Someone with votes moneys and wealth, like a good salesman, should finance somebody like HFN to open up a false business of some sort in Ames. Then one of us could alt about it on crybag. I'm thinking once ppl on there new that HFN was the manager, and that Chuxorz was the one pumping cash into it, instant boycott....... Think Hawkeye Water Filtration and spill cleanup services, or some shit. Alright, dipshits, how the fuck did this fly over your heads?

I will admit that it was disturbing that the program veered off course so badly last year. CPR takes part of the blame for that with hiring decisions, especially on the offensive staff. Hopefully, simple bad luck accounts for the rest of that disaster.
The true test of CPR's long term plan comes this season. The athletes he has recruited into the program have to start showing up. If we get dominated again this year, it will reveal a lot. Ditto for coaching. If good hires were made, it will show up in performance on the field. Count me in the camp that says the offense can't be any worse than last year.
Bad luck? Long term plan?
JFC, these people act liek Whodes was hired yesterday...

Seriously? Do you somehow recall a fucking mountain range while you were in college? look squarenuts, the terrain around Iowa City (where I spent 98% of my time in Iowa) is pretty hilly, because of the river. In fact, many areas of eastern Iowa have nice contour and elevation. U mad Norwalk? Problem, western Iowa? Allamakee county for the win. #driftlesszone

It's going in the same ONE direction it has always been going, the only difference is they will soon have an awesome bowled-in end zone that will be the envy of all.

Actually you are correct dey gave away one of der home games to play in arrowhead and make $1 Million. Otherwise known as what normal big 5 conference schools pay to get Arkansas St or middle Tennessee st to play a game. My guess when da SEZ project is finished they won't be scheduling home and aways with MAC schools because they will be rolling in da fucking dough.

Toledo, k-state, WVU, and TCU is all I got, ND St if I go crazy. Kansas is another one. Kstate is a L for them most likely. They gave up 5.5 yards per carry last year. Lost their best two DL. Gave up like 270 yards per game on the ground. Went three and out on 50% of their possessions. That's 123rd in the country. Fluke. Mangino. All in. New attitude. Everyone likes each other. 6 wins, easy.

I live in Clownville and all I keep hearing about is how brutal the schedule is and so I looked at it. Maybe it is considered brutal for ISU but I actually think it is more clown delusion inspired by Pollard. Last year they had a tough schedule but I guess I don't see it this year. I think they play only two ranked teams.
Schedule aside this is my observation of the Clones feel free to chop my analysis up.
Richardson wouldn't even have played against Iowa last year if they had any other conceivable option. He battled a injury all season and is definitely a better QB then they have had in the past. I'm not playing Cyclone delusional but offensively they will be significantly improved. The prior O-Line coach was a huge factor in their demise, a very poor coach and he really took the morale out of the them. Hard to believe it but the under classman are markedly improved and they have done a great job of red shirting most of the freshman the past two seasons. They are still ISU and if the Bison beat them it may get ugly. Defensively they are obviously bad, but I'm not running my chops in Clownville just yet I'm waiting until we have the W.

I think their offense will be better, but I doubt it is significant. Richardson in their best QB, but he's not very good. He has played two decent games in his entire career, against Kansas in 2012, and against Texas in 2013. I am sure he'll be better as an upperlcassman, but he's still only started 8 games, and has won 2 games he started because he's injury prone. He is the epitome of small time QB, and I have no doubt the clowns will start three QBs this season. As for their O line, yeah, they're older, but experience does not equal talent. Scherff was a dominant tackle as a sophomore. Their line is a bunch of also rans who couldn't open holes against their own shiity defensive line. Rhoades and Mangino have no established history of coaching all conference or NFL caliber linemen, so to think a position coach change will make a difference is ludicrous. While they may be better, even much better, than last season doesn't say shit. They'll go from terrible to mediocre.

Problem: your offensive can be improved. And it can't get any worse than it was. However, when your defense can't stop anyone and gives up 35-40 a game, It won't matter

The end of the year power rankings for strength of schedule last year had Iowa at 29 and ISU at 47. So much for their tough schedule.

Coordinator changes almost always have an immediate negative affect on teams. It's very rare a new coordinator comes in and revamps an offense in a single season and makes them noticeably better. Look at JVB when they went from KOK to GDGD. It's not like GDGD changed up a whole lot but JVB was totally fucking lost out there. Same thing here. Richardson has three years (his RS plus two more) under Messingham and his system and now he needs to learn Mangina's system. Even if they play changes aren't a big difference I've heard Mangina's system uses all new terms. Simple shit like that can fuck the whole machine up on offense.

When you can pretty much start off the schedule with giving yourself 2 or 3 losses right off the bat it can make the schedule look much tougher than it actually is.
