    Cyclones in the pros 2023-2024 (hoops)

    Well, it's almost my favorite season of the year - basketball - and we've had some lively threads discussing Georges, Tyrese, Monte etc. So I wanted to get this year's thread started and I've again labeled it "in the pros" as I've dug up some info that I'll share on Naz and Matt who are playing...

    FIBA World Cup

    I hadn't seen a thread and thought we could use one - some high-level hoops being played, starting today. Unfortunately, times for games in Manila are often not compatible with US schedules. Games can often be accessed later on ESPN+, it seems. If I had to place a bet of the USA vs. The Field...

    NBA: Cyclones in the pros 2021-23 (hoops)

    Well, I'm no CycloneRulzzz but we have a request for this year's thread on ISU post-grads plying their trade on the hardwood. @Cyientist, I was just reading tweets on Niang's night and was thinking that this year's thread was due. I'll throw out some preseason content to tip it off. I look...

    Cyclones in the pros (hoops) 2020-2021

    Training camps start this week in the NBA so I thought it was time for a new season's thread on our guys in basketball that have gone pro. We haven't really had a place for guys ballin' overseas so I left it as "in the pros" because I want to check in on guys like Ejim, Kane, D. Jackson etc. I...

    Cyclones in the NFL - 2020 - 2021 season.

    We didn't have a single place last year to post about Montgomery, Lazard, Klein, Osemele etc. so I'm starting this one.

    Cyclones AND the NFL 2020: Off-season, draft, contracts, season review

    I thought we could use a thread to post info on guys who have been in the NFL and MIGHT get to the NFL. We have some good stories from the 2019-2020 season such as Allen Lazard and David Montgomery, and we hope to see Hakeem Butler back and competing for time on the field next year. I haven't...

    NBA: **Cyclones in the NBA and G-League, 2019-2020

    The season kicks off tomorrow (10/22) and we have more guys to follow than in recent memory, albeit not a lot of expected impact players. I'll try to post clips and guys' lines on here. Last year, we had quite a bit of discussion on Monte, who remains the hot bet to get the most PT of ex ISU...

    Cam Lard signs with Turkish club

    Did we all miss this? I did and I couldn't find it on the CF boards anywhere. Cam Lard has a 1-year deal in Turkey. I am going to try to find out more about this club to see if it's in Turkey's top flight because that is a good league (the USA's team needed a lot of luck to beat Turkey at the...

    Ejim vs. Team USA

    The USA World Cup team takes on Canada in an exhibition in Australia on Monday, August 26. That game will be aired on NBA TV at 5:30 am ET / 4:30 am CT. That will also be streamed live on FuboTV (which apparently you can try for free - don't have the details). My guess is that NBA TV will re-air...

    Nick will be teaming up with Hans Brase, who just played his rookie year in the German league (I wonder if he's getting those knees back to where they were a few years ago?)

    Donovan Jackson - playing in Europe

    So, I missed all this. Apparently Donovan Jackson played with a club called Pardubice in the Czech Republic (I'm still using that name). He averaged 14 points a game and has just signed with a Greek club (which is probably an upgrade in pay). There isn't a lot of English language news on either...

    NBA: Cyclones' off-season: contracts, draft, summer league

    With contracts up in the air for 4 of the 5 ex-Cyclones that saw NBA action this year, 2 declaring for the draft and the possibilities that Shayok will be looked at by NBA teams, I thought this would be a good place for discussion on the NBA off-season. Draft analysis for the current guys...
