    Eli King enters the Portal

    I don't know about this...there is quite a bit of room in the middle of these extremes. Niang and Monte both played quite a bit as freshman, so it made sense for them to stay, but they weren't clear first-round draft picks in the NBA, so it also made sense for them not to declare early. Now...

    *** Official #11 IOWA STATE vs West Virginia Game(Day) Thread ***

    I actually think we got a very friendly whistle at home against KU. Seemed like a large number of 50-50 block/charge calls went our way. KU is actually one of the least physical teams in the conference this year, it seems...quite a change from the years where they had bigs like Embid...

    *** Official #11 IOWA STATE vs West Virginia Game(Day) Thread ***

    As I'm slowly cooling off tonight, I am cognizant that we are tied for 2nd in the Big 12 with Kansas (and KSU), would have taken that if offered it at the beginning of the season for sure. This team plays hard and is in every game (at least since New Years). Am I not entertained? Yes, I am...

    *** Official #11 IOWA STATE vs West Virginia Game(Day) Thread ***

    I do think the coaches will be trying to figure out how to adjust to guard teams that drive the ball hard (often teams that don't have a lot of great shooters) without fouling. The zone in the last 10 minutes tonight was decent at that, but I think we have to be able to do it in man-to-man, too.

    *** Official #11 IOWA STATE vs West Virginia Game(Day) Thread ***

    And to me, it's not just that too many fouls were called - in the first 10 minutes or so of the game, West Virginia was being VERY physical on defense away from the ball, grabbing cutters, bumping screeners, boxing out very hard. In that time, they were called for only about 3 total fouls (none...

    Well, don't you have to count winning at TCU and Oklahoma to make it 2 for 6, at least?

    Matt Campbell postgame quote

    I have to say, an Iowa State football program that "stalls" at having a winning season with a bowl appearance 80% of the time, has a winning conference record over half of the time, and that has a legitimate chance to compete for a conference title 30-40% of the time, is in a pretty good place...

    The “We Will” Collective

    Whatever happens, as things are structured at the moment, college sports as an industry is getting an influx of many million dollars per university (times maybe a hundred schools in football, maybe two hundred or more in mens basketball), all in what amounts to donations, that was not being...

    The “We Will” Collective

    One thing I have not seen in the discussion and analysis of this new NIL regime is the change in total dollars spent and made in the industry. Here's what I mean: - Universities - will still sell tickets and jerseys, will still provide scholarship funds, and will still be required to build...

    B12 Teams' Record in Close Games

    Well, so as to keep some perspective (I know, not a popular thing to do), we should have fewer "close game" wins by finishing out games with big leads without letting the opponent close to within one score at the end (e.g., at OSU, at K-State...). ;)

    *** Official West Virginia vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    I caught some of Huggins' web conference postgame comments where we was even more direct in his criticism of his players...didn't call out any players by name, but very clearly got the point across that McNeil was getting picked on because other teams watch film and know (like WVU does) that he...

    Twister Sister Summary - Whining doesn't cut it...but defense does

    I actually thought the most impressive part of the game was the way Donarski refused to be screened while guarding Clark...she fought her way through every screen all night long, and I don't think I can even remember a time where we switched the screen and got stuck in a mismatch, or even where...

    BLUM: Deonte Burton, The Enigma

    As the year has gone on, I've enjoyed watching Deonte more and more. I can see his effort on the floor. And he seems to be trying to improve in areas of weakness -- he has passed the ball out to open shooters on drives more often lately, and he's been driving to his right once in a while to...

    Greetings from a Sooner coming to Ames

    The pizza place I liked best in the early 90s just off Welch was DaVinci's -- the pizza was excellent and the cheesesteak hoagies were a treat! Couldn't afford to eat there often (pizza was over $10 if I recall, even in 90s dollars)...ah, memories of being destitute.
