    Brian Peavy in jail

    I don't get the troll thing on this. True fans like to see there program repped well. I am sure Peavy is fine young man but a bad decision was made and I think it should be made clear the coaching staff sees it that way. It seems to be what Campbell is building this program on after all.

    Brian Peavy in jail

    You are spot on. If you are going to show the public your facility signage mandating that players use the word "please". Then you better let the public know it is unacceptable when a player vandalized property, ran from police, and gets arrested only when an officer has him at gun point. The...

    Campbell, Peavy, and character...

    I know plenty of you have zero concern about Peavy's Thanksgiving police encounter and the following punishment from Iowa State (or lack thereof) - if you don't care move on I suppose. For anyone else, is there something I am missing here? Campbell preaches about character and representing...

    ***Post game thread- ISU vs Cincy***

    People aren't complaining about a loss, they are complaining about how it happened.

    ***Post game thread- ISU vs Cincy***

    Hard to understand how after the "tough to take" loss to Gonzaga (per Prohm) it is even possible for the EXACT sloppy ending to not only the OT of this game but regulation as well. The obvious direction to the team in all of these situations is Monte to the basket, if it's not there, dish it...

    Campbell's Watch

    What in the world was Campbell looking at on his wrist about once every 30 seconds? Was he more concerned about the number of steps on his Fitbit than the scoreboard or what? Is there some special wrist-worn football tool I am unaware of?

    Missing Siberian Husky - West Des Moines

    Hoping some fellow Cyclones can help! Last seen late Friday night in the neighborhood east of Jordan Creek.

    Burton's minutes

    Matt Thomas was typically guarding WV's best driver on the perimeter. In today's college game staying in front of someone is more of challenge than ever given perimeter fouling rule changes. Defense is not as simple as not letting a driver get past the primary defender - it is also about the...

    Depth Problem?

    The depth "issue" was talked about well before Naz exiting the rotation. It doesn't change the fact that it seems we have had at least one guy sitting on the bench who obviously can contribute (I think most of us knew this before this game) while starters are playing 35+ minutes, are winded...

    Depth Problem?

    So did/does ISU really have a depth problem? There have been the questions about Ashton or even Carter getting more minutes for quite a while from the fan base. Any theories as to why these guys haven't been getting time?

    Prohm

    It seems you did not read the original post very well - here it is again: I think everyone can agree this year's team lacks some intensity and perhaps direction at times. One can't help but wonder if this isn't something that starts at the top. After just watching what might be the most...

    Prohm

    I am sorry but you just aren't right. For anyone to suggest a coach is not responsible for outcomes of their team while blaming the amateur athletes playing for the team is outrageous. Many coaches would love to have most of these guys on their roster - they are good players. However, even...

    Thanks for your insight. I can see how you have racked up all your posts.

    Prohm

    Fred's teams routinely had intensity issues as well - this was talked about throughout his time at Iowa State. Steve Prohm is the current coach regardless of who coached these players in the past. If he cannot get his team to buy in that is not a failure of the players, that is a failure of a...

    Prohm

    HE IS CURRENTLY GETTING PAID BY IOWA STATE TO COACH THIS TEAM, FRED IS NOT.

    Prohm

    I think everyone can agree this year's team lacks some intensity and perhaps direction at times. One can't help but wonder if this isn't something that starts at the top. After just watching what might be the most intense team in college basketball (West Virginia), which happens to be...

    Coaching Versus Execution

    You are proving my point in that you can't separate strategy and execution (they go hand in hand). To be honest, if you think the strategy against Baylor in the last minutes of the game "was there", I have to assume you did not watch the game. Maintaining a defensive strategy that focuses on...

    Coaching Versus Execution

    I see a lot people making comments that separate coaching and execution on the court. I think that is terrible mistake to do so - with one day until March a team's ability to execute is in large part a result of coaching. Iowa State has shown numerous times an inability to close out games...

    Sick puppy

    So tough. As an animal lover the most compassionate thing you can do is fully step out of your shoes as human/"owner" and make those amazingly tough decisions solely in the best interest of your friend. Best of luck in your decision.
