QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 13, 2011 -> 01:33 PM) Yeah, that can't be anything else. As I recall, Ames has an experimental aerospace company HQ'd at the airport that does lots of flying, and it is a pretty significant private aircraft landing point. But it must be that the Clones are headed to the PAC 12! Where did you pick that up, anyway? Is someone so bored they are scouring flight plans? Yea. Flights from Oakland are still a bit unusual. Whoever it is appears to have leased a plane from Wells Fargo and is traveling comfortably. Of course, as ISU fans, we don't even get that much conjecture. The few insiders have either said "ISU and the Big 10 have a prelim agreement in place" or "ISU and Oklahoma are in lockstep". Naturally, I believe we will either land in the Big East or the Big 12 will survive. On another note, sounds like we might bust these out on ESPN2 Friday night:

Heh, plane is flying from near Pac-12 HQ to Ames. Naturally, we MUST be going westward.

As you can imagine, I'm not a big Brian Kelly fan. We went up yesterday with wind gusts to 35, but not all the way. That's about the edge of what we'll do.

Steele Jantz looked like Seneca Wallace.

I hate Iowa. It might be the nicest morning for football, ever. Ever.

Okie State is scary. Boone Pickens Stadium might be one of my favorites in the Big 12.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Sep 8, 2011 -> 02:57 PM) If you are a life long Colts fan this really sucks. He isn't going to last forever. The most difficult thing for any team to do these days is draft a QB. I believe the talent coming out of college has really regressed in the 10 years. Angelo was smart in giving up those picks for Cutler. They most likely would have been wasted on QB busts. The Colts have been fortunate to have 3 franchise QBs in their history with Unitas, Jones and Manning. They could use an Earl Morrall right now. I hope they don't plan on playing him when he returns. They might as well go for a better pick in the draft. Now I wish baseball season would go another month. I'm starting to get turned off by the NFL with their over hype. Give some props to MLB for allowing fans to watch games on the web for a decent fee instead of forcing people into an over priced TV package. There's no point for me to watch the NFL, so bring on the NHL. Yup, if this season goes into the s***ter, I'd like to see them take Peyton's replacement.

As of right now, I'd lean towards the Big 12 surviving and moving towards equal revenue sharing.

It's sad that the old Big 8 will essentially be no more.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Sep 6, 2011 -> 08:04 PM) So Heads, still confident the Big 12 won't fold? Didn't take into account that Texas A&M would simply lie to everyone. The fact that Baylor is the only one suing makes me feel better about ISU. There's actually rumors floating around our AD that we'll be better off where we land, but that could only mean one thing, and I'm not willing to believe it.

Iowa loses a RB for the year in the first game, sure sign that football really is back.

Notre Dame may not be joining the Big 12, but why in the hell are they part of the BYU-Big 12 discussions? Four party talks with BYU and the Big 12, with ESPN and Notre Dame officials also taking part.

This team will probably cocktease us at least once more this year, won't it?

Hooray for getting in the way!

So Pitt shows up as a potential Big 12 target, and today an assistant AD at Pitt's like "yeah, we don't want to talk about it."

I'd rather see Jim go someplace where he can win a title.

Good for Paul.

While we're playing out the string, it'd be pretty sweet to see those two guys get it together. Morel - developing an eye and some power, and Gordon - quit sucking.

Wish I could say that was the first time this year I saw our defense turn a single into something that scored a runner from first

The last few posts made my head hurt.

I'm gonna try and bang a girl next weekend for you. Happy birthday.

Interesting for Forbes, it had sounded like he could have had a shot at a few jobs the last few years - now he's screwed.

I look forward to Mark Buehrle doing Buehrle things.

And they are going to replace the awful new CyHawk trophy, but will use an interim one this year. My suggestion would probably be the old trophy.

Apparently I need to bring Balta to Iowa if I want to prevent the ultra-rare earthquake.
