    Perspective from the Big Ten and some much needed clarifications

    My concern is if this takes more than one season to settle out, how does it impact recruiting? Just feels like ISU needs to find a home now or risk seeing the on the field quality drop, and make us less marketable in the process. Hope I am wrong, but I have a bad feeling about this. *Editing to...

    TV for tonghts game?

    I suspect I know the answer before I ask it, but does anyone know if it will be on locally in Cedar Rapids. Or is the answer to look at the Cedar Rapids watch location thread? Thanks in advance.

    I like the KU fans that come to Hilton

    As an alumni and fan of both institutions, when these two teams play each other is about the one sporting event in the country when I am neutral and I don't see it only from my teams point of view, I also see it from the other sides point of view. And as a KU fan let me say to OoberJay, please...

    Wedding bands for men... what do you like?

    This is pretty much what I have and I like it. No diamonds or anything (which bug me on men's rings), simple, but still unique and not boring.

    Odds for Player retention next year

    Yeah the poll results so far agree with my perception of things. I hope Dende and Colvin both stick around. If McDermott stays I think they will too, don't really know why. If he goes, all bets are off.

    If you could choose one Cyclone from the past to come and help this team out

    I can't believe it took so long to be said (though I am not the first) but Wesley Johnson. Brackins, Gilstrap and Welsey? Plus some other players who could be more role players with a true PG? ISU would be in the top 25 certainly, maybe higher. Another name I havn't heard yet would be Rashon...

    Knowing what I know about the KU boards, that will be started before the game.

    Roll Call: ISU vs Kansas in Lawrence (2/13)

    You wanna talk ticking them off? I am a KU grad student. My camping group got lucky in the lottery this week. That means my buddies and I will be the 6th group let in, which almost guarantees a first or second row seat somewhere in the student section. I will be wearing gold, hopefully in the...

    Mangino vs. Ferentz?

    Disclaimer: At KU for grad school, when not rooting for ISU I will root for KU I am going to have to say Ferentz. Only because Mangino couldn't recruit his way out a paper sack with the stuff that is hanging around his neck right now. I believe he is better at X's and O's than Ferentz and also...

    What movies from the 1980's would you like to see redone?

    Yes it is but it fills a similar need.

    What movies from the 1980's would you like to see redone?

    Movies worthy of a remake. Trading Places- Don't get me wrong, I love the movie. But with all the crap going on right now seems like it could be relevant again. Oh and no Jim Belushi this time. Beetle Juice- Never a particularly big fan of this movie. However, the special effects could use...

    To the OP. You are getting you wish on Ghostbusters. I just tripped across this last night while watching Stripes.

    New Article on Mangino

    New rumors are from KU campus, boards, and radio: - Poke was just that a poke, probably closer to a shove. - Reason this blew up was more Mangino's track record of using very personal things to insult players. (Parent's Alcoholism, Brother getting shot, etc.) Players started to defect. - Due...
