    Chris Allen from MSU on campus?

    Lafester was a functional illiterate...as was discussed in an article that appeared in Time or Newsweek after he left ISU. I always wondered how he was able to stay eligible all that time at ISU. I also wonder periodically where he is now. On another note about Lafester, I still remember...

    Chris Allen from MSU on campus?

    That's because every player I mentioned played 10 plus years ago. Back in the 80s almost all guys hung around 3-5 years. In the 90s that started to move to 2-3 years. Today it is 1-2 years. You are a fool to try to recruit and assume things are like they were in the 80s and 90s...

    Chris Allen from MSU on campus?

    Man, you (and a number of others on this site as well) just do not get it at all...do you?! We play in a DI power conference and it is 2010...we don't play in a mid major or lower conference and it is not the 1990s or before when guys usually stayed around for 3-5 years. Frankly, the only...

    Brian Kelly Gets It.

    First of all...Kelly had a much more favorable environment at Cinci that was conducive to winning quickly than Chizik had at ISU...if you recall, Kelly took over a rising program from a guy that had just taken a step-up job at Michigan State (Dantonio) in the weakest BCS conference by far...

    Brian Kelly Gets It.

    I could not agree more with the last statement in your post.

    Tebow's New Look...

    That "do" is absolutely hilarious on so many levels...genius decision by the Bronco veterans. By the way, Dez "prima donna" Bryant is going to be a colossal flop in the NFL...mark my words.

    Brian Kelly Gets It.

    I freely admit that I preferred Chizik over Kelly and still believe Chizik was better hire at the time...by the way, AU might end up having a great season with seven defensive starters returning and a prototype QB coming in for the Malzahn offense...but I digress. At any rate, Kelly was on...

    The Other Guys!

    Interesting...in Schmucks I felt a lot of compassion for the guy and thought he played kind of a lovable character...much different than what you see on The Office.

    The Other Guys!

    You have got to be kidding! He has had a few decent movies but many of his flicks have been absolutely horrid and, frankly, it seems they are increasingly on the horrid side as his career progresses...some not even worth renting.

    Dinner With Schmucks

    I disagree with the highlighted portion on two accounts... ...there were more than "some" funny parts and ...I thought there was a decent amount of depth (far more than I suspected when I sat down in the theater) to the movie that made you feel some compassion for the "weirdos" at the dinner

    Dinner With Schmucks

    I don't remember a single F-bomb in this movie...I might be wrong but it is not just a swear-a-thon.

    Is this the old ISU fan in me?

    I can't believe I am actually responding to such a foolish set of posts but you are so off base it is nearly unfathomable... + Iowa is neither a trendy or popular team...they have some popularity in Iowa but get outside of the state once in a while and you will discover they are a non-entity...

    Schmucks #2 at the box office.

    ISU Releases MBB Schedule

    I am continually amazed at the number of you that are OK with a very weak non-conference schedule. Some of you just flat out want cupcakes to feast on so we have a sterling record heading into conference no matter what. Some of you couch this in the excuse blankets of new coach, young team...

    ISU Releases MBB Schedule

    I hope we can get back to the point where we are scheduling a more rigorous non-conference schedule that includes some of the big season kick-off tournaments.

    1987 ISU vs. Iowa Basketball game

    The long slow ride down began with Lute leaving...most Iowa fans thought "Lute will never leave the Hawks"....HA HA!! Raveling came in after and could really recruit (but was a little weak on the bench), then Davis came in and could really coach (but was a little weak in recruiting). The best...

    Dinner With Schmucks

    Interesting. I don't care what any on you say...I enjoyed it and thought it was a pretty entertaining movie...much deeper than I anticipated...if you are looking. At any rate, no one has answered my question...who are the schmucks at dinner? Please no answers from those that have only seen the...

    MLB: Cubs and Dodgers Discussing Lilly Trade

    Wow...such hate for Theriot from some of you. I am biased towards the guy because I know him and his family a little. He and his family are great people. Sure, he doesn't hit for much power but that wasn't that big of a deal for a middle infielder until the advent of steroids and...

    1987 ISU vs. Iowa Basketball game

    I will be ordering this...the old VHS I had runs but not too good. Is Lafester interviewed on that DVD? Whatever happened to Lafester?

    1987 ISU vs. Iowa Basketball game

    Best game I ever saw in Hilton...it was so loud prior to the introductions that the players could not hear the PA announcer call their names initially. It got louder and better from there.
