FOOTBALL ***Cyclones.com roster turned over to 2024 mode***

I'm not sure how long ago this was done, but the roster has been updated with all January additions. There'd been a lot of speculation on who was coming back for Covid years and who wasn't. As it turns out, Jarrod Hufford and Darien Porter are the only two of the scholarship players returning for freebees. Easton Dean and the other seniors have moved on.

NOTE: updated heights and weights will not be entered until the summer.

Mojo Nixon RIP

Sorry to take you away from political sniping at each other for a few minutes (which is why I'm never on the board) but I wanted to post on the passing of one of music's last true rebels.

I saw him play live twice; once at People's and once at the M-Shop. Unforgettable shows.

Would this make Iowa State a bunch of money, potentially?

Sounds like a pretty incredible break through! I would imagine Iowa State and the professor would get a nice pat on the back with some bills! Pretty proud of ISU!

Curtis Jones - mea culpa

Okay, I don't know how many of you will admit to feeling this way....but back in November/early December, I was really down on Curtis Jones. Couldn't hit a shot, forcing things, not solid on defense, just looked like he was in WAY over his head with the move from Buffalo up to the Big 12.

Now, I can hardly believe the player he has become. Solid in virtually every way - he is shooting the ball great, defending at a high level, not forcing, and what is maybe the best thing, he gives us a THIRD ballhandler and is a quality combo guard who can handle the point guard duties. I actually feel more comfortable with the ball in his hands than Keshon's hands, and I think most people see Keshon as the "backup" point guard. Curtis only has 16 turnovers the whole season! And 48 assists as well. 13 points in 30 minutes today off the bench with some dagger threes!

I was wrong about him. He has improved a ridiculous amount in the last 2 months. He is averaging almost 10 ppg as well as shooting 78% from the line. He has become invaluable to what ISU is doing and the style they are playing.

Bravo Curtis, bravo. Outstanding.

Biden’s DOJ

Just came out with a report that says he’s an elderly old man who didnt remember when he was VP or when his son died? Basically saying he’s mentally unfit to be tried? Then his staff decided to put him on TV to address it, and he said Mexico is on the border of Gaza? This is after he said he had conversations with two dead people earlier this week.

Can‘t make it up.
