    Homefield

    So this is cool... @JStanz51 advertised this site on one of the podcasts so I went to check them out. https://www.homefieldapparel.com/collections/vintage-iowa-state-store The gear is pretty cool, but even better, they don't have toe apparel on their site (yet). Kind of cool that ISU got on...

    Non-Conference Schedules by Conference

    I feel like B12 schools, commissioner, coaches, AD's should be pushing the quality of the B12 scheduling more than they do... not only do we play 9 conference games (unlike ACC, SEC) we also schedule as many or more P5 opponents in our non-conf than others. Just to catch up to our schedule...

    QB Completion Percentage

    Thought this was interesting... QB's with the best completion percentage in Iowa State history (min 100 attempts) top four are all Matt Campbell guys: Kyle Kempt 66.7% Brock Purdy 66.4% Zeb Noland 60.2% Jacob Park 60.2% No other QB in ISU history has broken 60% for their career (min 100...

    Biggest weight changes

    this was an interesting read... Petersen/Peterson should be a fun pair of DE’s to watch over the next few seasons. https://247sports.com/college/iowa-state/LongFormArticle/Iowa-State-football-biggest-gains-loses-body-transformations-2019-season-132619192/

    Brian Peavy to Arizona

    Looks like Brian Peavy will get a chance in Arizona... but it appears to be a mini camp invite only. So, up hill battle to make it to the preseason. Obviously, hoping he gets a chance, either in Arizona or somewhere else. If he could get on a preseason roster I think he will at least make a...

    McDonald to LB?

    Not sure if this was already discussed somewhere on here... but thought this comment from Campbell was interesting: "A guy like Will McDonald, like where does he play? Is he a defensive lineman? Can he play an outside ‘backer for us?” Campbell said. “He’s a guy positionally that’s going to be...

    Matt Campbell's last Toledo Class Re-Ranked 12th by The Athletic

    Interesting read from The Athletic... it looks back at the 2015 class and re-ranks based on the performance of the players (and team) over the last 4 seasons. This was the last recruiting class Matt Campbell had at Toledo and that class was bumped up to 12th (from the 84th place ranking it had...

    Assistant Football Coaching Salaries

    With the $1M raise for the assistant coaches, ISU moves from near the bottom of the P5 to around the middle of the pack. Now this is before factoring in raises for assistants at other schools so not 100% fair but at least it should give an idea of where ISU ranks. Finally, this only has 51 P5...

    Jack Trice's Number

    I was trying to find Jack Trice's number... I don't think they had them on their jersey's when he played.. But was hoping to confirm that this article is correct... does anyone know if Jack Trice's number was 37? It looks like someone uncovered the Iowa State vs. Simpson program from 1923...

    Never really lost a ball game that way bill? How about 2004?

    Never lost a game like that before? I guess every game is different... but the ISU win in 2004 was very similar. KSU took a 23-9 lead by going on long TD drive that ended at the beginning of the 4th qtr. With about 14 mins left, it appeared that TD would be enough to win the game.. then ISU...

    ...and here come the national media.... let's win in the spotlight!

    Great articles on ISU on ESPN and the Athletic: https://theathletic.com/653336/2018/11/14/iowa-state-football-big-12-texas-game-coach-matt-campbell/?fbclid=IwAR1koa-SBqF1GVqay1MqrngtKNxqdreexkitUlyXYNQCD7O_z1DBJQ-J_Qs...

    Sugar Bowl

    So, still a lot of football to play... but for fun, here is a scenario: ISU wins out. OU wins out AND, ND, Mich, and Georgia all lose. OU is in the top 4 of the CFP going into the B12 championship game. Two potential outcomes: 1) ISU wins B12 title game, goes to Sugar Bowl. 2) OU wins B12...

    Kamilo Tongamoa

    Has anyone heard anything about Kamilo Tongamoa? Thought we would see him at least contribute this year... Don't think I have seen him on the field yet. I know he was suspended for game 1 (SDSU). But have not seen him on the depth chart in recent weeks. The def line is doing well without him...

    10 Wins...

    So, I think there are two ways canceling SDSU could be really brutal.. I don’t think either are very likely... but I think the one that’s more likely no one is talking about. Scenario 1: Needed to get to 6 wins... I think this is unlikely, but is the one everyone is talking about. Not...

    Feldman: 40 coaches on the rise....

    https://theathletic.com/493761/2018/08/29/feldman-40-coaches-on-the-rise-entering-the-2018-college-football-season/ Predictably Matt Campbell is mentioned in the article. But where he was mentioned was refreshing from an ISU fan perspective. The article focused on coaches that would “be in...

    My thoughts on Kempt

    Am I the only one who thinks Kempt is a better option at QB than Park? I wish Park the best and if he wins the job next year great. But I think Kempt will be really hard to replace. I get that Park has more arm talent... but timing I believe is more important. Kempt has been reading...

    Big 12 Network

    To me, the biggest question for the B12 is how to grow revenue. At some point the Big 12 will most likely need to expand to remain a part of the Power 5. But I don’t see any of the available candidates adding significantly to the B12 revenues. To me, the Big 12 needs to beat out either the...
