    Did ISU get a commit today?

    I'd agree with that. The fact that we have turned the tide in the football series I think has a lot to do with eastern Iowa players exploring ISU. I do know that Iowa has called the HS coach of one of our current MAC players to see if he was unhappy. Is that legal? In response to DJK15: I...

    Did ISU get a commit today?

    2001 Assumption grad here. I feel like the MAC is turning and looking more at ISU than years past. Maybe Lichtenberg can help matters, especially among the Bettendorf pipeline at U of I. Current rosters of MAC players: Iowa - Vandervelde, Angerer, Greenwood, Sandeman, King from Burlington...

    Kyle Kelm

    Kelm is from Randolph, Wis. which is a small town about 45 minutes north of Madison in central Wis. They produced Greg Stiemsma who played at UW (graduated this year) and several other small college players (UW-Green Bay and something like UM-Duluth). Stiemsma came off the bench and were it not...

    Favorite World City

    All of New Zealand particularly Christchurch, Wellington or Queenstown. One day you're on a glacier hiking/sliding around, the next day you're 60 feet underground floating down a river. Not to mention, bunjy jumping, skydiving, hang gliding and any other extreme sport you want to throw in. One...

    Eye of the Storm Award - Tyler Swanson

    A series in the ISU Daily on this story from Dec. of 2004... The Daily also had multimedia with it which was pretty cutting edge at the time, but it looked like the link to it was gone in the archives. Part 1 Driven off course - Sports Part 2 A late-night phone call - News Part 3 On the...

    I want LA Pomlee to be a Cyclone

    Re: LA Pomlee to be a Cyclone We want LA not for what he did or did not do in the state tournament, but for what the staff can get him to do in the Big 12 Best thought so far IMO. I've wavered first saying we need him and then digressing to he's a project and we can do better after his...

    anybody know the situation with Pomelee?

    Here is what I can add, and I have been vocal on the Pomlee topic for a while... GMac was at his substate final game against Bettendorf which was on the eve of the KU game for ISU. The game I saw against Assumption wasn't his best game, he was worked by two smaller posts one of which was a...

    Vegas Hotel Information - UNLV Game

    Has the alumni association come out with any recommendation on hotels? Just the talk of this weekend six months ahead of time is exciting. Cedar Rapids I believe has the Alliegence (sp) option, but us in Eastern Iowa have decent options through Moline (not direct anymore :( ) price-wise I...

    Mediacom worst cable company?

    In response to Mediacom not knowing what they are talking about: I called to get cable and internet and they gave me one price, then I called again about 10 minutes later clarify the internet speed and the cable channels and they gave me another price which was about $60 lower per month for one...

    Tasheed Carr sighting on ESPN2

    That is my memory as well... "Tasheed, No" as Wayne waves his finger in the air at him.

    Pomlee and Dport Central to state

    Staple is the same comparison I came up with when I first saw him. Great minds think alike!

    Pomlee and Dport Central to state

    His final three is ISU, Wisconsin and West Virginia with Wisconsin I believe being his stated No. 1 choice. Again he is a late commit being a senior this year so I don't what he's waiting for. I don't even know what offers he has. I posted it only because McDermott was at the game, meaning that...

    Pomlee and Dport Central to state

    That is the only reason I argue for us grabbing him. There is no better example than the KU situation.

    Pomlee and Dport Central to state

    McDermott was amoung the standing room only contingent who made the trip to the QC to watch LA Pomlee and No. 2 Central defeat No. 6 Bettendorf and advance to state in 4A. He had 19 and 15, but didn't lead his team in scoring. I've said this here before, at 6'8 Pomlee will get his stat line with...

    Rahshon Clark Article

    Good to see ISU news consistently reaching the Quad Cities. The Times has done an OK job of covering ISU athletics and let's hope they keep it up. If they see a lot of web hits on stories like this it might make it more worth their while to make the trip past EIU and onto Ames.

    Who besides Appleton?

    I would think Gatens would have been the creme of the AAU circuit, just like it appears to me this HS season where he has the Gatorade POY locked up. Anyone care to argue that now that Gibbs broke his wrist?

    Who besides Appleton?

    Pomlee went for 27 and 12 for the 4th ranked Blue Devils last night as they won the MAC. They'll likely need to get past Bettendorf at substate and then more of you folks can catch him at state. I still think ISU can find someone better. Pomlee wouldn't help us for a while IMO. Davenport...
