Besides CSU and NU which I suspect are on most people’s list I’m just curious who you are most looking forward to seeing us take on.

For me it’s

CSU
NU
OSU
KU
KSU
Utah

I think those teams will be the big tests and good markers of where we are. CSU shouldn’t be but for now it is. The others show us how far we have come and how far we will still have to go to win the confercne

One interesting take from this article is that Phil Loadholt only signed a one year deal. You don't see that often, sound like a guy who is betting on himself.

Greg Thomas out of south Florida. First visit to CU in the works....

It was not immediately clear whether the service, which will be available on ESPN+, Hulu and Max, will include linear sports properties such as NFL, NBA and Major League Baseball games. WBD is the only of the three companies that streams its linear properties direct-to-subscriber, having just months ago launched a Bleacher Report-branded sports tier on “Max” that includes all games carried by TNT and TBS.

Yours truly went to a college basketball game. Dayton v Duquene. Son in law had 4 suite tickets in the 'Flyer Club' for the game. Free food, drink, etc and wonderful seats. I made it until 2 min to go and had to leave. Had enough. Hoops just isnt my thing. Great rowdy crowd though. Packed arena. Dayton I guess is pretty good. Didnt even know the teams records until today lol.

Good for her. Lets see what they can do

#10 Iowa Stae visiting #3 Houston tonight @ 7 pm on ESPN.
Must watch for us Hoop fans.

I don't profess to know what kind of NIL the Cyclones have (and they do have nice facilities) but man, they have one helluva team coached by TJ Otzelberger.
TJ had a good run at South Dakota State (2 NCAA births in 3 years) then was sub 500 in 3 years at UNLV but Iowa State hired him anyway (he was an Iowa State AC prior). So far, in this his 3rd year at Iowa State he has amassed a 61-53 record and 2 trips to the Big Dance including a Sweet 16 appearance in 2021-22.
As a few of us have been saying, you just have to know what to look for in a HC if you choose to move in another direction.
Oh, and as side note he makes $1.5/year, which I am sure will be bumped up substantually, and soon I suspect.

Edit: I would like to add here that Iowa State has amazing fan and administration support. They have been ranked as high as #4 so yes, they are a better basketball school than we have ever been. But still...

Enjoy the game.

I thought this was announced a few months ago, it was due to work being done at Jerry's World

Juinor WR Tar'Varish Dawson Jr. is no longer listed on the roster. Sophomore Carter Stoutmire switched from CB to safety ⬇️

2024 Spring roster

I am looking to get my nephew a new vacuum cleaner for under $200 that works well on both carpet and wood floors. I have read some reviews but would like to know if any of you guys have any recommendations. Thx...

Somewhat surprised by this. I don’t think their financial struggles will be as painful as many assume. Too much money out there and too much willing leverage.

Still big move to go from SEC to BIG XII

#2 Purdue (somehow the #1 Tourney seed to date) goes down to the unranked Ohio State 73-69 as Interim HC Jake Diebler leads the Buckeyes to the big upset win. OSU fired HC Chris Holtman last Wednesday. And another one bites the dust.

Just tipped off. This should be a good way to wind up the weekend.
