    2023-2024 MBB computer projections thread

    Hello there. I know this thread is normally one started in the fall a few weeks before the basketball season begins, but with so much about the roster already changing and changes coming through portal season, I thought I would start it now and lean on the Bart Torvik ("BT") preseason...

    2022-2023 MBB computer projections thread

    Guest Friday OT -- "I Am God's Socialist"

    Hi everybody. @Angie is enjoying the festivities in London right now, so she invited me to post a guest Friday OT. Once upon a time, a boy was born in small-town Indiana in 1931. Once he grew up to be a man, he moved to Indianapolis and became a noted civil rights leader in the region during...

    New Mississippi State Flag

    And before I say anything else, we are not here to debate the politics of the flag. We are only here to talk about vexillology -- the study of the aesthetics and symbolism of flags. Anyways, here is what the state's commission is recommending to the voters for this November -- That verges...

    Best ISU Football Team You've Watched

    I thought I would make the happier version. :) My answer is the 2017 team. Easily handled Northern Iowa. Really should have finished off Iowa in Ames. Easy win at Akron (and I was 3/3 for attending games at this point). The infamous "Jacob Park gets the cold shoulder" game against Texas...

    K-State game (on November 30, 2019)

    Hey there -- I am 99% sure I am going to drive down to Manhattan for the K-State game in November. I have been to Manhattan but never a game there and am going to be back in Iowa for the holiday, so I figured why not borrow one of my dad's numerous cars and head down. Questions... (1.) Best...

    2018-2019 computer projections thread

    I thought I would make a thread for updating projections throughout the season. This comes up across several threads, so I thought to centralize it here for everybody. Some of this will be predictive on a game-by-game or season basis, some of this will be chances of making the tournament, some...

    Chart of 2017-2018 playing time

    I kept a chart of playing time throughout the 2017-2018 season. I have done this for a few years -- it helps show some trends in rotations, roster development, and, in hindsight, telling the "story" of the season. That is definitely the case this year with different colors phasing in and out...
