Man, Coach is FIRED. UP. If you want to question his ability, fine. But do NOT think he isn't motivated, is a "lame duck" or is just collecting paychecks. He wants to win more than any of us do.

He probably enjoys getting paid also.

Exactly. I mean Rhoads isn't unusual in the fact that he's competitive and wants to win, but the ******** from many, many posters acting like he doesn't give a **** was annoying. He may not end up keeping this job. But the guy wants to win. He made the ultimate gamble by firing the OC in the middle of the season.

I didn't care for it, but I understand there are a lot of factors going into all of this. It would have been better if he would have done what he did in the locker room after beating Texas at Texas. Someone gave him the game ball and asked where it should go. He tossed it the corner and said, "there's where it can go."

This Texas team wasn't that great and one dimensional. We played awesome and it was fun to see ISU beat on someone for a change.

Of course this Texas team isn't that great and is one dimensional. But hell so is Iowa State. And it wasn't the close game that we were all probably hoping for. It was a complete domination. Texas got past the 50 one before the last drive. ONE TIME. They had so many 3 and outs. Before the last drive, they had 29 yards of offense in almost 28 minutes of the 2nd half. 28 ******* yards.

Think of how bad our offense has been at times over the last 3 years. I contend that there have not been many times our offense was as bad as Texas was last night. That's good defense.

I love Rhoads and hope he can pull it together, but I am not a fan of the whining about recruiting all the time. We all know ISU has disadvantages, doesn't mean as the poster child you should complain about it numerous times to the media.
