    Way too many JUCO transfers for McDermott

    McDermott is a good coach, but being a good coach does not make someone successful in the big 12 - much more is needed. McDermott has been forced to sign Jucos because of the transfers. Since Iowa State will never be able to sign a class filled with blue chip recuits it must use JUCO players...

    ISU@Nebraska Gameday Thread

    Maybe this just means that they will turn the ball over to us in better position......

    Mangino vs. Ferentz?

    But I would also like to add that I would pick Paul Rhoads over both.

    Mangino vs. Ferentz?

    As someone who does not hate the Hawks....... I would pick Mangino. I am really impressed with what he has done at KU.

    Cyclone/Hawk gameday discussion thread

    Really, despite struggling in the second half, ISU outplayed Iowa today. Look at the numbers, there is no doubt that ISU was better today. That is what feels good.

    Shaggy just got rid of that monkey on his back.

    ISU vs UNI Game Thread

    Was gamecenter correct in saying that Arnaud made the tackle on the kickoff? I hope he is not on the kickoff coverage team, but I guess if he is that proves he is athletic.

    Sam Keller throws for 258 yards.

    Keller looked terrible other than the 2 minute drive to end the first half. He looks very uncomfortable in the system. This seems to be proving that everytime the Huskers get a new QB, it is going to take a while for him to learn how to fun the system well. If Wake has its starting QB I think...

    My Thoughts from being at Jack Trice tonight

    I was as dissapointed as anyone on Thursday, but I have come to a new opinion. We were not going to win every game this year. Period. We did not hire Chizik to win all of the non conference games and then struggle during conference. It looks like he used that game as a preseason game. Yes...

    Larry Johnson 'prepared' for long holdout

    I am a Chiefs fan and I say let him sit. The team may not be great without him, but it seems like he gains all of his yards when games are already out of hand. Plus he can not block at all. He puts up numbers but does not make the team that much better in my opinion.

    Corey Mac will be our starting PG next year

    The thing I am most happy about is that we are having this discussion. A few weeks ago most people thought Corey probably wouldnt even see minutes next year. Who really knows what next year will bring, but it is exciting to have talent coming in to the program and some guys here who can play a...

    Dunk Contest

    I know he didnt really dunk too much in games, but anybody who came to games early enough got to see Blalock put on a show. I have never seen anyone who can dunk like he can, and he is only 6' tall.

    Next year in basketball=More disappointment

    Bad teams beat good teams all the time. I wouldn't take evidence of one bad game into account to how well someone can coach. If the only reason a team can lose to a team with inferior talent, then what does that say about Rick Barnes and Texas, no one has more talent than him. McDermott can...

    Marsden - What's it going to take?

    Marsden just needs to play like he is pissed off. He has the physical tools.

    Tampa 2 Defense

    Maybe I am wrong, but I believe that there are major differences between what is described as the Tampa 2 and the cover 2 a lot of teams run (and ISU tended to play a deep cover 2, or a cover 3 even I think). One of the biggest is that most teams trying to use Tampa's blue print are...

    Mitch Mustain

    Mitch Mustain, freshman QB from Arkansas just was released from his scholarship. I know it is unlikely, but what are the chances of landing him? He can really play.

    Defense

    The thing I am most happy to see so far this year is improvments and adjustments. Everyone seemed to be getting a little down on the team's fundamentals early, but really, the true gauge of a coach is how he takes what happens in games and works with them. How much better has this team gotten...

    Turnover King... Mike Taylor

    As much as everyone is all against Taylor, imagine the guards we have without him. We would have to use walk-ons a lot, and the guards would be poor ball handlers (especially after the starting 2) who cant create shots or draw defenders. Give Taylor some time, he is playing because of what he...

    Sugar coat it all you want....

    Something else nobody is really considering, McDermott probably hasnt been able to bring his entire playbook out yet. When he has to start from scratch to the whole team his offense, he has to be very limited. It is a whole lot easier to teach an offense when returning players can help teach...

    Rahshon Clark Interview

    I think that the dribbling ability will come for Rahshon. Remember, he was a post player in high school, so he hasn't had much time learning how to handle the ball on the wing. With good coaching he can get there.
