    Just got more information on ISU travel packages: Feb. 20 - 25 Director Level Donors Feb. 26 - 28 - Victory Level Donors Feb. 29 - Mar. 4 - All Cyclone Club Members Mar. 5 - All Fans & Alumni* I think the asterisk is "if available".

    Cyclones MBB in 2024 Maui Invite

    I got nervous about waiting for the Cyclone booster package being available and went ahead and got an all tournament pass as well (was able to convince my dad and brother to join me). Now I just have to hold out hope that some just Cyclone ticket packages end up available so the wife and kids...

    Cyclones MBB in 2024 Maui Invite

    All tournament passes just went on sale today. Here's what it says for Iowa State packages: "Top Cyclone Club members will receive priority access to ticket and travel packages. Based on availability, packages may become available to general fans starting 2/29." I'm Gold, and haven't seen...

    Anyone finish this AM’s Wordle #457?

    My wife does most of those, and the duotrigordle, which is just too much for me (37 guesses for 32 words)...

    We Will Collective-The Drive

    On this note, I donated, and noticed that the email you get after a donation is very plain. There is no graphics or links back to the WeWill collective. It might be a nice idea to add in some WeWill marks on the e-mail or do some formatting to make it stand out a bit more. Another option...

    Three turnovers and two blocked punts...

    Didn't Campbell bring in a ST coordinator over the offseason? So he is doing something to address it. Maybe it takes longer than we'd like, but it's not fair to lump Campbell in as someone who is not trying to adapt given how his teams perform. Edit: He is a special team's analyst, not...

    Tyrese Hunter Entering the Transfer Portal - NIL Speculation

    Online classes aren't new, and it's pretty simple to prove integrity in the same way you do for in-person classes, you have a proctor for exams. At least that's how it worked 20 years ago when I took an online class the summer before I was on campus in Ames (Somehow I had forgotten geometry...

    Engineering Degree

    Just to pile on with an additional data point with a lot of great feedback that I've read so far - while choosing a field is important, it doesn't necessarily shut doors to other options later in life. I knew I wanted to go into Computer Engineering, and graduated in '06 with a CprE degree...

    Iowa State cracking down on sports clubs

    I think a lot of people are mis-reading the slides. The last slide is not higher risk than the second slide. They are suggesting they stop supporting (e.g. funding) those on the last slide. All of the clubs on the 2nd and 3rd slide seem to have been deemed high risk in one regard or another...

    [COMMITMENT WATCH] 6'5" 360lb. DT Tawfiq Thomas

    I think the tweet is just referencing they are both headed to Ames for their Official Visits. Don't know that this hints at a commitment soon. (I'd love to be wrong here).

    Volvo Going Electric/Online Only By 2030

    I have an order for an AWD Mustang Mach E, and a reservation still (that I need to cancel for a VW ID.4 AWD). Both are a bit shy of true SUV territory, but it does seem like more truck EV options are incoming soon :).

    RECRUITING: Cyclones land Washington State transfer

    I think the difference is this transfer is from another P6 team, not a mid-major, and has shown that he can be effective after an injury.

    https://www.lucidmotors.com/stories/expanding-lucid-lineup-with-most-attainable-air/ Not exactly a budget friendly one, but 406 miles of range. Edit: Looks like some other options are on the way as well (source). Electric Vehicle EPA est. Range Release Date Tesla Model S Plaid+ 520+ miles...

    Volvo Going Electric/Online Only By 2030

    FWIW - the new Ford Mustang Mach E, and Tesla's both charge 20% - 80% in less than 30 minutes. Seems like most of the reviews I've seen lately on EVs talk about how that's how to approach road trips in an EV. So with the longer range EVs, it's most likely a 30 minute stop every 3-5 hours...
