    My Player Powering Rating Index

    Omaha’s 2 buckets last night were really good low post moves. The head fake then dunk and a nifty step through from the baseline for a layup. I think Omaha is struggling with the short shifts that TJ has been using with his bigs so far. He and Watson get frequent 2-3 minute runs. For a guy used...

    Updated: Milan Momcilovic commits to ISU

    My best friend growing up went to Marquette and I’m friends with all his college buddies. I’m on their MU basketball thread throughout every season. They all respect Iowa State’s program and how well we have recruited Wisconsin. Most are from the Chicago burbs but the ones from Wisconsin know...

    Meet at Lucky Horse before the Sisters at Drake on Sunday?

    Would be fun to meet some of you bastards. I’ll bring name tags. Put your cyfan handle on your chest and let’s put some faces to names. Will be fun to watch Ariana Jackson after following her at Roosevelt the last 4 years.

    Cryptocurrency

    I read that Mark Cuban got scammed for a million bucks, or something like that, worth of crypto a few weeks ago. It seems like some amount of fraud here and there doesn’t slow it at all. And a major blow up every couple years is just growing pains. I think it’s a juiced financial market with...

    COLUMN: A massive analysis on the MBB roster following opener

    I’ve been watching Cyclone basketball since Orr started and I don’t remember a team with this kind of length and athleticism. Not close. That starting lineup was long and Milan moves better than I expected. Then they can bring in two more long athletic defenders in Omaha and Watson, and a hockey...

    *** Official Green Bay vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    I hope a solid rotation of 8-9 guys develops early in the season. Go deeper than that when there’s foul trouble or when you need a specialty. For instance, I think Big Rob will be limited in a lot of games because we can put more capable scorers on the floor. Then there will be games like Kansas...

    ***2023 Iowa High School Football Playoffs***

    Lol. You added a few towns there. Maybe with the addition of the kids from TYSRFV they will win next year.

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

    Imagine the respect when Purdy walked into the football facility this week. Will be similar when Breece shows up. It’s great for the program. Highly motivating for the players and a great sell for any recruits who might be there.

    NFL: ***2023 San Francisco 49ers***

    This. If Shanahan thought Darnold was a better option he would have started him today with Purdy in concussion protocol all week. Hell, Shanahan announced early in the week that Purdy would start if he cleared protocol even if he didn’t practice all week.

    Um, go Kansas?

    I’ve really enjoyed Pete Mundo’s podcasts the last few years. But I didn’t know until this thread that he’s 16. He’s got a booming radio voice that makes him sound like he’s 40 then I saw these picks and lmao.

    Tracking games played by the true freshmen

    Heacock and his secondary coach have played a ton of young guys throughout the season. Sometimes I’ve wondered if it has been a bit too much. Case in point yesterday was Baylor’s long TD pass on 4th and 4 that put them back in the game. They ran a bunch formation to the left and the Clones...

    ***2023-24 College Football Thread***

    Ah, I missed the sarcasm. My bad. Every year half your fanbase thinks the Hawks are playoff contenders after stringing together wins over Purdue, Minnesota and Illinois by scores like 10-7 and 14-10.

    ***2023-24 College Football Thread***

    Iowa was never in the playoff race. Posts like this from Hawk fans just crack me up. Your team shouldn’t sniff the top 25 given their performance at Penn St and their pathetic schedule.

    ***2023 Iowa High School Football Playoffs***

    Judging by the sound it seems like the officials were influenced by the crowd yelling “he was out.” At full speed that sure looked like a catch inbounds.

    Williams & Blum: Big 12 bye week talk, hoops vs. Creighton

    Love your podcasts Chris and grateful to you and Blum going twice a week. I try to walk an hour everyday and your pods fill two of them nicely.
