Where do you think we would be as a program today without Heacock? And this is NOT a bash Campbell thread BTW. Just interested to know your thoughts. Excellent assistant coaches are underrated IMO, but would we have had the success in the last 8 years without Heacock?

In the same regard, where would Bill Belichick be without Tom Brady? Where would Matt Campbell be without Purdy?

Just wanna know everyone's opinion...

Listening to Big 12 radio today said that one of our missed field goals was actually good. Thought the refs should be punished for missing the call and saying that it was not a reviewable call. Have not heard this anywhere. Is this true and I listened to the game?

A friend was at a function with the President and husband last night . Sounds like Iowa State disputed the missed field goal. I don’t know what that means or what good it does, but there you go.

Most of you are probably aware Office Kevin Cram was killed in the line of duty last Wednesday, September 13. His funeral was this morning.

While it pales to the times his family, friends, and fellow officers have faced, are facing, and will be facing, this has been a tough, emotional week for the greater Algona community. Officer Kevin Cram, 55-18, leaves his wife and 3 young children. As you say prayer or have thoughts yo consider, say the name Kevin Cram.

And if you have never heard a police or fire fighter final call, Google his final call. It is indeed sobering.

4 nice seats behind ISU bench. $200 for all 4

Not sure if they would go after Campbell again...but they will likely be looking for a coach.

I've got a grass pass, but am worried about them not being open, so I'm looking for a reasonable priced paved parking pass.

I can only imagine how CMC would have crashed and burned in the NFL if he had been hired as HC.

His stubbornness would have gotten him run from the league early on.

Hopefully, he gets his sh*t together, as I like him for our head coach, but he is on an intense losing streak.

I got behind in reading the message board so I have been trying to catch-up. Many years ago I used an extension that allowed me to hover or click on a special icon next to a link and the content would open in a popup window or a split window next to the base window. The hover or click operation could be customized as could the popup or split window scheme. I don't remember the name of that extension, but there were others similar to it. Those extensions were for a browser like Internet Explorer, Netscape or an early Firefox that I was likely using at the time. I've been a Chrome user for a very long time, so that tells me it may have been 10 to 20 years ago since I used it.

Fast forward to today. I go looking for that type of extension and have given up a few times when I found nothing. This time I turned to Google Bard to help me find what I'm looking for. After some back and forth with Bard, I got a number of suggestions, many of which are no longer in the Chrome Web Store. I let Bard know and they narrowed the suggestions down to three.

1. Hover by Eiiib Technologies: 4.9 stars (out of 5)
2. Hoverify by UnveelWorks: 4.7 stars (out of 5)
3. Link Preview by Link Preview Team: 4.3 stars (out of 5)

Hover was pretty good, although not as customizable as what I had used before. Link Preview looked the same but with some image problems indicative of an extension that is no longer supporter or maybe was replaced by Hover. Hoverify was intriguing. I don't know if it helps speed message board reading, but it can do a detailed analysis of website structure and content that may come in handy some day. But not today. Today Hover is the one that I installed an started using.

I had three pages of unread messages that I sped through and have a little more than a half page of links to go. For those of you that would like to experiment with a more efficient way to read the board try the Hover extension for Chrome.

NFL - who saw Patriots on their FG block? The defense had a guy running in from the boundary and at the snap he veered into the backfield and easily blocked.

NFL - Miami and Tua... Announcers raved about Miami's basic route tree - wheel, slant and flat - saying they've run it for a while and nobody has defended it well.

XM B12 guys today say we canNOT fire CMC because we won't find anyone else better but they DID all agree on firing the play caller.

Offered in-state OL continues to hear from Cyclones' staff

ISU’s run game today or ISU’s 3 point shooting in the last NCAA tourney game?

Iowa State Media Relations

AMES, Iowa – Iowa State sophomore punter Tyler Perkins has been recognized as the Ray Guy Award Punter of the Week after his efforts in the Ohio game.

Against the Bobcats, Perkins punted five times and dropped four of the kicks inside the 20-yard line. Two of the punts were at least 50 yards and he averaged 43.8 yards per attempt.

The Norwalk, Ohio, native has had an outstanding start to his second season, improving his punting average from 42.2 yards as a freshman to 50.5 yards this season. His net punting average is 45.5 yards and 10 of his 19 punts have been at least 50 yards, one more than his freshman season. Nine of his punts have pinned opponents inside the 20.

His 50.5 punt average ranks second nationally and he owns one of three 70-yard punts nationally this season.

Perkins and the Cyclones host Oklahoma State on Saturday at 3 p.m. on FS1.

Soon

but I’ll bet there were more than 5-6 players that were sick. 5-6 couldn’t go, On the radio, Harklau said Becht was hanging onto a fence puking at halftime.

Just need a cheap ticket to get in the gate. Can even be a mobile ticket.

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.

Looking at all the 2-0 teams in the NFL and only the 49ers and Dolphins are 2-0 on the road. Ravens, Cowboys, Eagles, Commanders, Buc are all 1 road 1 home win. And the Falcons are 2 home 0 road wins! Great start to year for the 49ers.

...Hunter Dekkers, Jirehl Brock, Deylin Hasert, Jake Remsberg, Steve Klotz, Jalen Noel, and DeShawn Hanika have in common?

On April 20th or so those 5 were expected to be starters for ISU on offense and on September 16 none of them were available for the game versus Ohio.

Becht, the backup QB (projected), spent half time puking over a chain link fence according to another site. Others didn't play or had snaps significantly reduced. And norovirus, not food poisoning, was the cause.

Did we sell Ruth? Kill a goat? Some curse? Because we haven't won anything for a long, long, long, long, ... long time. Do we need to sacrifice a live chicken to Jobou? Gads.

What is more expensive to the program, buying wins, or crushing the program by losing to low level teams. I think we clearly just showed that not buying wins will cost the program far more. Literally, I think this loss may have set the program back to square 1 in the CMC era. Extremely costly.
