    "801 Day" explainer from a recent former student

    In my time, 2005-2009, 801 day was more referenced to the day after Greek Week ended (Greek Week was dry in the houses, could still go to bars) and an "unofficial" Greek Holiday that Monday at 8:01am with parties all day long. I remember the Friday of the week before school started was the...

    Thoughts/opinions on Gene Smith?

    When I did my Masters at tOSU in 2011, I took a “Business of College Athletics” course that he taught. Any time he mentioned something that happened during his time at ISU, he would look at me and wink, knowing I was the only person in the room who likely cared about that story. Also gave me...

    Do you think non profitable college athletic programs should give out scholarships?

    The main expense for those sports is far from scholarships. Operating expenses, travel, equipment, facilities, and everything else that goes into holding a competitive team far outweighs the small drop in the bucket of scholarship money going to those athletes. Stop.

    Do you think non profitable college athletic programs should give out scholarships?

    I was a MBB manager during my time at ISU, then coached at a JUCO for 2 years. I then went back to school for my Masters at Ohio State, GA in rec sports (what up non athletics full ride). Once I was there, I missed basketball, so I tried out for Womens scout team, but since I was 6 years removed...

    Do you think non profitable college athletic programs should give out scholarships?

    Did you know we already have opportunities for students to participate on a non scholarship level in nearly every DI sport we have, and then some? You are just advocating that all sports should be Club Sports if they don’t bring in money

    Do you think non profitable college athletic programs should give out scholarships?

    Thank you, this was my intended point, that things don’t necessarily bring the $ directly, but are vital to the overall perception. To compare to the OP, the relation I guess would be that these departments or in OP, sports should exist but, the people in them just be on volunteer or walk-in...

    Do you think non profitable college athletic programs should give out scholarships?

    I mean why do large corporations have philanthropic departments? Those are not revenue generating, get rid of them. Only focus on sales, that is where the money is! :jimlad:

    Gamblin…Smoke and Fire

    No, you tagged the site publisher to chime in on your asinine, unfounded troll job. I truly question the level of insecurity it takes to create an account on a rival's site and post nonstop.

    Dedric Willoughby Passes Away at 49

    Was my favorite player as a kid. One time my birthday I got to to take some friends to a game and we printed signs that said “Hit the 3 Willoighby” thinking the players would be able to see them in the balcony (we were young haha). After the game we hung around the concourse by the exit from the...

    ? - JLH Love Fest NSFW

    Mentioning this, and expecting it to happen, without posting a JLH gif, wouldn't actually be speaking it into existence now would it? Do your part!

    15 years at Cyclone Fanatic

    I think your username is a very good clue to the general era of when you would have joined. I remember Facebook groups that had the same name/concept, we all just wanted the ball to go his way because it's all we had

    15 years at Cyclone Fanatic

    March 29, 2006 for me. Seem to be part of the new member wave around the MBB coaching search for the Wayne Morgan replacement.

    Property Access for Tree Removal

    On a related question, and I'm sure this is probably very individualized to each community, but when does a homeowner have a responsibility to trim/clear branches and such that are overwhelming public property, like a sidewalk? A homeowner is responsible for clearing their sidewalk of snow/ice...

    Pride Month DYK

    You mean the movement to build awareness, acceptance, love, and openness towards a group have been marginalized, harassed, belittled, and disowned because of who they are? Sounds like quite the cult to me...

    Under the radar connections to Iowa

    AJ's dad was my eye dr growing up in CR, and can confirm was super nice. Considering AJ would have been 10 when I left to go to ISU, I never met him so no comments on him.

    Electric Lawnmowers - Pros and Cons

    I got this one for $799 last December from Home Depot. Came with 2 7.5 amh 40 volts and another charger. Makes a nice set having the lawn mower and snow blower since you (shouldn’t) have to use both in the same day...
