Good luck!

Coleman Hawkins doesn’t think so. He said as much from his home in California. From the KC Star.

He committed to the Wildcats in June, and the value of his lucrative NIL deal was shared openly minutes afterward.

“At the time, Hawkins said he could handle the publicity. Opposing fans loved to heckle him when he was in the Big Ten, and he often used their words as fuel during games.

But it was difficult for him to do the same in Manhattan. Turns out, hearing people say “he’s not worth that” wasn’t easy for him to deal with.”

This guy is well into his 20s, but younger players are going to have to face this reality too as they basically become college pros. Making more than their parents will ever earn and from a school where the kids they go to class with are going into debt while living on Ramen noodles.

One of the most impressive displays by the Iowa State men's basketball team I've ever witnessed in person. Built up all week by the national media as the far superior team, UCLA proceeds to get dismantled by the Cyclones.

Just like Fran, can’t get to the Sweet 16.

Trump has instructed all federal agencies to lay off all probationary employees, which is roughly 200,000 employees. People that begin working for the federal government are always started as probationary employees for the first 2 years. They are not covered by the Unions until they complete their probation. So I believe they can be laid off without the permission of the unions. Welcome to the real world. I have worked at companies they do the exact same thing, including the U of I. Very similar to real world companies that will keep contractors on staff, so that the first people let go during bad times are the contractors, then they move on to probationary employees, and then to employees with the least time with the company. Is it unfortunate for these employees, yes, but this is no different than the real world.

Can’t make this stuff up.

Meetings all day and dinner last night. Lipsey looked to favor the leg somewhat.

Any thoughts on his degree of health. I see he played 24 minutes and Special K played 18.

TIA.

concern me a little. I was initially worried about Carolina's talent, and found myself feeling better when Ole Miss took control of the game early. I then started to think about both Beard and Adams's Tech teams and how we seemed to struggle with them more than anyone else in the Big XII. As the game progressed, I found myself rooting for Carolina and overtimes down the stretch of the game.

I do think we have both better coaching and players, but Beard and Adams will again present a major challenge for us tomorrow night. Go Cyclones!

PHILADELPHIA – Jacob Frost finished his NCAA Championships debut in seventh place Saturday morning inside Wells Fargo Arena. Frost, the 9-seed, capped an impressive tournament with a 17-3 major decision over Minnesota’s No. 6 Vance VomBaur in the medal rounds.

The Cyclone’s seventh-place finish came in a loaded 141-pound bracket which included seven returning All-Americans and two national champions.

Frost got to his offense from the jump in his tilt against VomBaur, registering the first takedown of the match with 1:25 remaining in the first period. He would add two more takedowns in the second period before a fourth takedown put the Golden Gopher on his back late in the match to complete the major decision.

Frost is the 311th All-American in program history.

The Louisiana native is the 164th Cyclone to reach the podium at the national tournament and it marks Iowa State's seventh-consecutive season under head coach Kevin Dresser with an All-American. It is ISU's second-consecutive year with an All-American at 141 pounds (Anthony Echemendia, 2024).

Frost finishes his season with a 33-9 record and 16 bonus-point victories (3 WBF, 9 TF, 4 MD).

Iowa State finished Session 5 in 27th place with 18.0 team points.

PHILADELPHIA – Iowa State 141-pounder Jacob Frost secured All-America honors Friday night during Session 4 of the NCAA Championships. The Cyclone defeated Michigan’s Sergio Lemley, 9-8, to become the 311th All-American in program history.

Frost becomes the 164th Cyclone to reach the podium at the national tournament and it marks Iowa State’s seventh-consecutive season under head coach Kevin Dresser with an All-American. It is ISU’s second-consecutive year with an All-American at 141 pounds (Anthony Echemendia, 2024).

The Louisiana native fell into an early hole after giving up two first period takedowns to Lemley but Frost managed to get two crucial escapes in the period. Frost added takedowns of his own in the second and third periods to claw his way back into the match and fended off a late shot attempt from Lemley as time expired for a 9-8 decision.

In his second match of the night, Jacob got caught in a cow-catcher in the first period and was pinned by Navy’s Josh Koderhandt in 0:59. He will wrestle for seventh place Saturday morning.

His twin brother, Evan, fell a match shy of All-America honors at 133 pounds. The Cyclone dropped a 4-2 decision to Penn State’s No. 8 Braeden Davis in the blood round. It was a first-period for the Nittany Lion that proved to be the difference and prevented Frost from making a repeat trip to the podium.

Iowa State sits in 26th place in the team standings with 16.0 points.

Up Next
Jacob Frost will wrestle Minnesota’s No. 6 Vance Vombaur for seventh place at 141 pounds. The medal rounds begin at 10 a.m. (CT).
