Top ten ranking in both polls...last time I was rooting for a top ten Iowa State team in either sport....



Ahh fuck...

He no doubt has me excited about the future, but I'd prefer to see him reign in the team a bit when they decide to go on stretches where they chuck up a 3 pointer on four or five straight possessions...

Next time we go to the Cracker Barrell up here again, I will take you by and you can see one of your new recruits for next year.

And they just hired Mangino as OC for their football team.

They are talented team. Watched the games against scUM and Iowa and they have some studs.

I really like Niang.

Yeah, I've liked Niang ever since the first time I saw him play...really dig what they got going right now with Kane/Ejim/Niang and the other complementary players.

Explains why Brandstadt just put in a big donation of ham to the food banks...

Kane is such a touching story though....

Led the nation in T's, essentially booted from the Marshall program, arrested for battery, spit on a fan.

Hoiberg loves the resume.

The story of redemption is always a great one.

This man



is SO PROUD!

First thought I had when I read that Mangino was hired as OC was them sitting at an Old Country Buffet and Rhoads shouting how proud he is after Mangino puts down his fifth plate.

I'm a horrible person.

And we won't be at the Old Country Buffet?

Are they still around...I'd love to go to one again and plow through plate after plate of mediocre food.

In hindsight, the joke would have been infinitely better if it would have been at Hickory Park.

Well that picture proved to be pertinent...

Kane does something to his ankle and needs to be carried off the floor...fuuuuuuuck.....

Karma...Kane - they both start with K.

He's day to day per Seth Davis. Probably just a sprain.

Yuck Yuck Yuck

Every team has their fair share of pudwhacks...if one doesn't want to root for bad people, they need to take an interest in grade school hoops...

During the commercial break they missed another 3...

Ugh...

If I believed in that sort of thing, I'd say I fucking doomed this team to mediocrity by posting that picture...just like that team, this team has lost back to back Saturday road games against Oklahoma and Texas...

Nice win yesterday...if they can pull off the victory against OSU, the schedule gets much more manageable thereafter.

Rebounding...free throw shooting...two skills I'd love to see more of in the future...

...oh, and stop getting in foul trouble you jackasses.

going into OT #3.

Absolutely maddening...two chances at the end of the game to win it and they run the "let Kane do whatever the fuck he wants" offense...

...it's not until they are down three that they actually try running a play...and look what happens!

Holy shit two free throws! Gonna have to start calling Long 'Canuck Clutch'

Well this will make being half awake at work tomorrow much more palatable...

That was a great game to watch, but they could have ended it earlier.


Now I am tired from staying up and watching it.

Most exciting game they've played all year...but damn, they really need to do a better job with crashing the boards...

...that kid Thomas from Wisconsin is starting to make some big shots...really looking forward to seeing how he develops over the next four years.

Sounds like Rashad Vaughn is going to be announcing his decision this weekend...ISU is a huge longshot so I don't have any real hopes of him coming to Ames...so at this point my thought process is "anywhere but Kansas"...so he's probably gonna pull out a Jayhawks cap.

I see Paul Rhodes had his feelings hurt or something concerning the recruiting of Lazard.
