Good luck this season Iowa State. Paul Rhoads is a great coach and I believe he will lead your squad into the right direction. Rhoads reminds me of Snyder when he first arrived at K-State.

I like the Iowa State Kansas State rivalry...make sense. And ISU, KSU and KU are three schools with honor. Mizzou doesn't fit that moniker.

When people say it can never happen at ISU, I always like to use the success that Snyder had at K-State as an example that anything can happen anywhere with the right people in place.

Thanks for the well wishes, and good luck to you...except when we come down to KC for revenge.

judging by your username you rely on k-state winning a lot to counteract the pain from the royals.

I agree with this big time. Even though I/ and many others like to poke fun and Snyder from time to time (mostly cup cake schedules) you still gotta respect what he did and where he did it.

I think that ISU, KSU, and KU will really need to stick together as a family over the next several years. We may be rivals on the field and court, but off of it we desperately need to stay together.

We are the only 3 schools that showed loyalty to the Big 12 over the last year. That means a lot.

As with all of our old Big 8 brothers; I hope KSU's wins the final conference game vs. the turNcoats.

**Haverhill** · 08-07-2010, 11:17 AM

I hope N goes 0-12 next year and I will be disappointed if they go 1-11.

I hate K-State.

That said, I love the Royals.

Never understood K-State hate. I hate Snyder, but I respect the hell out of him. He built a borderline dynasty at a place that's even harder to recruit to than Ames. I hate how he used to tun the score up on us, but you can make a case that he's the best college coach of all time.

But K-State is so similar a University to ISU that I can't bag on 'em. The folks in Manhattan are pretty friendly and like to party, so I can't complain.

Good luck this season, too.

I expect ISU & KSU to battle for third in the North. So I can only wish you a certain degree of success.

**cyclones500** · 08-07-2010, 12:32 PM

Not that you asked, but I have KSU’s season going this way:

UCLA L
Missouri State W
v. ISU L
UCF W
Nebraska L
@KU W
@ Baylor W
Okla State L
Texas L
@Missouri L
@ Colorado W
@UNT W
6-6 (3-5)

I hope I’m right on at least one of those L’s

This is why I'd like to see Farmageddon be a trophy game. We need to make as many lasting connections as possible with the other 3 North teams. Anything to try and keep the turnicate on this conference is huge for ISU.

And if the B12 dissolves at some point, the 4 north teams as a package look a hell of lot better than ISU by themselves. I'm looking at you, Big East.

How is Manhattan a harder place to recruit to than Ames? WTF?

Anyways, this is your last year to win the North ISU. C'mon 'clones!
