August 25, 20187 yr The drag sucks now, Austin pizza is top tier on the drag. The other new food joints are wannabe hipster garbage. I used to love Moe's but they got their liquor license pulled, essentially a kill shot.

He could be our Bill Snyder though, you're right. I just don't think he wants that. I like Campbell a lot and hope he stays at Iowa State. Like the fanbase and it's good for the conference if he can at least make them a kstate-like player, relevant nationally and in b12 hunt every few years. Unfortunately the Snyders, Petersens, and Pattersons of the world are quite few and far between (and even Petersen was eventually wooed away, but waited much longer than expected and until Harsin was ready to take over). Time will tell if he's that type or not. If not, hopefully you at least get the Petersen treatment where he'll make you relevant and leave you with a good succession plan.

September 2, 20187 yr Author Game was in delay, now cancelled. Are they going to play tomorrow or just scrap it?
September 2, 20187 yr Doubt it would be tomorrow. Probably during one of the bye weeks if it can be worked out. When you need 6 wins you don't let the fcs school run off.
September 2, 20187 yr The official Texas Media Guide lists DJ Durken as the ISU coach. I hope bulletin board material is not effective in motivating coaches. Edited September 2, 20187 yr by ImissWallyPryor
September 7, 20187 yr Iowa State has a massive student enrollment for a state that size, in population... The Cyclones need to stay aligned in a P5 conference, #'NadoBirds, great folk & ISU fans...
September 7, 20187 yr We're fine. An AAU school with 35k student body, that's largest in its state and draws 60K for football and 14k for basketball will not be left out. In the era of cord cutting, where actual interest in a program matters, were more valuable than at least 1/3rd of current P5 schools.

Agreed, I would argue that Iowa State is at least a top 50 program, after about 35ish flagship schools & maybe 3 or 4 private schools...

And he really didn't get much help from our OL. I presume he'll land closer to home (from Athens, GA suburbs iirc). The real ISU related QB story is Brock Purdy's little younger brother in Gilbert AZ (Perry HS). If he's better than Brock as advertised there should be some heavy-hitters interested. And he goes by Chubba. I have no idea what his given name is?...hope it's not Chubba.

October 31, 20187 yr 14 minutes ago, Go Pokes said: So what is Kempt going to do? Keep going to grad school, I guess. Dude's essentially a GA now and I don't think he really cares if he ever plays again. Kind of hard to get a read on Kyle. He looks like he's on quaaludes most of the time.

I figured he was grad transferring to Alabama next year to be their starter and win the NC and Heisman.

November 1, 20187 yr Their Defensive Coordinator has been getting some mentions in the @smartfootball or other online accounts, and he could be the next million dollar DC.
November 28, 20187 yr So, why with Riley? I understand winning is good but it seems to me that Rhule did more with a lot less.

I’m going to guess that Murray’s performance has surprised a lot of people. Physically the guy doesn’t impress anyone. Sure he can run, but that sure didn’t seem to help him while at aggy. Not to mention OU is toast without him. So maybe his performance under Riley while following Mayfield had a lot to do with it?

November 29, 20187 yr That should have been Campbell's by himself. I get why they tossed Riley in, but still, more legit for Matt to have won it alone.

OU spreads it out so much that it's a lot easier for the Ewok to find passing lanes as well as running lanes. He'd be a lot less effective trapped in the pocket of a conventional offense.

Always been a DU fan though, one of my HS buddies played DE there. I was at that game, sitting a few rows behind the Drake bench. Miserable game. Then somehow in our final game that year we turned around and beat a #7 Okie State team led by Thurman Thomas in one of the coldest and windiest games I've ever attended.

December 2, 20187 yr just the kind of team mike chokes to hopefully there are a lot of ISU fans there because there will be a lot of cult of mike fans there (probably in Tech gear)
December 20, 20187 yr 1 hour ago, TexasMan said: That photoshop is trrrrble, they look like bobbleheads. But damn, top 35 class has to be ISUs best in 40 years (Earle Bruce). And, iirc Campbell's first class was ISU's best in the last 40 years. Dude can do it all.
December 20, 20187 yr I’ll be at the Alamo Bowl rooting for ISU, because just like aggy “Big XII, Big XII, Big XII”!!!!!I live in the SA area and I’ve been to the last 6-7 in a row. Most of them have been really good bowl games, especially when the cockroaches were there.I like the Pirate, but have to root for the Cyclones on this one.
December 20, 20187 yr I did recently read where if WSU wins the Alamo Bowl, it will complete their first ever 11 win season - so they have that going for them (and “The Pirate”).
