    OSU postgame overreaction thread

    Like most, I had high hopes for this team, but they are proving themselves to be soft. They easily get pushed around and lately they commit so many unforced turnovers it is ridiculous. Last year's team was so much tougher. Looking back at our early season success, it now looks like a mirage. Who...

    NCAA Tourney Tickets

    I live in Chicago and went to the Cyclone games the last time they were in Milwaukee for the tournament. I bought tickets as soon as I could confirm when the Cyclones played. Like most locations, they run two sessions for the first day of games. If you buy now, you may not get the session the...

    CF POSTGAME: No. 8 Iowa State can’t hang with No. 16 Kansas

    One upside is, when the team goes into a funk like this, I don't waste my time watching them. Gives me a few hours back per week. When they decide to start playing again, I can resume.

    *** Official #2 IOWA STATE vs West Virginia Game(Day) Thread ***

    I was getting a flashback during the game to Otz's first year, with CuJo playing the role of Brockington. It seemed like if CuJo didn't score, no one else was a threat. That makes it too easy for opponents to shut us down and puts too much pressure on CuJo.

    This Team...

    Loving how much fun this team is to watch. I have to wonder how this affects future recruiting. You have to think it would give us an advantage.

    Charlotte Transfer Dishon Jackson commits to the Cyclones!

    I had the same thought. I'd be showing him Kalkbrenner film constantly and setting that as the goal.

    Rock to ‘23

    I read on 24/7 he plans to redshirt this year. Even so, it will make him better for 24.

    Two Things Can Be True...Yet Seem Contradictory

    Very true. In January, we were one of the best teams in the conference. In February, I don't see any way not to classify the Clones as easily the worst team in the conference. Same players. Hot streak in the beginning and as last year in the 2nd half of the season, everyone had us figured out...

    Question on Eli King

    I know it makes our roster heavy in the frontcourt but I am more concerned with getting a transfer to replace Osun than I am getting another SG.

    Is this recruiting class done?

    We could be thin at the 5 spot. We definitely lose Osun and possibly Jones. Looking for a transfer in would seem logical. Others to fill in spots who leave.

    UNLV Game Thoughts

    This was the best game I can remember for Joe Scates. He got open, was strong with the ball and made yards after the catch. Hopefully, he can continue this. Purdy having another weapon to trust would definitely make the offense more difficult to stop. Good game Joe!

    Now that I've calmed down...

    I've been trying to figure out for a while, why among our receivers can only Hutchinson seem to get separation? I keep hearing that Scates is fast, but he never seems to get open. Milton does occasionally get space, but rarely. Are our routes predictable? It seems like the defense knows where...

    Does Anyone Else Just Not Really Watch the Games Anymore?

    Cyclones BB games used to be what got me through the winters. Now I am greatfull when the games are not on TV so I am not even tempted to watch. It's a sad situation, and the winter has been looong.

    *** Official Iowa State Season Thread ***

    I was a teenager in the 70's and you could walk up to Hilton 15 minutes before a game, buy a ticket and sit almost anywhere you wanted. I'm afraid we are heading back to that. 3 of the last 4 years have been basketball which is hard to watch. I was in college when Johnny Orr came to town. He...

    *** Official IOWA STATE vs #8 West Virginia Game(Day) Thread ***

    I'm to the point with this team that I won't watch the game. Seeing a brand of basketball this bad is too hurtful and certainly not entertaining. I will record the game just in case they actually do something worth watching, but I think that is very unlikely.

    *** Official South Dakota State vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    On the positive side, I won't need to watch a lot of this teams games. There has to be a better way to spend my time than watching this garbage. If they keep playing like this, it may be a blessing if fans are not allowed in. There will be no one to boo the home team.

    PODCAST: On the transfers of Griffin, Lewis & Grill

    When 4 star recruits aren't panning out, you do have to look at what else is going on. Both Lewis and Griffin were highly regarded coming out of high school. We were all thrilled when they committed to ISU. If CSP can't develop players who come in with talent he is doomed at ISU. Unlikely to be...

    Caleb Grill Transferring

    You want Brock to transfer too? Campbell needs to keep all his players away from CSP.
