Yeah I just realized it was Gene. I have been doing insurance certs all day my brain is a lil mushy

By all means...take Chizik.  He loves the Midwest!

What good comes from the Fordham game?  

1) Fordham gets $500,000.

2) Fordham players get to ride on a flying machine

3) Fordham players get to experience their first Motel 6

4). Fordham players get to see where food comes from

The cultural benefits are enormous!

Oklahoma?  Meh...they are easy to beat.  What's the big problem with Oklahoma?

Nebraska would not be able to pry Matt Campbell from Iowa State but Paul Rhoads would be PROUD to take the job.  He's already proven he can win at Nebraska.  

Wonder what Gene Chizik is doing nowadays?

. If Mario's coaching isn't the issue then he and Frost are bumbling fools when it comes to player analysis and running the qb-room. 

Not a big surprise when you consider the best performances on Saturday came from two transfers (Tourre, Martin) who were developed by another team's coaching staff...

Right tackle is being shoved around...

1). Naked Cheerleaders

2). A halftIme show featuring Flo from Progressive Insurance being repeatedly kicked by the Mayhem guy.

3).  A fullback...

Yeah...jump out of the NCAA...lose your tax exempt status.  Joe Biden needs a new pair of shoes.  Lose Title 19.  Small colleges need more females.

Its all good.

BREAKING NEWS!!!

Cy the Cyclone issues the official response of Big 12 fans to conference realignment 

"who gives a f#&%?"

Thank you.

Another idea that occurs to me that would totally blow things up:

If I'm Iowa State, I'm taking my share of conference buyout money from the Gooners and Texass along with the media cash those two are gonna have to pony up if they leave and Im gonna start contracting every player worth a crap on either roster and telling them if they transfer to Iowa State, they will receive a guaranteed $25,000 cash NIL bonus just for showing up, joining the team and eating in the local pizza joint.  If I can convince my fellow Big 12 leftovers to do the same thing, both of those teams would end up cruising high schools to try to put a roster together...$150 million can buy a lot of players...or break an athletic budget if they want a bidding war.

I wondered when cy was gonna stop by, good luck to you guys wherever you land.

Thanks!

Kinda nice being the Premier Team of the league finally.  Thinking we should just hold together and bring in 4 malcontents.  That way we make the playoffs every year.  Almost like being Nebraska in the old Big 8.  That might be kinda cool...

Regardless of where Iowa State ends up ( Big 10.  Barry Alvarez told me so).  It'll be fun watching Texas get their asses handed to them at away games.  How many calls do you think Texas is going to get from the soon to be unemployed Big 12 officiating crews?  I will be surprised if they win a conference game this year.

i will miss seeing the Boomer Schooner tipping over and dumping Okies on their heads though...that was always amusing.

"You make tons of money Mr 5*?  This lowly 3* is taking out your knee..."

Tell me this ain't gonna happen

Well Mr Pollard was responsible for hiring two of the worst college football coaches ISU has ever had

 

33 Head Coaches

 

He hired the guy with the 33rd lowest winning percentage

AND the guy with the 27th lowest winning percentage

 

Mind you thats really stiff competition- since there are so many guys with career marks in the 30 percent range. Would seem you would have to work really hard to find someone worse than what theyve had before. But he did- bless his underachieving unself aware heart. 

One of those coaches took ISU to three bowl games, beat Nebraska in Lincoln for the first time since the Carter Administration and pretty much ushered in the college football playoffs by upsetting the #2 team in the nation...then he sucked. The other guy just sucked...

If you'd beaten them any more recently than we had I might take you seriously.

This is the year ISU and Nebraska take down the Fighting Ferentz.

Well ... Baylor has multiple 10-win seasons and a Heisman Trophy winner in their recent past.  Which is significantly more than can be said of the Cyclones. 

 

So you should probably say the Big XII doesn't need us because they already have Iowa State.

Quiet or we won't demolish and demoralize the Sqwaukeyes for you...

We don't want you back...we already have Baylor.

And from that point we can see all the way to the Colorado border since nothing stands in the way to obstruct the view...

When exactly are these "worst years" of which you speak in the past tense? 

Those would be the years I was playing.  Coincidence?  I think not!

Even in our worst years, we never tried to back out of a game with Oklahoma...or anyone for that matter.

After looking at Luke's high school passing stats, I'm pretty convinced that he wasn't the project...the coaching staff was.

I think Rambo wants to go where a QB can actually throw him the ball...
