In my opinion, CMC and staff's mission is not to place it's ultimate objective on winning.

We're not talking about WWI (17 million dead) or WWII (70 million dead), both wars in which the vast majorities of dead were non-combatants - old men, women and children.

To me, winning is fun. But, when CMC talks about working with young men, creating a culture in which his mission is to teach the qualities that will teach them the values and the techniques that will allow them to become better human beings, as a fan I'm all in.

So, what is the mission of The Iowa State University of Science and Technology? To me, a citizen who has lived as an aware American citizen of the 1960s, I say educate our young people, attempt to teach them awareness and let them assess what is important.

Coach Matt Campbell and the men he has assembled to work with him to further his mission to develop young men to become life successful (as the youngsters come to understand it for themselves) is, in my humble opinion, the epitome of an educational goal. Professor Campbell. Heh

Yep, CMC has to win games, just as an ISU educator must educate his pupils to a standard, otherwise both lose.

Me, I could care less if we never win a Natty. A Natty would be nice, but it doesn't matter.

TL;DR would rather feel good than be enshrined in history.

Give me a natty in FB MBB or WBB any day as it has not been done here yet. As much as I want all 3 coaches to stay here till they retire if they sustain the success they have had I'd take a Natty and they leave/retire after that over any other option you give me.
