ISU Trivia

[dmb341]

Are we talking football and basketball? Or other sports?

After thinking about, I didn't define the question very well, so as an added caveat, one of the sports must be either football or basketball. Also "score" is maybe not the right word to use, but this person added to Iowa State's point total in more than one sport.

Complete shot in the dark... Hughes Suffren

That's not who I'm thinking

I guess my best guess is RJ Sumrall. I'm fairly certain he ran some sprints for the track team a few years ago.

Good guess. Not who I was thinking of, but he might actually be the correct answer. (Not sure about who "scored" more recently.)

What about for basketball?

I've got nothing.

name all the ISU FB assistant coaches on the 1971-1972 staff that went on to be Div 1 or NFL head coaches??? where for each.

Bill Cox
Jim Dyar
Jerry Fiat
Ray Greene
George Haffner
Keith Kephart
Joe Madden
Jackie Sherrill - Washington State, Pittsburgh, Texas A&M, Mississippi State

Winner. The 8 point win over Pitt in the 2000 Insight Bowl is the largest margin of victory of a current BCS team that was a non-conference game.

Next:

Since 1960, what is the most points that ISU has ever beat a ranked opponent by?

Okie State in 1971, 56-0.

[khaal53]

Okie State in 1971, 56-0.

Okie State wasn't ranked for that game, it was a 54-0 whoopin' though.

didn't Joe Bugel spend some time at ISU? (without looking it up LOL)

[MookInLincoln]

BTW, I didn't use any resource that isn't readily available to everyone

Yep.

And John Fox and Dave Campo were on Criner's staff, but not at the same time.

Campo spent one year in Ames ('83), then went to Miami and won a national championship with Jimmy Johnson (small world).

Fox was a one-year guy ('84) also.

Here is the answer to my question. I'll link to it in case anyone wants to keep guessing.

[dmb341]

Curtis Stinson played on the NBADL championship team this season. Name another Cyclone (Nick Nurse doesn't count) who won a basketball championship for a Des Moines team after his time at ISU.

Jimmy Johnson was an assistant under Majors at ISU along with Sherrill and Avezzano. Now that was a coaching staff.

Misread the Q, ugh.
