    Is it really coaching?

    One thing about these forums is if you read them long enough you have pretty much read it all as much don't change. I have one question and one statement to make about our "issue" with winning at ISU on the gridiron. Why in heck do the Coaches NOT put in Lanning at QB enough that he can make a...

    Hawkeyes offsides in Des Moines!

    Here in Cedar Rapids I get a steady dose of Hawkeye Sports shoved down my throat. I go to the Iowa City Veterans Hospital and wear my IOWA STATE garb every chance I get as many of the Doctors and people there are justifiably Hawkeye fans. It irritates me to see they want to prostitate the Des...

    Are we dying from the head down?

    Winning is everything, just ask us losers. But firing Coaches all the time may not be the answer. What makes a successful Coach at a prior school a failure at his current one? A lot to discuss. Iowa State was poor today. Defense was barely better than high-school with arm tackles, terrible lane...

    Direct TV or Dish?

    Please offer me your insight on this matter. I have studied both and am more confused now than before. Looking for the best overall System and need TV and Computer service only. LOVE Cyclone sports and Big 12 with Big 10 to a lesser degree. If you have had one or both and have an opinion let me...

    Mediacom-I'amon,Dish,Direct Tv.-

    I must make a change in my service but to who? I had Mediacom for 8 years and they treat you like the plague. Switched to I'mon and only watch about three programs. I love ISU but it seems they don't broadcast them much. Missed the ISU-kansas game which was the last straw. Now my question is do...

    What happened?

    My, how the mighty have fallen. From the days of Carl Adams, Chuck Jean, Tom Peckham, Dan Gable. Those ISU teams would of eaten up Iowa or ISU today. What the hell is going on? Getting beat by almost all in dual meets is bad. Real Bad. Very disappointed not only where we are headed, but where we...

    Commenting on Chris's message today

    iowaboy says: May 3, 2010 at 6:40 pm Oh come on Chris! You are going on the assumption that Hoiberg is OUR GUY! Then and only then does your argument have merit. This is the 2nd time Pollard has sped up the process. Seems to me the football search was pretty quick. JP said that he wanted to...

    Are you all sure?

    Are you sure it will be Hoiberg? Perhaps it was a smokescreen to get us leaning and in comes Gillespie from the other side. I can't understand why Fred with NO coaching experience is JP's choice given the fact that this is JP's last shot to get it right. I would bet on a true therobred like...

    Best Marching bands in Big 12

    I know I know. Many of you could care less. But I find when I attend a College or High school game that the Marching Band adds greatly to the atmosphere. The Marching Bands in many cases can be the largest student group representing many schools and it can give you a pulse as to whom they are...

    Miller & Deace, Absolutely.

    For those of you who have better things to do like shaving your back hair or watching concrete harden go right ahead. This post will end up being rather long and I have no back or chest hair as a good man keeps it worn off and I have been thinking of writing something like this for a long time...

    Coach Jackson

    I wrote this article last year and I am glad to say things are looking up! ISU has much more intensity and are winning matches coming from behind. That did not happen much under the other guy. BTW, Penn State sits out East and cherry picks those easy duals and stays away from the midwest where...

    "I yam what i yam!"

    Ok gentleman, Here we go. You know why ISU gets the crappy end of the stick almost always? Because we deserve it. We command vertually NO respect, we have a Caulk Robin (the sky is falling) excuse for everything and don't do anything about it. Teams don't respect us, Officials don't respect us...

    What me worry!

    There is tremendous speculation right now as to whom will be taking over the reins of ISU wrestling. There are some great candidates out there some without ISU ties. Many of you have cast your line to whomever and I submit to you overall it doesn't make much difference. In wrestling the head...

    Ankeny Police Incompetent!

    I figure this will get some play but why are the Ankeny Police so BADGE HEAVY! First off, this does NOT pertain to me but Someone close to me whom I trust. The Ankeny Police seen more content to hone their skills on two areas rather then protect the Community. The two areas are "Window Tinting"...
