Jake Campos Injured

INSUBORDINATE-AND-CHURLISH.jpg

Ba-la-kay? Is there a Ba-la-kay here today?

The Mrs won't let me name our new son Balakay, or A Aron either. She's a fun hater.

You done messed up A-Aron!

Can I be excused from this thread. I gotta go pick up my daughter...
I came here to see some real updates on the Campos injury, but instead I have to read through all these funny posts. This is bull ****!

Mods - please make a thread that is only news, updates, and insider information.
 
Wow, some people freak at a little adversity. I am really bummed for Campos. These kids put in so much work and then to get hurt during practice has to be a huge disappointment.

That said, the staff has plenty of time to adjust before the first game. Sure individual talent is important, but for the OL, having a cohesive position group is more important. I trust that we have kids on the roster that will step up and the coaching staff will scheme accordingly. Having an offense that utilizes the TE position in different ways will help.

My expectations haven't changed because of the Campos injury. I fully expect ISU to win 6 games and make a bowl. Seems kind of silly to jump ship before we play our first games.

Why would you "trust" that? I might, if CMC had had a chance to patch up the OT position like he did several others...but somebody's brother decided that UGA was a better "fit" for him. I'll hope that happens, but I don't see any reason to trust that it will.

On the other hand, Coach Campbell likely now has a better chance of recruiting a highly touted JC offensive tackle this year...
 
Feel bad for him. He has put in a lot of work and then two weeks before the season starts....
I broke my ankle in 20+ pieces a few years ago and I am still on IR!!! To be able to walk without a limp is a blessing. Hope he heals quickly.

Agree with everything but for the last paragraph. I think to be able to jump ship, the ship needs to be above water. While CMC feels like the right captain, he has an entire roster that has turned over with precious little experience. A win this season is getting the attitude right, getting the systems established and repped, and building on each and every little thing that goes into greatness. An actual win in the field is gravy for me this year (not that I don't want many, many wins).
 
I'm just sad that someone called me a poser. I just lost all my street cred.

How come with ALL the options to "like, disagree, funny, informative", etc.. there is NO street cred button? I would give you virtual street cred for being open and honest on an anonymous chat board.

Meh. Every fan base does. This isn't something unique to Iowa State. Just like preseason injuries aren't unique to Iowa State, although our fans seem to always insist that it is.
I know I know, I was somewhat #jimladding. I hope some of our less experienced guys can step up and pick up Jake. Tough situation, but hopefully it doesn't cost us as much as we feel it will.
 
Wow - you posters who blast others as stupid, dumb etc...are worst kind of fans. Hopefully you all realize forums are for people to express opinions and voice their concerns. Social bullying as you display is tantamount to cowardice. Based on your flippant responses and asinine behavior I wonder if you really have lives or troll on here to make yourself feel better about your insignificant existence? Go home to your mommies and get a job posers - real fans don't need you! I go to games to cheer and write about my concerns and displeasure - not for your amusement or attacks. Kiss my a**!

Yeah... umm... if you can't stand a little internet bullying sarcasm then CF isn't the place for you.
