    Williams and Woody. Pathetic

    I will add my name to the list of those who were shocked that the teams of the 70's were given no due. In fact, when Woody made that statement that nothing of substance occurred between the Dirty Thirty and the McCarney yrs, I rolled my eyes and turned off the podcast. If you are going to make a...

    Too Quiet ?

    I am aware of Kristen Scott from MN. Who is the other 2017 recruit?

    Official Post-Game Meltdown - You Post Here

    I could see this coming from a mile away---so much favorable ISU press nationally. We were the "golden" boys with a golden coach. Also, I read way too many posts on CF about who we would play in the 2nd and even 3rd rounds and how we could beat Duke. Well, we got knocked down from our perch...

    Some Jon Rothstein tweets from ISU practice

    Someone send these comments to Diallo with the one about a Hoiberg-coached practice like a NBA training camp circled. I would do it but I am an old guy and this is beyond my skill set.

    Friday OT - Why are you a pain to be married to/live with/date?

    You people are pathetic. I should have been a marriage counselor. I could have retired rich yrs ago! My counsel--Take 2 aspirin, hug, and call me in the mornin'. That'll be $100.

    Zebra Conspiracy

    I have been watching ISU sports for nearly 60 years. Sure I am biased, like every good fan is. But I have friends who are Missouri, Kansas, and KSU fans and they all readily admit that they know of no other team who gets as many bad calls as ISU. Also, I am a former high school football ref and...

    Williams/Blum Podcast: D'Vario Montgomery, fall camp tidbits, more

    Best podcast ever! Blum's story about being traumatized by a crackhead lady from SW IA was priceless.

    Start of the season MAILBAG: POST QUESTIONS HERE

    Which Big 12 team, other than the Cyclones of course, will have the best-looking cheerleaders this season? And don't tell me you don't check them out.

    Feedback: Let's chat about your preferences for site content

    Like the webcasts and written content (the more in-depth articles are preferred). Also, I enjoy when you provide links to other Big 12 writers. If you were to expand, as in hiring more staff, I would enjoy more coverage of women's basketball and volleyball.

    If Big 12 expands to 12, who do you pick if ACC is off the table?

    Rutgers and Louisville. Go back to 6-team divisions (ISU, KSU, KU, RU, LV, WVU in north) and 8-team conf. schedule with play-off. For non-conf. schedule, continue series with IA, add a SEC opponent (MSU, VU, or KY; home-on-home series) and then 2 gimme's (such as WIU; end series with N. IA...

    Where is our recruiting focus, geographically?

    Nice article in the Ames Trib recently about the geographic focus in Cyclones men's bb recruiting. Hoiberg has accomplished this in 3 years. Not sure I know the comparable focus in the women's program. Clearly we recruit the state of Iowa, but where do we consistently recruit after that. Where...

    Expanding back to 12 teams

    I agree with much that has already been said on this topic -- eventually the conference needs to do this and also it needs to be done with diluting TV revenue. What's the biggest Midwestern market the Big 12 is missing -- Chicago. I say the conference pulls out all the stops to bring in Norte...

    Oklahoma Text Msg...to SEC West...

    Ain't it fun guessing! What makes the most sense to me is OU and TAM to the SEC and Texas joins CU in the PAC 10. Then a new Big 12 Conf emerges our of the following teams: ISU MU KSU KU OSU TT Baylor TCU Houston Utah Memphis Louisville Air Force New Mexico SMU Cincy Brigham Young The...

    Got this from the KU board and supposedly they got it from Chip

    If the Big 12 is going to survive as a conference, then with the existence of several mega-conferences I think at a minimum it will need 12 teams. Missouri will have a cardiac if they add more Texas teams. I think the Big 12 needs to stay aggressive and invite Utah and Brigham Young as soon as...

    Ames Tribune: Thompson has fielded 15 calls from coaches

    Selecting a coach If it is true that we will have a new coach by tomorrow, then this post is a waste of time, but what the heck. Also, I admit to having no experience whatsover in hiring coaches, but then I suspect most of you don't either. So here's my 2 cents worth. My first and perhaps...

    Good ISU Candidate List

    Hope Pollard at least gives Jeff Hornacek a call. Granted he has no direct college coaching experience, but I have a strong hunch he would be great. He has been a winner every where he has been. I think he may have a passion for Iowa State like Paul Rhoades. One of the smartest and hardest...

    New head coach... who do you want??

    I also vote for Jeff Hornacek. He would be a natural. Was a coach on the floor all of his years of playing. One of the best all-time shooters and after retirement as a player has coached some of the Utah Jazz current players on shooting. He is originally from the Midwest and I believe his wife...

    John Walters on KXNO at 5:15

    People seem down on Freddy, so maybe this idea won't be liked either. But I hope they at least consider Jeff Hornacek. Anyone who watched him play at ISU or in the pro's for that matter realize he was always a coach on the floor. Orr actually said that numerous times. Coaching in his blood, as...
