    Barry Lamar Bonds...

    Big Picture, I think Bonds will be irrelevent. A-Rod is at 478 and is 31. Pujols is at 256 at 26 years old. Figure 40 per year and ARod goes to 40 years old. A-Rod is at 838 give or take. Pujols same figure to 40 puts him at 816. Both of these guys could blow anything Bonds does...

    OT: Time for a new car

    My wife is a road warrior, 500-600 miles a week with her job. We drive the hell out of any car we have. I had a 96 accord with 275,000 on it and basically got rid of it out of boredom. I got a new Civic and it is about the same size as my old accord. Anyway, if you do a Honda it is...

    Meyer's Starting spot safe to me

    I agree CMoore, it is Myers' job to lose... I am happy that the backup is sound. When the chips are down it is the fundamentals that do not allow a QB to lose a game for you. If Brett would go get dinged, the next guy in will be sound. Brett is such a good athlete I am confident he will...

    Meyer's Starting spot safe to me

    They both have work to do. The new offense is 3 step no hitch, 5 step 1 hitch maybe 2 on a curl or something. Only 2 hitches on 7 step also. More than two hitches will not be allowed, you tuck it and get to the LOS or throw it to your Mom in the front row. If you watched Brett last year his...

    New Iowa Coach

    It is Lickliter, I bet he had to wait on Altman and went with his second choice. I don't think this is the splash they wanted. I am sure it will be spun hard. Link

    The ISU world if BVD were still in charge.

    I agree with you, when DMac first got to Ames he had to sell his program hard and I understand that. Eight years later he was still selling. Although I respect the heck out of Coach McCarney, I like the quiet confidence of Coach Chizik.

    The ISU world if BVD were still in charge.

    OK Bobber, the clinic as you requested. I was completely impressed with Chizik. He is not a rah rah salesman but has a professional business approach when speaking. His coordinators are both charachters, funny as heck, and know what they are doing. Chizik introduced his staff along with...

    The ISU world if BVD were still in charge.

    Great Post!!! I think Pollard is one of the most exciting young AD's in the nation. His major coaches are rock solid. He has done this while starting major capital campaigns etc.... He is the guy we have to hold on to for a while!!!!! Going to the ISU football clinic this weekend, been...

    Will Iowa talk to Pollard?

    I think Iowa is looking BIG NAME. Pressure from the Tubby hire at Minnesota. No more mid major hires!!!!! Let's face it, MCD is still a mid major name. I would look for a hard run Gillespie (sp) , I would also look for Crean (sp) but I think if Kentucky doesn't snatch Donovan it will...

    Iowa Coaching List

    :laugh8kb:This post is due to the arrogance of Iowa fans........ Apparently next to coaching in Maui with playboy bunnies as assistants, Iowa is the nirvana of BB coaching jobs. I have started a littlle list to work from for the next vacancy. 1. James Naismith -- Dig his *** up, why...

Kudos to Mr. Pollard. Some folk have a feeling or judgement of character and...

    Finally some love...

    I think the biggest knock on Kelly was his reputation for recruiting trash. Lots of discipline/law troubles etc.... Cincy must have decided they survived Huggy Bear they will survive with him. I really think we got the right guy and the Gophers got our second best choice in Brewster.. Kelly...

    Conference Championship Games

    I have a nominee for the 12th team in the Big 12, ISU, we could join the Big 10 and let Colorado St. or Boise St. take our spot in the Big 12. It would help us in all sports. I would love to have that west Football Schedule, Iowa, Minnesota, Northwestern, llinois, and Wisconsin. East would...

    Jim Walden is crazy...

    Nice article about it off the front page of espn.com. (Not linking, trying to follow the rules :) ) Only guy to vote them #1 in the Harris pole. Personally I think Walden could have had success at ISU if he would have had the same support his successor got financially. I mean everyone...
