We ARE Iowa State. So, I wouldn't say odds are against it... I would say more like, It's impossible.

I got a text from a friend...

a hawk friend (evil laugh)

Had class the morning Brakins announced his return... so I had to wait an hour or so until I got the news. Course at the time I was pretty pessimistic, so when I finally got a chance to get to an internet connection, I had the attitide of let's just get this over. Needless to say minutes later my smile had yet to leave my face.
Hoping for a similar reaction tomorrow @ 315 or so.

Was watching the press conference on my laptop in Geology 100 transcribing it for those who couldn't get the video feed.

I literally jumped up and screamed and nailed my head on my loft (which hurt.)

But HB if you're reading this, i'd be MORE THAN WILLING to smack my head again on my loft in joy when you sign with the good guys!

I'm doubting the HB presser is like Brackins. I sat on my computer waiting for him to come to the mic, then saw the press release on the website announcing he was staying. Just thought it was weird that everyone would know before he announced.

**CB21** · 11-13-2009, 12:31 AM

I just remember when all that was happening all I heard was "no chance he's coming back" "sorry guys move on". People that just knew "for sure" he was leaving. This is a similar situation. Soon enough we will be able to either move on or let the fellow haters hear it.

This reminds me of my father who managed to pass out from the injuries he sustained in the excitement of ISU beating KU in 96 to win the big 8 tournament. Evidently when he came through my stepmother was standing over him worried as hell. Of course all he wanted to know was if ISU had just beatin KU or was it a dream. When she affirmed the clone victory, he laid there on the ground in pain but a smile nonetheless.
Needless to say I'll gladly continue the family tradition and sacrifice my body if it means HB signing tomorrow!

I was staying with a family in Tecumseh, NE, who were hosting us as we examined pastoring their church. They saw the game on their DirectTV menu and asked if we'd like to watch.

I told them that I'm a huge Cyclone fan, and if they were OK with that, then let's do it. I think I was the only one in the house that thought we could win that game. That was awesome!!

Just for kicks, we should go ahead and beat Kansas again this year..........
