I'm still with CPR and this team
- Thread starter atlantacyclone
- Start date
We are talented enough to compete with and even beat Texas Tech. But at this point, does it really even matter?
Well, at least we saw some adjustments at halftime! ISU should have won this game easily. The team wasn't ready to play. That is on CPR. How many of our starters from the summer are still around?
I really can appreciate your stick-to-it-ness. I have jumped ship because I honestly feel like the kids have quit on CPR. That is the beginning of the end of things if that is truly the case.
"Lots of missed opportunities."
That's what is killing Rhoads.
The blowouts (especially the super-blowouts) don't help, and the bad losses have piled up.
But I could list at least eight "missed opportunities" in the past six seasons that would have kept him firmly on the safe side for at least another season. Not just games ISU "probably should have won" — close losses. About half of them are vs. KSU.

I can't say if the team has quit on him, but the fans are starting to turn on him. When Iowa State fan base begins to fragment, it's a bad sign, because ISU fans are usually patient to a fault.
Note: It's stick-to-itiveness. :smile:
I love our cyclones but I think the quickest way to get Rhoads out is to not have butts in the seats. As much as I would love to go to the remaining games, I will not attend another game with Rhoads as our coach. Nothing against the guy, he just can't get it done.
negativity, or positivity for that matter, of a bunch of overemotional fans on a message board effects the play on the field in absolutely no way.
people have every reason to be ****** when the players have quit and the coaches are mailing it in.
The season was over when NDSU **** pounded us. Have fun clinging to the CPR failboat.
This x10. I think ISU can beat Texas Tech but these past two seasons have made it tough to see any hope.
I've seen your pictures, you could use a little deflating.
wink:As for me, I'm sticking with this beer, until it's clear that it's time for it to go, then I'll jump to the next one. Thankfully, I don't have a huge buyout onna beer to worry about.
Thats funny that you gave me the correct way to use it. I typed it out as stick-to-it-ivness, but then second guessed myself by asking, "what the hell does the "iv" have to with it? So I left it out even though it didn't sound right. Turns out I still wouldn't have had it exactly right.
No. We're not. Tech by 2 touchdowns at least. Odds are we spot them that many before we even move the ball significantly.
