Looks like many Dems want him gone. Washington Post poll shows he is now trailing Trump by 9 Points! I know it is an outlier, and polls should be taken with a grain of salt, but in 2016 and 2020 Trump was NEVER ahead. So they are trying to figure out how to dump this guy, and where the heck is the bench? Trump by 9 points?

Not particularly about the OU game. As a long time fan I certainly have seen it before and Our youth is leaving us susceptible to this type of game.

My concern is the NIL impact on CFB and ISU in particular. I have seen a lot of ISU football over the years with memories starting in the 50's. I remember my dad talking about games and reading as a young lady in the Register about Bill Weeks and Jim Doran, following Doran's career with the Lions. I remember when Jim Myers got us over .500 when I was 12. I saw games of the Dirty 30 and the equally successful 1960 team.

Over those years we have struggled to compete with facilities, commitment, and finances. Generally, it is a story of us falling behind, pushing to get to average, then falling back again.

The recent changes and the potential of CyTown is the first time I felt we had a chance to hang with the trends. What Jamie has accomplished is a freaking minor miracle. Then NIL changed the dynamic and, presto, we are behind the 8-ball once again. Pay-to-Play is something we cannot compete with. We cannot buy an experienced offensive line. We cannot buy linebackers. We cannot buy a rush end.

And my real fear is we will not be able to keep the young talent that is so evident but will be a prime target for programs that CAN afford it. And that breaks my heart. It destroys College football at its core. And losing OU and UT doesn't solve the issue.

The Texas schools all have money for NIL. PRIME is coming, buying what he needs. BYU and UU will always be older than everyone and have money. Kansas has money, if they decide to spend it on football. UCF comes from the "if you aren't cheating, you aren't trying" part of the country. KState has all the money they need for football, seemingly. It is not going to get easier. Once again, we get level and the money changes the paradigm.

How can we become truly viable in the NIL world? The dollars it will take is so far beyond what our current capability is. But, worse, for me anyway. It is just killing my interest in college sports. 🙃 and if too many are like me, the golden goose may be slain. What a loss that would be.

Iowa State a finalist for 2024 Minnesota ATH with visit on tap

Iowa State's head coach will be in front of the media at around 12:15 this afternoon inside the Stark Performance Center. I'll be on hand posting live highlights in the thread below.

Rumors are Remsberg is "dinged up."

The Cyclones & Sooners kick off a little after 6 pm this evening in Norman. The game will be carried on FS1. I’ll have the periodic updates for you in the thread below.

Is everyone sure that the position is settled?

SIAP.

Linebacker from Williamsburg scored four touchdowns against South Tama.....before Williamsburg had run a single play.

He returned a punt for a TD. Then he had a pick six. Then he had another pick six. Then he had another punt return for a TD. It was 27-0 before the offense took the field.

Feed us your knowledge. How do you see each weight class panning out?

Front row of the upper section in sect 22.
$300/pair OBO.

Hey, you can drink your Cyclone worries away here....

Thank you to everyone who participated last week. The final score was Oklahoma 50, Iowa State 20 (Oklahoma by 30 and 70 total points). Iowa State passed for 202 yards.

Here are the winners:
@cyclone59 had Oklahoma by 30 with 40 total points and 188 passing yards for ISU - gets three months added onto the term of their subscription.
@FarmerCy had Oklahoma by 31 with 53 total points and 233 passing yards for ISU - gets two months added onto the term of their subscription.
@MoValleyClone had Oklahoma by 31 with 51 total points and 287 yards passing for ISU - gets one month added onto the term of their subscription.

TE Deshawn Hanika's charges are dropped. He is still ineligible however, due to NCAA rule. Get this guy back on the field. Can you imagine how good we could have been if we had the guys who got booted? My only two reservations now are Dekker and Lee. Rocco is good and so is Kohl, but Dekker did bring game experience. Lee I can do without - betting on us to lose in a game where he made ONE tackle?

2 tickets for sale, Section 35, Row 20. Lower level, 40 yard line. $50 per ticket.

Also one ticket in Sukup Club, Section 21, Row 5. $120.00

My son and I are due for an upgrade but see they are have overheating issues due to certain apps. Instagram was mentioned. Guess it doesn't hurt the phone but I think I'll let them get that little bug fixed first. Damn I wanted to get the NFL ticket that comes with a new I15 upgrade. Anyone here got the new 15 yet? I did have to ask my Verizon girl if they had any new HOT deals.

Follow the men's and women's golf stats here:

Fighting Irish Classic - Men

Windy City Collegiate Classic - Women

The slide was the smart football play. But my Yahoo Sports app shows the Chiefs were a 7.5 favorite. THIS is why I don't bet on sports.

I don’t believe this has been posted yet, our coach is now Mr. Hot Seat to rival fans. I love the guy, but he is showing some real chinks in his armor (similar to the 2021 defensive comments in the media).
