    Omaha enters the transfer portal (confirmed)

    I am 51, I am no Boomer! :)

    Omaha enters the transfer portal (confirmed)

    Here is my take. I miss when we could see the same players one year to the next and see them develop. My wife has totally stopped watching Iowa State basketball games because she hates having to get to know a totally new group of players every year. And I watched maybe 6 games this year...

    Omaha enters the transfer portal (confirmed)

    I think it is just really frustrating for most of us that we only get a 5-star McD AA about once every 30 years and he is a bust, while other teams get them all the time and they have an almost immediate impact.

    Bradley's Goanar Biliew in the Portal (Omaha's brother)

    I am going to send you the medical bill for my heart attack. (OK, I didn't really have one, but I almost did) Anyway, how good is he? Worth offering him to help encourage his brother?

    The long wait until a very mediocre football season has begun!

    I still have not forgiven Campbell for the Memphis game. Do they really have that much more team talent than we do? Anyway, somebody tell me why I should be excited about this football season because I am not.

    Is there a time out yet?

    An honest discussion: what happened to Greg McDermott at ISU?

    Hiring McDermott was not a complete mistake. Fact is, Otz would not be coaching here if we hadn't hired McDermott. The big mistake was in not hiring Otz to replace Hoiberg, but that is a different discussion.

    Omaha Roll Call

    I could walk to the arena from my home. :) Unfortunately, I can't afford a ticket.

    Would you press a button to guarantee 3 National Championships in 15 years if it meant Iowa got 4 in the same time period?

    Does Iowa compete in Division 1 baseball? They can have that. It would be a big boost to the Council Bluffs economy to have Iowa in the College World Series. They can also have women's golf. And we can have 2 in basketball and 1 in football.

    Would you press a button to guarantee ISU would never win a national championship, but also all Hawkeye fans would be rendered mute?

    I am in Council Bluffs, Hawkeye fandom is negligible around here, despite Hy Vee's best efforts. So, no way.

    *** Official Selection Sunday Thread ***

    I think if we had had 1 more non-con win, we would have been a #1 seed.

    I don't understand us. WE are afraid of DRAKE?

    *** Official Selection Sunday Thread ***

    Where do we play the Big 12 Tournament? KANSAS City, close to TWO conference teams, yet we outdraw them and turn the games into virtual ISU home games. We can do the same thing with the Hospital Arena.

    Pat yourselves on the back, Cyclone fans

    Kelvin Sampson has always been an Iowa State fan. I remember the endless praise he had for ISU during the Fizer years. I slightly expected him to join the ISU coaching crew. :)

    Voyager 1 is likely dead

    NASA hasn't said it officially, but the part of the spacecraft that functions most like a "computer" (it is too old to have a "CPU") is still sending meaningless data, and months after this started happening, NASA's engineers have not been able to fix it. Part of the problem is that this is...

    What would cause TJ to move?

    On paper it definitely is. But that doesn't mean anything in practicality.

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    I am as liberal as they come, but I am also practical about it. I think EVs are not quite there yet, probably another 10 years before I would buy one. One problem is that the lithium-ion battery technology doesn't do well in cold temperatures. Sodium ion isn't as good at high temps, but in the...

    Guys, this is his third season and you are just now realizing that he is a good coach? He took us to the Sweet 16 of the NCAAs the very next season after winning 2 games! One of the biggest turnarounds in NCAA basketball history.
