    *** Official #9 IOWA STATE vs Oklahoma State Game(Day) Thread ***

    This team is mentally soft. TJ talks and talks about toughness but this team simply doesn’t have it. Simple example Houston we were super focused and had 12 turnovers and 15-17 from the line. Tonight completely unfocused and undisciplined which results in 18 turnovers and 12-20. Super...

    *** Official #8 IOWA STATE vs #5 Houston Game(Day) Thread ***

    6-22 from the field. Jefferson and Momcolovic are 1-12. Rest of team 50%. Jefferson has 4 points, 5 steals, 3 assists, 2 rebounds and a block so good overall stat line. Momcolovic has 1 rebound. He has to be better. If he can get hot and Cryer comes back to normal, we can compete in the 2nd half.

    How can a 5th year senior have absolutely no court awareness?

    Not sure why Jackson came back in over Chatfield. Immediately gives up an offensive rebound that leads to a 3. After the timeout, Chatfield needs back in.

    Officiating is fine. 4 self inflicted issues. 1.) Gilbert is killing us 2.) Bad offensive rebounding 3.) No made 3 pointers 4.) Missed free throws Down only 6 on the road with all that isn’t a bad spot.

    5 point play on Gilbert. Forced a bad shot and then no hustle on defense.

    COBOL Language

    This thread is bringing back memories. I did my MIS coursework in 96-97. I remember Ms. Tomlinson. I didn’t mind her or COBOL. I did some MicroFocus COBOL and then moved into Powerbuilder and then the .Net world. My 2 cents is if you understand the fundamentals of software development, you can...

    ISUCFVMB Involved in Bus Crash Outside Chattanooga

    Just reading through this thread, some of you clearly have issues. Regarding flying versus driving, we offered to fly our daughter home with us. She said no, she would rather take the bus. They are 18-22 year olds, while it’s a long bus ride and the accident was very unfortunate, cross...

    Yes, what seemed like a nice perk did turn into a mess with getting the planes there.

    They did fly to the Big 12 Championship game. I am sure Orlando would have been pricey.

    ISUCFVMB Involved in Bus Crash Outside Chattanooga

    My daughter is in the marching band. Scary for the kids on the bus that was in the accident, but all the kids are okay. It’s a long process to get 350+ kids to Orlando and back. It was 31 hours to get down there. They left yesterday morning before 8 am and will get back to Ames around 2:30 this...

    Chatfield is completely lost on D. He helps when he doesn’t need to, repeatedly losses his guy and is to slow to recover.

    ***2024 CFB Week 14 (Nov. 28-Nov. 30) Games Thread***

    Iowa does continue to get lucky year after year but I am starting to think it’s just a reflection of how bad the Big Ten continues to be. Nebraska is horrible. Iowa had 3 plays all game long, forced 2 fumbles and the Johnson play. It’s not really luck when the other team is just simply...

    I am not sure why Watson doesn’t get some minutes given how bad the defense is.
