    Dear Houston

    I agree that Shead played like the best point in the nation in this game. However I think it looked a little better than it could have been. If they actually call that push off the first or second time he does it he isn't quite as open on those step back threes. His scoring line doesn't look...

    Dear Houston

    But a lot of the top Big 10 teams had their big plodder, a somewhat limited big plodder on the bench and a good but young, up and coming big plodder as the ace card also on the bench. Kansas just has a guy who is definitely good but if he faces officiating in either tournament that is looking...

    Dear Houston

    First time Sharp went to the FT line I thought it was their power forward because his body looked a bit like King's. Then I realized he was their 2/3 guard.

    This looks like a chart of the profile of all of the moulding in my grandparent's house.

    Time for a Real Discussion About Caitlin Clark

    I'm pretty sure Murph is smarter than both sides of that split personality combined.

    Time for a Real Discussion About Caitlin Clark

    Yet in this thread there are comments how we can't include NAIA or precursors to the NCAA (Pearl Moore, anyone?) because people scored more there. What she has done is amazing. Let's just not get stupid and go overboard with it.

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

    Thanks, Rulzzz. Let's do this. The moment has rarely been too big for this team so it comes down to which team is better able to play their game and execute. GO CYCLONES!!!

    49ers - Brock Purdy - Still and Always #1

    As a Cowboys fan I would take Purdy over Dak. And I like Dak.

    49ers - Brock Purdy - Still and Always #1

    He was coming off of major throwing arm surgery this offseason. I have no doubt that he could increase his arm strength a bit over this year with a full offseason to train again.

    49ers - Brock Purdy - Still and Always #1

    It is the same reason I hated it when the NCAA selection committee used "last 5" and "last 10" metrics a few years ago. Sure a team, or in this case a player, may look better later in a season but there can be a lot of factors that influence that including the competition you face (your...

    49ers - Brock Purdy - Still and Always #1

    Look at the replay again. The line of scrimmage was the 21. It just looks like there is an O lineman offside because the initial pass (lateral) was so far back that it reset everything much further back. No O linemen were a yard past the 21. But more importantly, it was a pass caught behind...

    STORY: Free throws, clutch play lift Iowa State to second win over AP top 10 team

    Once again, 'Twister Sisters' is great. It is original and gets to the heart of it. It isn't a diminutive version of Cyclones like 'Lady Cyclones.' I love Twister Sisters but I don't want to hearken back to the '70s and before when we couldn't just recognize the women's teams as on par with...

    Iowa State is the new Press Virginia

    I think Eustachy did something similar once but for different reasons. It was against Morningside, I think. The team was playing terribly and were in a dogfight with a team they should have rolled. There was a timeout and when they came over Larry stopped them and said something like, "You...

    Best Iowa State point guard

    Walk on in name only. In football terms he would be something like a greyshirt. Johnny found him when he had all of this scholarships full but Johnny still wanted him so he promised him a sophomore scholarship if Jeff walked on as a freshman. He was only a walk on because the scholarship...

    STORY: Free throws, clutch play lift Iowa State to second win over AP top 10 team

    Yeah, I never said that we shouldn't use nicknames for the team. I just am not a fan of a diminutive form of Cyclones. It is just too easy to characterize them as something just a little bit less than "real" Cyclones.

    Larry Morgan used to be decent but I just think he doesn't have it anymore.
