Bill, is Herrea going out for football this Fall @ ISU?

This is an old article I just stumble upon & he has been a beast on the mat having won 2 state titles in CA & just won the 3A 285# title while breaking a record in the finals with 18 points. I’d imagine he’d be good in the DL also with those dominant wrestling skills.

NIL, CYTown article in The Daily

Interesting that the tenants will build/pay for the buildings.

Schools with lowest expectations per conference

I hope you can open this Facebook post. Interesting comments. Opposing fans have higher regard than some ISU fans.


Here are some comments:

Iowa State has a solid football team, probably the most underated relative to their talent in the Big XII. A lot of people don't take them as serious as theyshould.
Yes, they will be in a solid Non-playoff bowl game most likely.

Yes. Just ask Oklahoma State. ISU football is solid and always fun to watch.

ISU is typically 1 score (3 or less pts) away from winning every game they lose in FB. Always the team that is literally a few plays away from being undefeated each season. Their standings in the conference each year don't tell the whole story. Farmageddon is always epic. As a KStater I am always seeing them as a challenge.

right on. Until we (ISU) learns how to play a FULL 4 quarters of football we’ll remain average.

Since when? We overperformed with a very young team… I’m expecting a top five finish in 2024.


And Cincy is probably more accurate for the Big XII. ISU competes every year

Former ISU LB Bobby McMillen

...has completed his first year as LB coach at New Mexico State University. Thought it was interesting.

Had a bizarre thought the other morning

For whatever reason, a few days ago Prohm's last season popped into my spacious, empty head and I tried to remember who was on that team. We didn't buy season tix that year because there was zero chance I was going to sit there with a stupid mask on and once it became clear how bad they were, I didn't even turn on the tube. When I started thinking of the guys on that team....I drew a complete blank. Not one. So I cheated and took a look and wow....Dudley Blackwell? Darlinstone Dubar? Tyler Harris?...lol...holy crap. But also Bolton, Coleman-Lands, & Conditt. Can you imagine an in-depth article about that season and what actually went on? I went back and took a look at the games and ISU was actually very close on some conference games and then I saw the ISU @ Miss State score 56-95. Lawdy. Any inside sniipets you have from that team/season?

Nice piece from KCCI..... quite the young lady, with a smile that lights up a room. We got a good one with a large dose of humility wrapped up inside.

Could it ever be repaired?

I hope this isn't off topic but I saw a thread about EIU vs Wisconsin and it made me wonder if there will ever be a day where the two schools don't hate each other as much as they do now. I'm not gonna lie (to paraphrase the only EIU football player I can currently stand) but I utter a curse word whenever I see that they actually won a game in anything. It goes back, for me, more years than some on this board have been alive. Raisin Face made it a holy mission to ruin us so badly that we would never pose a threat to their primacy. It almost seemed a few of our AD's and coaches signed up for that too. But as we've gotten better and bigger, and since I don't live in Iowa anymore and don't have to witness their crap firsthand, I kind of shrugged when they beat Wisconsin as if it didn't really matter in any respect. But that is foreign to me. I live to see them lose. I know I'm poisoned but what about others? There are a few who I actually know who put EIU first, but act as if they cheer for us "when you're not playing the hawks." Do those people exist on our side? Does this really matter? Will it evolve in some what where the two sides view each other as "Iowa teams" and actually root for each other? Personally, I can't see it, but there are far more rational voices on this forum than me. Screw the hoks!
