GameDay Guest Picker

Power up the original ABC computer and let it make a pick for the Cyclones. It would be great publicity for the school in addition to tying in to being on an ABC broadcast.
This is literally the first I have heard of this, but it appears he simply referred an out-of-state company to Reynolds for supplying Iowa’s testing supply. Is there anything more to the story? Because that is objectively not “bilk[ing] the state” out of money.
Again it wasn't my opinion, but it was a no bid contract of dubious legality.
If you guys want to talk politics take it to the cave. The covid crap has no relevance to this thread
It is about Ashton Kutcher factually he did that.
It's still essentially de-railing the topic of this thread with politics. I could care less, he's a douche regardless and that's all that needs to be said.

If it's the first you've heard of it, you're way behind. Crooked deal with Test Iowa. Company he worked with bilked several other states the same way.

Actually, since Ashton Kutcher was involved, and we're talking Ashton Kutcher here, that's pretty relevant Ashton Kutcher information.
Sorry about your delicate sensibilities
First, i LOVE that we get to have a debate like this....guest picker frustrations and thoughts...means we are hosting Gameday and i would love for us to be the opponent at another school's gameday.
I watch a lot of Gameday and while there may be a team tie, it always seems the "celebrity" has some type of national level of recognition.
I LOVE Georges and WE all know he'd be great on the mic and such, but i also recognize that most of America wouldn't know him from his ISU days or his role as an NBA bench player. Same with a guy like Seneca....WE all love "the run" and what he did for us, but to most of viewers they wouldn't be "wowed" by an NFL journeyman.
Honestly, pure ISU right now/relevance I'd think Tyrese or Lazard would be the most relevant as they are both current pros with some name recognition.
Here is a list I found and you'll notice basically well known athletes (past or current ties to school), celebrities with a tie to a school, or random musicians. https://gamedaycole.com/archival-picks/

I unsubscribed from the cave to avoid political jabs like what you guys drug into this. Not surprised to see it's some of the cave regulars that drug this into here either.
LOL cycloneeric derails another one with partisan cave ****
I don't know but I am really bilked by having this dooshcanoe on our nationally televised show.
I mean, you could just ignore those posts. I usually scroll past posts if they are of no interest to me. Sounds like you're making it more of an issue than anyone else.
David Montgomery is a lot more recognizable than Lazard right now. He’s a second round fantasy pick in most drafts so people all over the country pay attention to him.
