    WANTED: Nicknames For Matt Campbell

    I like MC^2. Simplified as MC2. High energy seems to fit. Hard to say but is as good as anything else suggested.

    *New Uniform Thread*

    Seems to me that we have an outstanding Fashion Design department. Let's put them to work co I got up with some that reflects tradition, change and excitement. Most things pictured are pretty boring and look like they could have been worn 5, 10 or even 20 years ago. Maybe a all over mottled...

    Hawks - respect

    Respect to the players, and coaches, such a change from last year. They started winning and started winning and started to believe. Most, but not all Iowa fans will be chest thumping and professing to be the greatest team ever, but got robbed. Rubbing all Cyclones face in it unmercilessly, like...

    Rhoads seems to barely be able to credit Lanning...

    The first part was in response to the statement of DrClone, where he stated that maybe Lanning wasn't quite ready. Sometimes there is a learning curve and then suddenly things click and the learning is attained. I like Lanning, don't feel like SR is the best choice right now, but maybe, just...

    Rhoads seems to barely be able to credit Lanning...

    Nope, not possible at all, the coaches know nothing, they just pick their favorites and that is the way it is. Wonder if the coaches even go to practice, or if they even have practice, the coaches are so inept.

    What are some things that you would want out of CSP vs CFH?

    I would like us to win a few games, try to find some potential all conference players, ideally maybe a Player of the Year, maybe make it to the NCAA playoffs, make it past the first round of the conference tourney, win a few games at home so we can be proud of something, beat a rival once in a...

    Success story???? I will take a Jeff Woody success story everyday.....good character, appreciative and headed to med school. Was he the record setter on the football field the Wegher was? No. Was he successful as a respected and admired teammate? Yes. What kind of contribution have they made...

    Chris Babb still has a fighting chance to make Celtics

    Many times the "I Do " attitude or work ethic is more important than the natural talent without the strong work ethic. Chris Babb has the strong work ethic that will pay off in the long run.

    ***OFFICIAL BIG12 EXPANSION THREAD***

    After reading many of the posts, it seems to me that Texas is really the issue. They want everything their way, want to share very little and threaten leaving if they do not get their way. Maybe we shoud just let them leave. If we get rid of Texas, and agree to having an equitable format for...

    BoR laughs at ISU

    Has anyone from the BOR said anything? Are they even aware? Do they care? (No) We will have to go this alone until they find ways to create more negativity (and yes I am being negative and bitter) for ISU. I do not like where this is headed. I want to survive as a reputable academic...

    BoR laughs at ISU

    The BoR is going to do nothing to help ISU. Why would they start now? When have they willingly done anything to help? Cut funding, cut programs and now we have Bransted (Pomerantz commission) and his loyalty to Iowa to deal with. In the end the BoR will cut so much both athletically and...

    So what happens to ISU Wrestling

    And you think this is not exactly what Iowa and powers that be don't want. They want there to be only one major university in this state....and that is Iowa, the goal and hope of IOwa fans and the powers can turnof ISU into a lower tier Universiy, lower even than UNI. No competition either...

    Why haven't we heard from the BOR or Gartner?

    The Board of Regents have a anti-ISU slant and a strong Iowa one. They have no intention of doing anything to help ISU out in this situation. If we end up in a lower tier athletic conferance it will mean they can make more cuts to ISU both athletically and more importantly academically. How...

    Teenage Drinkers

    An interesting topic. I, like a previous poster was a teacher in the '70s when the legal age was 18. It seemed like a good idea, if your old enough to fight for your country, then you are old enough to drink. However, those 18 year-olds were bringing the alcohol to the high school parties...
