Pretty awesome read. After reading that we should definitely appreciate the fact that he chose to come to ISU. I know we have a lot of attractive things to offer but it seems like Cambell is the type of guy that could have easily taken more "attractive" offers from more successful programs. .

I really, really, really like Campbell, but let's not pretend that Alabama was going to hire him if ISU didn't. The guy is a real up and comer, but he is also the youngest head coach at a power 5 school. Not a lot of successful program would take a chance on him.

Hopefully ISU and Campbell is a prefect match.

Alabama wouldn't have given Saben his first HC job either. It's kind of common sense he's young and starts somewhere, just like any other coach.

This article got me super hyped. I want to flash to 2 seasons from now and see where we are at because I feel like we will be arguing if we will win 8 or 9 games that season.
You don't want to flash ahead. Enjoy the process.

Is Bobby LaGesse leaving the Ames Trib? Have I been living under a rock?
Yes, he will be a part of a Big 10 website thingy. Certainly more lucrative but he will feel like stabbing himself in the eyes every day.

Easily the best article I've read by Bobby.

CMC sounds like the type of person that, if anyone could do it, he could.

I agree If Matt Campbell cant turn us into a Earle Bruce 8 wins a season program NO Body Can.............

btw I have been a part of this train wreck football program since 1962

I was under the impression that the Landof10 thing was in addition to his Trib duties. Is that not the case?
