    **** WBB: Game Thread - Cyclones host #4 Iowa Wednesday 6:00 pm ESPN2 ****

    Somebody's gotta get to Bill about some of those offensive sets. Brutal to watch. Even more so when you don't have an All-American to run it with.

    $3M in gross sales? Or is that what the athletic department collected after everything was said and done? FWIW, I don’t buy JP’s morality stance on this. I think it’s strictly an economic one for him.

    I'm honestly surprised that the outrage over the no-beer sales flared up again. Did anybody think JP was going to change his mind on a random November afternoon? He gets asked about it at least once a year and his overall sentiment doesn't change. And while some out there (WRNL contributors)...

    ISU football depth chart prediction??

    Not surprised that Willich is listed as a starter. One of the offseason videos put out on social media had players name the hardest hitter on the team, and Willich was listed more than once (obviously there’s more to playing LB than hitting, but still). I am surprised with Neal at LT though...

    REALISTIC expectations for 2023 football season

    Stay on target. Your point about turnarounds not being likely and almost never happening for coaching staffs is the point of discussion here. There are multiple examples of that statement being incorrect regardless of how many caveats you want to throw out there.

    Keep moving those goal posts. You said turnarounds after bad years rarely, if ever, happen for programs. They do. You've been given multiple examples of similar programs to Iowa State doing it. P.S. Campbell and Fitz have the same winning percentage at their current schools.

    REALISTIC expectations for 2023 football season

    Jeff Brohm and Pat Fitzgerald both say “Hi”. Maybe you’ll find a reason to discredit those examples when comparing them to Campbell.

    REALISTIC expectations for 2023 football season

    Northwestern and Purdue? Okay…how about Northwestern and Purdue both winning their division after having down years either the year or two years prior?

    What do you think of Caitlin Clark?

    Keep digging that hole. Maybe you can make it on Message Board Geniuses twice in 24 hours.

    Tough day for EIU hoops hopes

    Nobody tell the Fran defenders, but not only has he underperformed in March, but he's also past his "prime" too. He'll never have another collection of talent like he had in 2019-2022. It's only gonna get worse.

    Most Improbable Win Since?

    Since '17 @ Kansas to me. That win gets talked about a lot because it's "winning at the Phog" and it's just so rare to win down there, but it was critically important to how that season played out. That Monte team was really struggling to find their identify early on and they were not playing...

    What tf is this halftime show analysis? The Big 12 is going to struggle in the tourney because of the officiating? Has Greenberg not watched the last 3 national championship games?
