    Marty and Miller

    It's just entertainment with a sports angle. I really enjoy these guys. Marty is like a volcano--you can just sit back and wait for the eruption. You know it'll happen, but when? I find his meltdowns to be classics.

    What was Lickliter thinking?

    *********** Well, in all due respect, I think Lickliter focuses more on the team than the individual. I don't know the Butler teams of past well enough, but I do know that over the last 5 or so years, he's taken two teams to the Sweet 16; I doubt--again, I honestly don't know all their past...

    This is a very important game this weekend

    I'm confident in a win. Not by 20 points, but I think we'll squeak it out. Home court advantage will be big for us. Irregardless of the weather, I suspect a nice crowd. I foresee Brackins having a nice game, and I think Haluska has found his touch and confidence. I've seen Drake play in...

    Rushing after K-State, Seriously????

    I agree cycloneryan. Seems like a lot of people made fun of Iowa rushing the field last week after a double OT victory and coming back from like 17 points down. I wonder if those same posters are okay with us doing it yesterday?

    Do not support Jon Miller's advertisers

    So what'd he do? He what? He talked smack about the Clones? He hyped his Hawks? That's it...his advertisers are dead to me. He hurts my feelings.

    Iowa recruit released

    Actually I think there were concerns that the kid wasn't even going to qualify academically; he probably would have been one of many that Alford "brought in" that never made it there. And Alford had been recruiting the PG that's down to them and StL and Princeton. He might be a hidden gem and...

    Pearl has no interest in Iowa+ I love the last line

    Well, before we start yukking it up that they'll have to settle for a lower tier coach like Altman or Lowery, remember where GMac came from. And before anyone runs out the excuse that it's just funny because EIU fans are delusional, stop for a second...if we're so confident that we can win with...

    What KXNO slot does a better job when discussing ISU athletics?

    It's always seemed like the "cool thing" to do on message boards is to bash the DSM radio sports station. People on here now pine for Deace, when just eight months ago the same types were saying he's a phoney and will never be a true Cyclone fan--just shilling to make the money (as if that's so...

    Season Ticket sales "brisk"

    Curious how many season tickets were sold at this time last year, for comparison's sake. Anyone have any figures?

    Cyclone Recruiting on KXNO today

    Every time Jon comes on here letting us know he's doing a Cyclone piece, a few village idiots go off and prove every fanbase has its share. Thanks for the heads up Jon. Keep it up.

    Haluska's socks

    Dude's ripped the nets for almost 70 points in two games. He can wear Pipi Longstocking's socks if he wants.

    Tate on Iowa: “There’s nothing really going on there".

    Comment was taken out of context. Listen to the whole interview on WHO's website. Frankly, the fact that this is getting so much play is making his point for him. We are boring. Really, is that such a bad thing? Sorry, to interrupt the Tate bashing. As you were....

    Marty/Miller=Idiots

    I actually like Marty--I just take his comments as entertainment, not as fact (or even intelligent opinions). He does double speak though. Perfect example: He said Iowa would go "0 for Iowa" and they were terrible. After we lost to them, he said it made no difference bacause ISU is terrible...

    This DM REG. HEADLINE IS A JOKE...

    When you lose a game, expect a crummy headline or bad photo (good for the winner, though). Before ripping on the DMR for being Iowa lovers, I cast my mind back to Wednesday morning. The nearly half page photo was of Haluska looking as if he just watched his dog run into the path of a truck...

    Be Prepared: Iowa will play their best game tonight

    I don't think Gorney will do anything of note. He took lots of shots against UNI and most were not smart ones. He'll be reigned in tighter, I'd bet. If any "unknown" player has a good night, I'd say it'll be either Justin Johnson or Freeman, if you can consider him in that category. I...

    Iowa vs UNI

    Gameplan for Friday: Get down by 12-15. Play crappy. Get serious with about 6 minutes to play. Let the Hawks wet themselves. Win by 3.

    WILL IOWA STATE BE "TEXAS-NORTH?"

    This may be a bit off topic, but it's related to Chizik's Texas connections. I've been wondering how much a two-year assistant coach's connections to a state like Texas really matters. I mean, most of my concern revloves around him getting into the high schools and talking to coaches. Even if...

    Iowa vs UNI

    If it's close, I think the edge goes to UNI. I say this due to experience on the UNI team. I've seen two and a half Iowa games this year and they've gotten frazzled in both and let the other team go on 10-15 point runs. Personally, I think they'll choke again tonight. Also, Haluska has been...

    Have we ever lost to all 3 In-State Schools?

    Ha..something tells me Friday will be the battle for third place. I watched a small bit of Iowa-Coppin State and they didn't look too good. Defense at times was good, but many many lapses. Offense had no flow to it. I don't think we'll go 0-3. Well...I'm hoping at least!
