    Official Post-Game Thread ISU/NDSU

    Go watch a practice then. I've seen it in person. What do you think is done in practice? At the end of the day like I've said before the players have to step up and do the work and get the job done. These basic fundamentals have been taught from junior high to these guys, it's nothing new...

    Official Post-Game Thread ISU/NDSU

    I disagree. Rebounding is one example that we've been struggling with. I've seen the staff work with these guys. I've seen them teach boxing out. But at the end of the day McD and his staff can't go out there and actually grab the rebound. The players need to step up and play.

    Official Post-Game Thread ISU/NDSU

    So I guess the improvement in Hubalek and what he did for Clark was nothing? McD and his staff can coach. They can't be on the floor to do it themselves. At some point the players need to man up and play! I get so tired of throwing all the blame on the staff. It's the players that are on...

    Official Post-Game Thread ISU/NDSU

    So apparently Cornell has as much talent as Kansas then? These teams always come in trying to prove themselves and play extra hard to try to pull off these upsets.

    Dendy

    Another person that I haven't seen anyone talk about that I felt played a heck of a game last night and would like to see get more minutes is Boozer. He also brings a ton of emotion to the game and a much more athletic 2. I would like to see DB, Booz, Gilstrap, Brackins, and Dendy as a lineup...

    ISU vs IOWA Official Game Thread

    Confidence breeds success. A lot of people on this board really thought we'd struggle with this "crappy" iowa team tonight after the past week. The guys are playing well. Let's enjoy this and hope it continues. I for one am glad the way the guys came out tonight. Appears they've put the...

    ISU vs IOWA Official Game Thread

    You don't ever want a shooter to see the ball go in. Once that starts happening confidence rises and it could be too late to go back to man to man. Iowa is a 3 point shooting team. We're doing a good job forcing them out of what they do best. I'll give up a few easy two's compared to a few...

    Red Light/Speeding Camera's coming to Cedar Rapids

    Yeah, I'd be curious as to what the speeding cameras take photos for, 5 over, 10 over, 1 over? Also if they're approved in Des Moines, when are they looking at adding them?

    NW loss presser thoughts

    Let it go. It was a loss not the end of the world. A lot of great teams lose games. You can't honestly believe they don't care whether they win or not? That rediculous, of course they do. We all want to win. They had an off night. Do I think they are a better team than NW? Yeah, but they...

    Gameday Today

    Yeah how dare they talk about an great football player and an even better human being. He's an amazing kid that stands for what is right in today's world. To me that's a breath of fresh air when we're usually hearing about all the bad press that's going on.

    Come on offense, I've been very critical of you, please shut me up;)

    Official: Iowa State @ Missouri gameday thread

    Considering that our O can't get a first down, i would say our defense is helping keep us in the game.

    Official: Iowa State @ Missouri gameday thread

    I know I get sick and tired of everyone saying that our defense is terrible or makes them feel nervous or needs to step up. Forget that, if our offense is the achilles heal of this team and needs to pull their heads out of their hind ends and hold up their end of the bargain.

    ISU vs Drake Game Thread

    Thanks Jon for the kind words! I agree I think that this is one of the deepest teams I've watched at ISU in a long time. Seems like every game it's someone new stepping up. This game Christopherson and Lucca had huge games to go with Brackins 20. Gilstrap stuggled and we still looked very...

    Phillips to Ink with Iowa State Today at 11 a.m.

    so if we lose Brackins or Gilstrap next year are we going to try to bring in this kid? What are our chances of landing him if that's the case?
