Wilkins Commits To Iowa State

Wilkins Commits To Iowa State

I wouldn't call him a center (he's 6'9 and 215lbs), but he's a forward who could potentially log some minutes. Seems undersized but we'll see, I guess

He is suspended for the first 5 games of the season, and has 3 years of eligibility coming into ISU. The scholarship chart will be updated accordingly soon.

Now, let's do our part and pack Hilton on Sunday and Tuesday! I've got my tickets, you got yours? For $9/game, it's hard to go wrong!

Congrats to Coach Fennelly and the Twister Sisters for putting together a season much better than expected! Here's hoping that Cycone Nation can help them get to the Sweet 16!

A day or two behind on this, but the video on www.cyclones.com for the football team is nicely done. Also, for those having economic challenges, they are introducing 6 month payment plans for football season tickets.

Greg Mac getting too much slack

I wrote this two years ago for the site and stumbled across it the other day. I'm amazed I feel the same way, and a lot of my predictions came true.

Banks Out For Insight - ISU Career Over

Banks Out For Insight - ISU Career Over

Broke some undisclosed team rules. It's too bad that a Senior will put in all of that time over these years, to not be able to participate in any of the bowl festivities. At the same time, there has to be a good reason to dole out a punishment like this, and a guy needs to use better judgment. Overall, I think it's too bad.

Brackins is the player of the week, averaging 25 and 11 this past week, while Gilstrap is rookie of the week, averaging 14 and 7.

Cyclones Sign DeMarcus Phillips

Sounds like a big get, on a team that's going to lose a lot of scoring. The scholarship chart will be updated accordingly soon.

Cyclones Volleyball With A Big Win Over Texas

Cyclones Volleyball With A Big Win Over Texas

They beat #2 Texas in 5 sets. ISU Volleyball has never had a bigger win. This team looks to be a legit national contender, and if they can beat #10 Nebraska on Saturday, I'm sure that #8 ranking will go up.

CBS Blogpoll Week 9

Funny how one week I can win "Mr. Stubborn", another week I am in the top 5 for "Mr. Manic Depressive", and now I'm back in the top 5 for "Mr. Stubborn".....

I will say that last week there were not a lot of marquee matchups, so SOS did not grow stronger relative to each other for most teams. The previous week it did, which is why there was a lot of movement...

Bubu Palo Is Going To Be A Great Cyclone?

A funny debate about the value of walkons, and how fans put too much stock in an exhibition game against an NAIA team.

Here's an epic rally from last nights volleyball win over the Cornhuskers of Nebraska. For those who didn't know, ISU had never beaten Nebraska in program history. ISU prevailed in 5 sets to win 3-2. I think this is hopefully a good sign for the football game on Saturday.

Jarvis West Commits to ISU

Iowa State has added another 3 star WR to it's 2010 recruiting class. West was also looking at Ole Miss and Nebraska. I believe this is the 4th verbal in 3 days ISU football has picked up. Whatever the staff is telling these kids is working.
