    Financial Aid Advice

    This is where people go wrong when going the CC then 4 year route. They just take the classes at their CC without doing research into what transfers. When you go CC, you need to be talking to their advisors and transfer advisors about what will transfer. If you're looking at 2-3 4 year schools...

    T.J. Tampa projected as first round pick going into NFL Combine

    I enjoy using this website as it compiles all of the mock drafts out there. Interesting to see so many having him go to Detroit before Kiper put his out there. https://www.nflmockdraftdatabase.com/players/2024/tj-tampa

    Senior Eligibility

    He is the same weight as Rob on the roster (255lbs) and I'm willing to bet he gains another 5-10lbs since that weight was recorded. I think he will have the style of play a lot like Dickinson from Kansas. BTW Dickinson is 260lbs.

    247 recruiting rankings

    The margin for being ranked in the top half v bottom half is so small. There's so much parity in this conference both on the field and recruiting. One year we could be ranked top 5, the next, last. We just need to find the right sauce of players, formation, plays for the new look league.

    New WR COMMIT

    Advise Needed - Vehicles for Three Kids

    I have a highlander. If I had the chance to go back, I would have gotten the Sequoia or a minivan. Highlander is okay for now with all 3 between 4 and 8 but as the long drive hauler, we want more space. My wife has a prius and we do 3 across in that. We use the Diono seats and they fit well. I...

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    Was diving down a rabbit hole and came across this while checking out the Annual Energy Outlook from the Energy Information Administration. One thing that stood out to me; smaller share of market at 2050 than I was expecting especially considering it included EV and PHEV.

    Ames Lager Update

    bought 4 6ers before I left Iowa. Wish I could be back to purchase more often as I'd love to have it as my house beer.

    Poll: ISU -3 vs Baylor

    Campbell teams at ISU have only won 1 game after a bye (I think- looked at it quick while on my run this morning). I figured he would be better after the open weekends but record has not been great. Hope he breaks trend.
