    Ctrl Alt Delete for Cyclone Football

    btw, the estimated cost of the south end zone expansion is only $30 million and it's part of a total $60 capital budget that includes updating several dorms. But, you are correct on the $20 million addition to the Bergstrom facility. Of course that really doesn't compare much to the $100...

    Ctrl Alt Delete for Cyclone Football

    You want to reboot the football program, just send money and lots of it. You can start today by sending in your $10 Million and get your buddies to do the same. Then after get about $100 million, then we might be able to start to compete.

    Cole Netten

    That would be Holden Kramer, the pouch punter. Left to right, Spencer Thornton (#49 Long Snapper), Cole Netten (#1 Kicker), Austin Fisher (#32 Holder), and Holden Kramer (#12 Punter).

    For thosewho watched the game...what happened on that last drive???!!!

    Timeout was clled before the snap was made. So Netten knew there was no pressure on hitting it or not. Netten just took it as a warm-up kick.

    Placing the blame on the defense

    Every QB dream is to have your number 1 reciever (Shipley) in man - man coverage against a lineback (Brackins). It's wasn't the player, it was the coverage!

    Bad Calls Compilation Video

    I agree on the catch/strip of Jarvis, but what about the K-State player maintaining possession. After all, the K-State player stripped it with his right hand, rolled on his back while transferring the ball from his right hand to his left hand behind his back. No way he could do that without...

    Bad Calls Compilation Video

    If what you said is true, then please tell me how the K-State player can take to ball out of Jarvis's hands with his right hand continue completely roll on to his back and sit up, at the same time pass the ball behind his back and hold it up after the catch with his left hand. Do all that...

    Record for past coaches

    I think Jukebox has an interesting idea and very similar to the movie Moneyball. I think there is a lot to be learned from providing a complete statistical analysis on every time and every play and use that to an advantage. I would keep the coach, but add this as a resource. There is a lot of...

    Record for past coaches

    I'm kind of disappointed in where this thread has gone. It appears to me that traditionally poor performing teams remain poor performing coach, after coach, after coach. So while I believe the coach has a lot to do with the win/loss it's not the only thing. Maybe Chiz had a point when he said...

    Record for past coaches

    I find it quite interesting everyone wanting PR's head lack of performance. Seems like everyone thinks McCarney walked on water, yet his overall record was only 56 W - 85 L and even worse in the Big 12. In fact the only coach to have a winning record at Iowa State since 1920 was Earle Bruce at...

    Actually, I believe the Big Ten is still looking for two more schools. Ideally they would like to have 16 teams total. Take Kansas and ISU to the big ten and it would add a lot of basketball power, and the rest matches well. I say, do it fast and do it now, have it ready for the 2015 football...

    Downing

    It's fun to watch Holden Kramer warming up, because when he does his pouch punts, the ball goes end over end, but it's spinning backwards.

    Downing

    One reason Downing's average remains higher than Kirby's is because Holden Kramer handles the pouch punts. Kirby was so good at dropping the ball inside the 20, that he had a lot of pouch punts. A few 30 - 35 yard punts really drops your average. Also, punting into a 30 MPH wind really cuts...

    Targeting Call waived off, not reviewed

    From the view they showed on the big screen it appeared that he latched himself (leaving his feet), lead with his shoulder, but still had his head down and there appeared to be significant helmet to helmet contact. My position is that since the call was made and the booth review can nullify...

    Pollard Calls Out Big 12 Officials

    Clark and others, remember the ruling on the field was "no touchdown" and the refs were standing directly on the goal line. First the cameras were not on the goal line so any evidence used to say he did or did not break the plane of the goal line is suspect. You can draw a line, but unless you...

    The onside kick

    What, OK so I just checked the 2013 - 2014 NCAA rule book and see no such rule. Touching and Recovery of a Free Kick ARTICLE 3. a. No Team A player may touch a free-kicked ball until after: 1. It touches a Team B player (Exception: Rules 6-1-4 and 6-5-1-b); 2. It breaks the plane of and...

    How do Baylor WRs get so wide open?

    I know there is a lot more history here with most of the poster than I, but as an ISU fan, I'm a bit embarrassed about how many are responding to "RebelT". So to add my part, I've read Art Briles book and he talked about recruiting. His philosophy was that Baylor could compete against the 4...

    Gannon is back. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

    Wow, maybe you should either go get check out yourself or you need to educate your self about anxiety disorders. It can be quite debilitating. If you think it's just getting a little nervous for a game or feel down because you are under a little pressure, you really don't understand. My...

    Jarvis West Fumble

    The entire rule as copied from the NCAA 2013/2014 rule book. At least the discussion has generally reverted back to the judgment call of did he have possession when he contacted the ground and not how many points of a persons body has to be on the ground before it's a completion. As stated, if...

    Jarvis West Fumble

    3truefans, you misunderstood most of what I just got done saying. The question isn't as much about the rule as it is about did he have control when his knee hit the ground. From your post you are saying you don't believe he did. Everything I've been posting about the rule really have to do...
