    New Commit: JUCO CB Lonnie Johnson

    It's a question for some whether we want short-timer jucos and tranfers in bulk to wear a jersey for 1 or 2 years, or qualifiers that sign out of high school and assimilate into the university, to represent the university. Has ISU scholarshipped an iowa kid in MBB since pre-Fred? No! Fred...

    New Commit: JUCO CB Lonnie Johnson

    Well, for some it can be more about what you're proud of representing your university - short timer non-qualifiers and transfers, or qualifying high school kids who sign and actually assimilate into the university, instead of just wearing a jersey on the field/court. Campbell is doing great so...

    New Commit: JUCO CB Lonnie Johnson

    How many of the JUCOs signed previously and in this class were non-qualifiers? Can not give you the exact number, but can confidently state, given my experience with juco programs, that the vast majority of juco players that are talented enough to move on to a D1 Power school, were...

    New Commit: JUCO CB Lonnie Johnson

    On another note...I'm wondering why no hawk trolls are badmouthing our recruits...hmmm...seems oddly quiet from them on that front these days. Does ISUcc FB or MBB have limits or concerns with how many non-qualifiers they can sign? Don't they already have have 10 or 11 jucos returning from...

    Depth chart talk - going into dead recruiting period

    Hey, couple more commits and Cyclones will be able to field the very top Former Jucos football team in the nation. Better be winning at least 6 games in the future before APR takes a beating for 5-7 bowl purposes.

    *** Official Iowa vs #4 IOWA STATE Game(day) Thread ***

    So classy. Original too! Now heep on some more ridicule of a young kid's natural appearance in a public forum, and you will have hit a home run. Congratulations. Keep up the good work.

    Countdown untill the beatdown!!!

    Might be true. But don't be surprised if Uthoff gets drafted ahead of Georges. Fred offered several of the Iowa players. He didn't get them, and then loaded up on Jucos and transfers.

    College Football Playoff Rankings (Nov. 10)

    That is never going to happen, nor should it. It would totally ignore body-of-work, and reward only the teams Vegas thinks are the best bet at week 14. The best team does not always win. The best team at week 14 may have had important players suspended or injured and lost games early in the...

    Initial College Football Playoff Rankings Released

    Perhaps your time and energy would be better spent focusing on the 5-7 bowl threads, and the new crop of jucos Rhoads is recruiting.

    Next Coach Possibility (just putting this out there)

    Actually i believe the neighbors to the west would be happy to have Bo Pelini get a decent contract at ISU. I believe they get a credit on the buyout for what he earns elsewhere, and ISU would surely pay him more than Youngstown. That foul-mouthed maniac was an embarrassment to every self...

    Big Ten

    ISU unfortunately has very little to enhance the B10, in either eyeballs for the big money sport where they have little tradition or history of success, or university academic stature that ranks as high as B10 members. The B10 is more than just athletics. There are other expectations involved...

    my thoughts have changed.

    How can it be said this current team is young? I didn't run through the entire roster, but we have a senior QB, experienced OL, experienced receivers, red shirts galore, including all the junior college kids on defense who come in as upper classmen, and many of whom are also red shirts. Young?

    For those with kids? How do you?

    Bring in more and more boatloads of jucos and transfers, and convince him to be so proud of them.

    Where to find what Iowa fans are saying?

    Don't forget Transfer U, or JukeTran University

    Were we interested in the kid the Hoks landed?

    This is very true. ISU should definitely go with more jucos - it's a better fit for ISU. And add some more transfers, including transfers dismissed from other programs. It fits the ISU definition of intercollegiate athletics as well as intercollegiate student athletes. It has proven to win...

    Will this controversy of the future of the B12 ever stop?

    True in general. But Lee Barfknecht himself is very objective IMO. As CW said, Lee a pro. I enjoy reading him. I am NOT a Corn fan - just the opposite. Lee will bash the Husker program when it's deserved - most recently Pelini and and questioning the AD who was on record for supporting him...

    $99 mini-pack (UNI, IA, game of choice)

    Sorry, I stand corrected. It's Family 'and Consumer' Sciences. Earlier this year I saw an ISU basketball roster that included majors. It was listed for about half of the roster. I think they took it down - can't find it anymore. I think it's another name for Home Economics.
