I agree. I was trying to say something like this. Iowa State is finally dropping some but it’s really only after the blowouts have started. It’s hard to drop if you’re playing all highly ranked teams.

Okay, name the last time a P5 program hired a 64 year old. TT hired Mark Adams two years ago when Beard left them in the lurch and he got promoted from within to try and maintain consistency in the program. An external hire, taking over a program that will be gutted after this year by a 64 year...

In the context of being hired as a college basketball head coach taking over a complete rebuild, yes, I think so.

For the Big 12 this year I think it's a little overrated, simply because they have good noncon wins, but mostly as a conference they have avoided bad noncon losses. Not getting blown out also helps. The Big 12 has 1 Q4 loss and 1 Q3 loss between all 10 teams all season. That has lead itself to...

ISU could not be limping into the postseason any harder. IMO they don't win another game but admittedly I thought that about this point last year. I always say just making the tournament makes any season a success, and any additional goals you hit are just icing on the cake. Man this year is...

You can get Men's tourney tickets for 37 bucks? that's a steal.

I coach Little League (This year I'll have 10 year olds) and last year every kid on my team pitched at least 1 inning except one and he just didn't want to do it. I'm not going to make anybody do it but I'll tell them if they work on it they'll get put in the game. The team who won the regular...

As somebody who lives in the DSM metro, this is absolutely mind blowing to me. That said, I think Ames even had a hard time fielding a team a few years ago.

I think he’s had consistently good teams with the exception of 2018 since 2014. IMO that’s when he hit his stride.

Who will pay him more? He's making almost double what Brey did at ND.

Correct, it's much more empty. Their stadium only seats 9,100 fans and the last few games had 6,216 tickets sold, 4,502 tickets sold, 6,105 tickets sold, and 6,151 tickets sold. They averaged 7,200 fans per game last year.

Then he wouldn't go to ND. Their fan support sucks. They are also really bad. Like one of the worst P5 teams bad, and their top 5 players are all seniors, and 5th year COVID guys as well with 1 exception. So basically you're returning nothing from an already terrible roster. I mean this with...

Fran crossed half court. I honestly can't think of a time I've seen that.

I'm an ISU fan who has spent plenty of time making fun of how much Connor plays, but he's having a good season. He deserves the minutes he's getting this year.

They weren't playing that well before ISU beat them. But ISU has 3 wins ever in program history against a #1 team, the game was extremely exciting, and man I really enjoyed it. Ultimately I think UNC is probably a top 30 team, not a #1 team, so it'll still be a nice Q1 win at the end of the...

I think 3-3 would be a huge disappointment. They'll be favored in 5 of them pretty heavily. I think 4-2 should be the bare minimum expectation.

Something is up with TCU and I don't know what. They were down 20 points to Ark Pine Bluff and had to have a crazy comeback to win by 1 point. Now they lost to NW St. I thought they'd be pretty good this year, a very old team, etc. They aren't playing well that's for sure. Cal sucks. 0-3...

I don't know if they are better but they are certainly bigger and faster.

I've been kind of wondering about how much the defense has impacting the scoring offense so I looked it up quick. Here are the scoring drives by Iowa starting beyond the 50 yard line: Nevada: 10 play, 69 yard drive, FG 1 play, 55 yard run, TD Rutgers: 12 play, 87 yard drive, FG 9 play, 75 yard...

Followed the Kings fairly closely when Haliburton was there. The team, organization, etc. is just bad. The best thing for Keegan is to get traded in 2 years to a better team for more draft picks so the Kings can do all of this again.
