    Smoking Meat Questions and Discussion

    Property Insurance

    How much did your coverage limits go up? Companies have been pretty aggressive with the Replacement Cost valuations, so if your home coverage limits went up 15%, the overall premium would follow in addition to the rate taken

    Property Insurance

    "Trade Combined Ratio". 100 means you break even, and companies will often target something like a 90-95 TCR for rate making. These expense and profit targets along with the actuarial justifications have to be filed (usually ~ 5 year rollups). The whole industry had a TCR of like 102 in 2023 and...

    Some potential non-basketball factors: he's from Wisconsin and coached at Romulus for a long time. He's probably familiar with the area and could consider that region home.

    Mouser the new OC

    I've seen OC's split between PGC and RGC usually as co-OCs, not with OC, PGC, and RGC. Is this another "OC by committee" type of an approach with Mouser with final say?

    Cold Brew by Northern Vessel

    Just thought I'd also add that I noticed their new cold brew just has their NV logo instead of the We Will. Maybe we @brentblum can chime in on if these still go to support NIL

    Where Iowa State might turn to find an offensive coordinator replacement

    If Mouser (or another internal candidate) is the OC, wouldn't we still need to fill a QB coach? Regardless of the OC, I'd be curious who rounds out the staff

    Cold Brew by Northern Vessel

    It looks like they might only have it locally for now, but I could check next time I'm in if they have plans on expanding the production. I wouldn't be surprised if they're going to wait to get enough feedback after how round 1 might have been a little rushed. There was still some acidity to...

    Cold Brew by Northern Vessel

    Tried the new cold brew - they swapped out the orange extract with chocolate extract and is much better. It's definitely worth another try.

    Paul Rhoads update

    3rd interim gig (Arkansas after Bielema was fired, Arizona after Sumlin was fired; both short-term post season type). I wonder if there's some sort of a record for that.

    Electric Snow Blower

    How long does the battery last on these electric snow blowers? I live on a corner house with 2-3x the sidewalk, so it would be nice to able to actually complete the sidewalks and driveway before running out of battery.

    Homeowners insurance claims

    Worked in actuarial pricing dept for homeowners for 7 years before taking a new role few years ago. Rate changes are all filed and approved by the state and every rate need needs to be justified.

    Tracking games played by the true freshmen

    Does the Bowl game count toward the count for RS, or can players play a 5th game at a Bowl and still keep their RS? I wasn't sure the if it was some one year exception last season or if it was that way going forward
