    Sound off

    He tried moving to a bigger market several years ago, to Kansas City. He lasted a few months there before he realized he didn’t have what it takes, and came back to WHO with his tail between his legs. He’ll never be any more then a second rate journalist, and he knows it.

    Attending my first Cy Hawk game in Iowa City. What do i need to know/ be aware of?

    I’ve been to 3 of them, 2 wins and a loss. The 1st time was the Seneca come from behind win. i was threatened with getting tossed over the wall. I guess I was a little too exuberant with the come back.

    Season tickets or Mobile pass

    I’ve always had season tickets at the Cardinal level, but last year I tried the mobile pass. Seats were always on the upper level, but always between the 20 and 35 yard line In the 10th to 15th rows. I could never get the tickets to download to my wallet ( I never had that problem with the...

    Please, not #9!

    Fans are the only ones that care about rankings. The only one that matters is the final one after the dance.

    *** Official #22 Kansas vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    I generally won’t blame the officials for deciding a game one way or the other, but enough bad calls against only one of the teams, can greatly influence the outcome. I don’t know where the B12 dug up these clowns, but they should never be allowed to officiate a P5 contest again.

    Fox SF-Tampa Bay Game Switch

    Why would Fox switch from the SF-Tampa Bay game to Carolina-Seattle. It had to be a local decision, as my son in Lubbock Texas, was never switched. Could it be hoks have taken over the programming staff at Fox Des Moines

    How much will you watch CFB and how?

    I will not add to the B1G or SEC war chest by watching their games, or by subscribing to the streaming services that broadcast them. Big 12, Pac12 and ACC for me.

    WHO Sports Keith Murphy

    Just finished listening to WHO-13 sports, and Keith Murphy said the Cyclones ‘rose to #20’ in the AP poll, when in fact we are #19. I understand that he is a HOK homer, but come on. Probably the reason he’ll always be in the 2nd tier sports market.

    Is it time to move on from Manning??

    Our defense holds Iowa to 173 total yards of offense, and we lose. Are you kidding me. This is all on our offense/Manning. Hell yes he has to go.

    Is it time to move on from Manning??

    IMO, Manning needs to go, he is strictly old school. Our 1st offensive play of the game is always Breece Hall running between the tackles. It doesn’t take a genius defensive coordinator to see that. I can’t remember the last time I saw this staff run a RPO, a jet sweep, or a reverse to open a...
