    Re: Freshman

    Its been 10 years, and I really enjoy reading the advice from the current students, brings back to my first day. All good advice that I see the only thing I am going to say is work hard when you have too, and have a lot of fun when you can. Hope to see you on saturdays in the student section cheering on your new coach.
    Two favorite teams, the Cyclones, and whoever is playing the Hawkeyes!

    ha, so true, unless your a freshman girl who is hot, thats the only way its allowed to have your head in a map, no better way to meet the freshman chicks, "oh are you lost, here let me show you where to go"

    BEFORE FOOTBALL SEASON, THERE'S FRESHMAN SEASON
