game(Day) Thread ***

    I thought the fatigue showed. It is a lot to ask a team to play a huge game on Saturday and then go on the road and play a team of Houston caliber on short turn around. Have a little more rest, then maybe we don’t get quite as many fouls and can cause a few more turnovers. The guys gave it...

    *** Official #6 IOWA STATE vs #2 Houston Game(Day) Thread ***

    If I remember right, we appear to have more trouble when we make a quick second pass on a break away. Might help to attack the basket with more dribble before we try to hit someone under the basket. Just a thought.

    Who are your most hated college basketball players...

    Also like the way Rolando Blackman rolled off the tongue. Panamanian kid that played for KSU. Don’t know if Blackman was his given name or something he picked up in the NY playground.

    *** Official #6 IOWA STATE vs #2 Houston Game(Day) Thread ***

    Thanks Rulzzz! In one way this is like an NCAA tournament game in that we have a short turn around and play a very good team after we play a very good team and win. Traveling between venues is the major difference. Two good coaches squaring off. Can’t help but feel that UH is the favorite for...

    The ”hiring process” is what got us Steve Prohm. ADJP knows how to do his job.

    *** Official Texas Tech vs #10 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    Thanks Rulzzz! Texas Tech has been better than advertised this year, as they were originally picked to finish 8th in one preseason poll. Iowa State was picked 7th in the same poll. Currently the teams share second and share first respectively. There is only room for one over achiever in...

    Thanks Rulzzz! TCU head coach Jamie Dixon has a winning record in Hilton ( 4-3). Let’s take care of business and do something about that today. Be loud and make some magic. Go Cyclones!

    Thanks Rulzzz. Good news is we do not have shoot from the camera perch because we are not playing a game of horse. Like our chances. Go Cyclones!

    If ADJP had 15000 seats to fill I would guess he would not cover them up.

    NFL: Who ya got? Super Bowl LVII

    I think if San Francisco wins it predicts the stock market will go up. Give me Brock and the boys.

    Dad Sayings - Words of Wisdom

    Being a farmer it was necessary for my dad to solicit supplies, repairs etc. from the local establishments. Typically we had a good idea what we could find and where, but on occasion some tasks required a little more search to find a solution. If we stopped somewhere without success or where...

    *** Official Kansas State vs #23 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    Thanks Rulzzz! We are blessed because you are a Cyclone. I think KSU has won 5 of the last 7 matchups, even though the last 10 games is even at 5 and 5. Since this year‘s Cyclone team is only accountable for the games yet to be played, hope they bring some energy tonight as it never is easy...
