    Man! Do they teach reading anymore? Find in my post(s) anywhere I say I have more rights to gripe, am a better fan or any such thing. I am stating MY dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs with ISU Football, not ISU Academics (though I am getting close with the lack of critical...

    Yep through thick and thin. I am going to guess that I have been through a heck of a lot more thin than most around this board. I am finally at a point where thin is not in. I have seen ISU come close to moving forward only to stick with a coach a year, then two, then three to long and all the...

    Yep saw the name - cyclone fanatic comes up on my screen does Cyclonefootballkoolaiddrinkingfanactic come up on yours? Blindly following something is not neccessarily the same as being a fan.

    Wow guys are we having some fun. Fickleone - no argument from me that there has been improvement in depth and other areas. Can we also agree that if things don't turn around we have reached a plateau with McCarney. Monkeybrow - I assume you are joking. I am from a very blue collar background...

    No I am not saying we should be deep at every position. Deep at every position would be getting upset because after an injury or two (something you can’t PLAN for) we get weak at a position. Having the ability to see that in the next year or two we are graduating players at certain positions...

    Take a deep breath, relax.

    I really like what you pulled together, excellent things to keep in mind. The part about being mad at a 7-5 season really made me think.

    Find anywhere in my post where I said I could not afford the season tickets and I will buy yor season tickets for you - I did not say I could not afford them, I said I chose not to. Apparently you are not in something that requires careful reading as well as not being a businessman. As a matter...

    No I don't think we are supposed to be deep at every position every year, I think our caoches should be able to PLAN FOR GRADUATION AND ATTRITION to some point. It is not like it should be a darn shock when a player uses his 5 to play 4 he leaves. Being the "dean" of conference coaches you think...

    No Matt Once I was young also and did not look at things the same as I do now and just having fun tailgating etc was enough. Enjoy your time I don't think I said it shouldn't be enough for you, I said it is not enough for ME and my money.

    It's The Money Stupid

    Loney is the guy I would love to see replace Mac. He is a Cyclone, not a hawk. He has experience in the League (big recruiting positive). He is a tactition on the line which is a desperate need. He is creative in play calling and I woud think in play book design. He is NOT McCarney - which is...

    Actually I admit the winning out comment is a little over the top - just a sign of my disgust. I would take a B12 and BCS Championship in a heart beat, but I would not sell out the program for it. Bryce as far as Bandwagon fan goes, call it what you will if a real "fan" is someone who just...

    1 - I am glad I opted to NOT buy season tickets this year. I bought into the hype in years past and decided to take a wait and see approach this year. Now I do not feel compelled to go to any of these horrible games. Call me a bandwagon fan but when these guys show the improvement or we change...
