One aspect of the Iowa State football program that has consistently seemed to lag behind—especially compared to other teams in the conference—is player speed.

Even during the Campbell era, this was a noticeable issue. However, more recently, coaches like Hank Poteat and Noah Pauley have raised the standard, emphasizing speed in the players they recruit.

Let’s take a look at the high school 100-meter dash times under 11.0s for some of our current players.

For reference:

Kene Nwangwu: 10.55s
Darien Porter: 10.69s

Current Players:

WR Brett Eskildsen: 10.52s
WR Dominic Overby: 10.54s
RB Aiden Flora: 10.61s
S Jeremiah Cooper: 10.65s
DB Connor Welsch: 10.66s
CB Khijohnn Cummings-Coleman: 10.71s
CB Mason Ellens: 10.73s
S Carson Van Dinter: 10.73s
CB David Coffey: 10.75s
WR Karon Brookins: 10.80s
LB Will Hawthorne: 10.82s
RB Abu Sama: 10.84s
RB Carson Hansen: 10.85s

Future Players

WR Jeffrey Roberts: 10.69s
S Tyrell Chatman: 10.78s
S Bryson Williams: 10.88s

Beni Ngoyi and Xavier Townsend never ran below 11.0s

For many years I naively thought that I was unique when I got a tingly, relaxed feeling when I heard certain noises like someone eating popcorn or the sound of a spoon on a bowl while someone was eating something out of one or to whispering or other random triggering sounds. Then a few years ago I found out this is a very real human thing called Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. Makes sense that I am not the only one in a world of billions who experiences this. Sometimes to go to sleep I play a YouTube video of a woman reading a cookbook in a whispered voice. For me it is more relaxing than anything on the "Calm" App.

It is now a month from the Cardinal and Gold scrimmage, 5 weeks until Drake scrimmage and 6 weeks until the first game (in Ohio).

What are you looking forward to most this season? Any picks for a player to be a great surprise? Any front line combo you look forward to?

Can’t wait till the first serve.

I literally love my two dogs like family. That's coming from someone who has five children and two grandchildren. I'm not saying that I love my dogs more than my children or grandchildren, but I do love my dogs the same sort of way. I'm 100% sure that I would risk my own life to save either of them (house fire, gorilla or tiger attack or other unlikely event). I just look at my dogs and I see a real connection. I'm almost fully sure that they totally understand human feeling and feel the same way back to me as far as caring and love. I'm not saying this is a dog only thing as I'm sure others feel the same way with cats or other pets. Just holding my Goldendoodle now and watch him look at me made me thought to gush, I'm sure he "gets" me.

It may be easiest to explain this one by example.

I have a few different core groups of friends - a few from school, several mom friends, some couple friends and individual relationships that are offshoots, and work/volunteer friends. I think most likely mom friends and couple friends/combinations are my closest.

When you think of your closest core group of friends, are they the same people with whom you went to grade school? Are they friends from a club? Work? How has this changed over time?

anybody ever done something like this? I have an old fixer upper I constantly work on. the exterior stair rail is steel with 1/8" diamond plate treads. clearly haven't been resealed in 40+ years. I pressure washed the entire thing, and 95% of the primer remained intact and probably 50% of the paint. The treads at some point has some sort of rubberized coating that pealed off with the pressure washer.

These things were built poorly and are in kind of rough shape to to how it was constructed. I will have to go over a small amount of rust and existing paint/primer/rubberized coating (still remains in nooks.

Thoughts? heavy duty exterior paint?
truck bed liner?

Cooking myth No. 1 (IMO): It's crucial to let a steak rest before slicing into it after cooking. WRONG! It's not crucial and the benefit of letting it rest is negligible to begin with. The idea is that resting the steak allows the juices, which migrate toward the center of the steak during cooking, can spread out to the rest of the steak during the resting process. The truth is there's just not that much juice involved to begin with, maybe a tsp, if that, and resting the steak adds very little value to the finished product. Thicker cuts may benefit more, but even that is arguable. So next time you hear some high-end chef telling you that you need to rest your steak before eating it, call BS on the guy.

Randomly thinking of the Crash Davis "I believe" speech in Bull Durham here are my beliefs on superficial stuff. I believe in top shelf bourbon, Maduro cigars, stouts of no less than 10% ABV, steaks done no more than medium rare to light medium, dungeness crab is way better than blue crab, leaving no less than a 20% tip at a restaurant ever and no one will ever be as happy to see you come home at the end of the day as a dog will.

Looking for some advice/info. We have a family member that wants to attend a couple of home games this year. (She has a permanent handicap parking license plate.) Do the fill up fairly early. Also what about the handicap spots by Hilton? Any tips appreciated.

In the Des Moines metro, there is a brand new chain link fence that runs along the south side of Beaver Creek between the Des Moines River and the Merle Hay exit. And I believe that I saw a similarly placed fence south of the metro near Raccoon River and I-35. Other than attempting to keep flood debris off the interstate I have no idea why it was installed. I am guessing others know the real answer, so my question, why the fence?
