    Surprising (to me) takeaways on D after rewatching Baylor

    Because I had little to do today, and I invest way too much emotion into ISU basketball, I rewatched every possession that Baylor scored. I made specific notes for each possession but also broader themes. I know we've gone through this and some may not want to dwell on this game, but I thought...

    What style of offense are we looking at?

    I've heard Toledo's offense described as power running, but the Toledo poster said the OC was also too quick to ditch the run. Does the QB play under center? I formation? Fullbacks? I guess I don't remember what Toledo ran against us this season.

    These Are Our School Colors

    1. Cardinal and gold as seen in these jerseys are our school colors. We should be using the same cardinal and gold that are still used for letterman's jackets. 2. How are we on our third season in a row with the same jerseys?

    Possible midseason transfer

    I would expect quite a few to be popping up. This guy is worth a look. David Collette from Utah State. 6'10 235 with three year left. Averaged 12 and 5 in the Mountain West. http://www.utahstateaggies.com/sports/m-baskbl/mtt/david_collette_761659.html

    Burton expectations

    This has been discussed before, but I'm tired of football discussion. I really have no clue what to expect from Burton. Highly regarded, decent numbers for a freshman in the Big East, obviously has a unique skill set. Are we looking at a guy that can go for double digits on any given night? Or...

    Iowa deep threat?

    Probably a little late in the day to get some discussion, but does Beathard have a guy that can burn the D deep? I know last season Powell was their burner. Smith is a really good receiver but more of a crossing route guy that can run after the catch. We've heard Beathard will take chances...

    Beathard vs. Richardson

    Seeing some chatter on Hawkeye Lounge and I thought this would be a good discussion from both sides. Who would you rather have: Beathard or Richardson? Iowa fans are super confident in Beathard despite him throwing more than 10 passes in a game three times. 17/37 245 1 TD 1 INT @ Purdue W...

    Iowa's perimeter D

    Last season, Minnesota, Maryland, Iowa State (Richardson to an extent) and Tennessee exposed Iowa's lack of speed on the outside. Minnesota especially killed them with jet sweeps and pitches. Is Iowa State equipped to do that this season? We haven't seen many jet sweeps out of Mangino, and...

    Updated Rotation Discussion

    This team has more clearly defined roles than they did last season at this time. Hoiberg seems pretty confident in his first 7 (soon 8). For now: Kane Thomas Long Hogue Niang Morris Edozie Percy SDW When Ejim returns: Kane Thomas Long Ejim Niang Hogue Morris Edozie Kane can play anywhere...

    Media Day

    Media day is tomorrow. I see on cyclones.tv that they are having a special at 3:45. Does anyone know what time the actual event starts? I searched but couldn't find anything.

    Jok recruitment

    Jok has really made me a believer. He put up 41 last night. He is going to be a solid player for Iowa unfortunately. I know we had interest before he had knee issues. Why didn't we offer? I'm not saying it was a huge mistake, but it seems like he may have been worth the risk. Hindsight is...

    A couple random questions/thoughts

    Why does the fireplace reading room in the library always smell like poop? It's really, really bad. How do people continue to study there? Who is the white trash ****** in Maple that has the confederate flag in the window? I hate driving/walking by there and seeing that displayed so...

    Trying to listen to Walters on my phone

    I'll be working during the game, but I would like to listen to the radio broadcast. I have iheartradio but it will have music on all the stations with the game. Any way to get Walters and Heft through my phone?

    Big XII Tournament Questions

    I'll be heading down to KC with a group of 3 on Friday if we win the Thursday game. Should we buy tickets online or count on scalping? Win or lose, we will be there for the weekend. Are their hotels within walking distance of the venue that aren't already packed? I'm just looking for any...

    Moving forward

    I haven't read a lot of the threads because I can't handle the emotional drivel, so excuse me if I repeat what has been discussed. I thought I would break it down individually as I tend to ramble. Christopherson- Not much to be said here. I thought he played okay last night and made some big...

    Apartment fire?

    A friend just posted a picture on Facebook of a pretty intense fire at an apartment building behind Hyland. Anyone hear anything? I haven't found anything online.

    Next four games

    TTU OU @CU KSU How many do we get? I'm hoping for three so I'm guessing two. Winning three would set us up for a shot at the postseason.

    Norm Chant

    I'm sure you've all heard about this, but for those who haven't the Kinnick crowd is suppossed to chant 'Norm' during either Wisconsin third downs or first downs (there seems to be some confusion) in honor of their defensive coordinator who has been unable to be on the sidelines for medical...
