    Hoiberg to Transfer to Iowa State???

    My bad on Garrett, though his role/impact changed wildly his senior year. My memory of that season is 1) McDermott suspending Colvin, then un-suspending him early because they were running out of warm bodies, 2) feeling really bad for Brackins, who probably cost himself millions of dollars by...

    Hoiberg to Transfer to Iowa State???

    Top-heavy roster, injuries, dubious point-guard play, and LaRon Dendy all factored prominently.

    MSG Sphere Las Vegas

    $500 for U2 with a substitute drummer is a tough sell.

    Hoiberg to Transfer to Iowa State???

    That tournament game was a microcosm for the Prohm era: a more-talented (IMO) ISU team finding a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. I don’t have sources, but had heard rumblings that the shine had worn off for both parties, and Prohm was ready to pull a McDermott. Who knows. The...

    Hoiberg to Transfer to Iowa State???

    Lost in all of this: I don’t think 2-22 happens without the pandemic. Prohm either takes another job or Jamie cuts him loose after the Big 12 tournament in 2020, except for the whole global pandemic/sports cancelled/potentially no revenue thing. Everyone knew it was over and was ready to be done.

    KXNO Sports Fanatics

    With the play-in, a team could theoretically log another 30 games after the regular season ends. And the playoffs take long enough that it feels like another half-season, so you’re not that far off.

    Monte traded to the Pistons

    This. Pistons are super young, and wanted some veteran leadership. A second round pick isn’t much, and they’re only committed to Morris for a year.

    [The Athletic - Paywall] Why Iowa State is tweaking its identity this summer with more offensive options

    “Looks like he’s a 12” has to be on there, too. Inexplicably getting in the paint and finishing at the rim doesn’t hurt, either.

    [The Athletic - Paywall] Why Iowa State is tweaking its identity this summer with more offensive options

    Paveletzke has all of the ingredients to be one of the most hated guys in the Big 12. I love it.

    Gamblin…Smoke and Fire

    I’m starting to wonder if the bulk of the investigation isn’t now targeted at the controls, or lack thereof, of the sports books. Fingers crossed.

    Chicago Bears bought Arlington Heights track only to build next to Soldier Field?

    That Kevin Warren is one hell of a negotiator.

    Jeremiah Williams to the transfer portal.

    Not from Iowa originally, so I don’t have a horse in this race. I would have put Nevada in this same category up until a few years ago, but they seem to be having a nice resurgence in the downtown area. The new subdivision is nice, too. Hopefully Boone can catch some of that as Ames continues to...

    The great washing machine debate

    The top TEN washers in Consumer Reports are all LG. IMO Maytag is coasting on reputation at this point.

    ISU/Hoiberg kept Cornell Mann when he got an OWI the day after his hire was announced.

    Huggins might be in trouble, DUI is good, Bees are bad

    https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/18788673/west-virginia-coach-bob-huggins-change-like-not There are plenty of rumors, but also documentation that Huggins likes to drink. Is he an alcoholic? There’s evidence, but that’s not my place to say. The wildest thing about this, to...
