    Iowa State going back to traditional defense next season?

    Seems like a good way to give up QB sneaks for 5 yards every play.

    Tamin Lipsey Commits

    He is a D1 Athlete. We are spoiled right now with Brockington and Hunter, who have elite athleticism. Eli King is a more explosive athlete than Tamin. Both are good athletes and good basketball players though that we should be excited about. People might not have been blown away by Monte Morris'...

    Tamin Lipsey Commits

    I have watched a decent amount of Lipsey highlights prior to last night’s game and I am happy he will be a Cyclone. I saw him limping out there a bit last night. Did not look great last night overall. I agree in general with the premise that D1 talent should stand out (even in comparison to...

    *** Official #19 IOWA STATE vs Creighton Game(Day) Thread ***

    The Creighton crowd was pretty fired up when they were able to make some plays against us. And fairly hostile when some calls did not go their way. I thought it might have subconsciously effected refs a couple times. Crowd contributed to Creighton’s run late in the first and the pressure on...

    *** Official #19 IOWA STATE vs Creighton Game(Day) Thread ***

    Does anyone know how to watch a replay of the Creighton vs ISU game? www.foxsports.com/replays is not working. I was at the game and would love to catch a replay of the TV broadcast.

    Friday OT #1 - Some People Call Me Maurice

    I was coerced into singing Don’t stop believing on a bus for a work outing once. On the way back after numerous drinks. It basically went like this:

    ESPN non-coverage is atrocious

    Not directing this at anyone: I can understand if a site like ESPN is not giving the content you want, that you stop going to it, and even are critical of it. I scratch my head when I see anyone that seems to be looking for some kind of slight against our programs or any excuse to be angry and...

    ESPN non-coverage is atrocious

    ESPN is a national company. They will post stories they think will get clicks. Kansas losing is more interesting than Memphis. Iona, with a brand like Rick Pitino and the rareness of a team of that caliber beating a top ten team, is more notable. Yes, we care about beating a top 10 team and it...

    CBS Sports streaming is trash

    CBS Sports streaming is trash

    Yeah, I guess that shows us that streaming is still relatively young and there is plenty of growth and potential to improve. These companies need to get it together. Will probably take a couple more years.

    CBS Sports streaming is trash

    I was frustrated with CBS Sports for sure yesterday. I have Cox Cable and do get the CBS Sports channel. When Utah and San Diego St. went to OT, said no big deal, I will just stream it on my CBS Sports app on my Roku. Except when I pulled up the app and clicked on the ISU game, it showed the...

    The Wheel of Time

    A few smaller spoilers included: Think a more modern Lord of the rings. Swords, magic, etc. Several teenagers who are all friends in a small farming village. A strange woman is in town. Some evil orc-like creatures (trollocs) show up and attack the 3 boys homes. The woman tells the 3 boys the...

    Poll: All-Time RB

    A few thoughts: It is unfair to compare Hall to the other 2 yet due to one less season. Early on seeing Breece, I remember noting, this guy might already be better than David Montgomery, and that is saying something. I definitely felt that way last season. To me, the top end speed, the way he...

    Xavier Townsend Commits!

    Agreed, this kid is dynamic. Reminds me of Percy Harvin. Feels like the varsity playing against the JV on his Hudl film. Great feet. Great route running. Great speed. Great balance. Strength, hands, start/stop, vision. http://www.hudl.com/video/3/11151062/5fd29b4a066c020fecb2a3e0

    ESPN+ on T Hunter at Iverson Classic

    Dame Lillard is 6’2”. Kemba Walker is 6’0”. Kyrie Irving is 6’2”. Guys like Devonte Graham and Jevon Carter are 6’1”. Aaron Holliday is 6’0”. Chris Paul is 6’0”. Jalen Brunson is 6’1”. Tyus Jones is 6’0”. Monte is 6’2. Cameron Payne is 6’1”. Trae Young is 6’1”. Plenty of others. Guys like...

    Izaiah Brockington commits

    I think he was stating that he believes Izaiah Brockington is not an upgrade from Rasir Bolton. So speaking from ISU's perspective, not the player's perspective. If IB is as good as RB, but fits the team/culture better, we have a nice win here.

    Izaiah Brockington commits

    Rasir Bolton’s stat line was good enough for 3rd team all big 12. His stats are not why he is not back. If we get similar production from Izaiah Brockington we should be thrilled. Yes, it would be amazing if he improves as a shooter in the offseason. But he does everything else pretty well.

    [Added Jason Essex] 2022 Class Breakdown

    As a premium subscriber, I can tell you that a decent chunk of info shared would be stuff CW would probably not share in articles or on a free board. More sensitive stuff. There is still risk even putting it there. I see the premium side as something separate and additional rather than...
