    Locker room security for Saturday?

    Does anyone know if Pollard sent a letter to Iowa warning them that their locker room may be at risk for theft from their own student leaders? If not, will there be increased security so that ISU won't get accused again?

    Posting a poll to see how many of us have a connection to ISU or Ames. I was curious that some rival posters question the large amount of ISU fans connected to their school. I know some options can apply to a person, so pick the biggest influence.

    Big 10 considering ineligibility for freshmen

    I'm surprised no one posted this: http://espn.go.com/college-sports/story/_/id/12349646/big-ten-considering-ineligibility-freshmen I hope they and the Pac 12 do this without the other conferences, as it would be recruiting suicide for them and should help ISU.
