    TCU Game Predictions

    I'm most worried about TCU making a focused effort to get Young in foul trouble. But if he brings half of what he brought Wednesday I feel good about it. Very tough matchup without his presence.

    Surprise guest for TCU

    Saw the tweet days ago. Niang will be there - which I'm sure everybody above knew. NBA All-Star break. So he comes home...

    *** Official IOWA STATE VS Kansas State Game(Day) Thread ***

    Mississippi Valley State. 12/20 I think they said on the postgame.

    *** Official IOWA STATE VS Kansas State Game(Day) Thread ***

    If Young plays close to as well as he played tonight it totally changes the dynamic of the team. We are wondering if Monte is a little sick tonight. Might explain his mortal game and extended bench time.

    Hahahahaha!!!!! We can - and I do on occasion - cherry pick my time frames. And the time I cherry picked was the midst of a 19 YEAR CONSECUTIVE NON-WINNING SEASON STREAK - still a D1 record by your beloved Iowa Hawkeyes. I guess I should have gone back and included the times that encompassed...

    Big 12: Best Conference in a Decade?

    Isn't the RPI (and other ratings for that matter) a measure of relative strength within a season. I see no basis for using it to proclaim something the best over any number of seasons based on that measure. I would contend that the level of college basketball overall is down this year...

    Iowa State at Kansas State predictions

    I knew before I opened the thread and saw who the OP was - what his prediction would be. That I can predict with almost 100% certainty. As for this team - it's almost impossible to predict. My gut says we'll play hard and very well, but it may not be enough. KSU is just as erratic as we are...

    History is history. My larger point, which either totally escapes you or scares the **** out of you - is that it doesn't have to impact the future. You can claim - for now - that nothing will change. And you very well could be right. But the FACT is you have less of a clue than any of us and...

    Ohhhhhh.... So now you ARE factoring in games not played. Because I'm pretty sure just a couple of posts ago you were accusing me of doing the same and deriding me for it.

    I have not been a prohm fan, but...

    This is my view too. I was shocked when that pass went in. It's a work in progress though. There were other times a pass wasn't made inside and it wasn't just Monte. If that can ben ramped up just a bit going forward it could make a real difference.

    *** Official Oklahoma VS IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    I'd be very curious to see Young's +/- tonight.

    I clearly alluded to how the historical series record is distorted by not playing in those years. And I'll make a further allusion - those years also coincided with the majority of the Majors/Bruce eras. But that wasn't my larger point. You have said repeatedly that historically ISU sucks -...

    Friday OT - Boycott!

    That was never my argument. I hope you've figured that out by now. A 30 day expiration policy - rules or not - is designed to screw the customers and improve the bottom line. Iam not willing to pay a premium to a company that employs that type of policy. And Hy Vee is VERY premium priced...

    Friday OT - Boycott!

    I really didn't mean to go on a diatribe against Hy Vee. Out of all the things I've posted in this thread, that was the only one that was about what I considered to be a shift in a business model and away from what I'm willing to pay for. Those on the right will consider my other positions...

    If you want to talk about history - I notice all you guys gloss over the fact that Iowa refused to play the game for years. Coincidently, those years encompassed the time frame when Iowa was setting the D1 record - I believe it still stands - for the most consecutive non-winning seasons. In...

    Friday OT - Boycott!

    Hy Vee uses that fuel saver card to guide people to first buy, and then buy the products they want us to buy - more profit. In many instances I made buying decisions based on fuel saver. Call me a dupe for that if you want, but if it really is the policy to take those away after 30 days...

    Friday OT - Boycott!

    Could be on the fuel saver side. If so. that just further makes my case that the doesn't value the customer in a way I'm willing to pay a premium for. I'm willing to pay for it if I'm treated in the manner I pay for. And also, I won't shop at Hobby Lobby or eat at Chick fil a. And damn their...

    Friday OT - Boycott!

    I like to think I'm a man of conviction and I have "voted" with my wallet my whole life. I had a boss once that asserted that if you alienate 10 customers, one will contact you and give you the chance to make it right, one will say nothing and take business elsewhere, and eight will not only...
