OFFENSE AHEAD OF SCHEDULE. Paul Rhoads says that the offense is ahead of where he thought they'd be, but a couple of years of Mess makes you wonder what those expectations were.

OFFENSIVE LINE SHUFFLING. Plenty of changes on the offensive line before practice starts in August again.

AYENI MOVING INSIDE. Not surprisingly, JUCO Terry Ayeni has been shifted inside to DT.

MEDDERS A SPRING STAR. Brandon Chatmon names Brett Medders as Iowa State's star in spring football.

RECRUITING UPDATE. The Cyclones are ahead of only Kansas in 2015 recruiting while the Texas schools clean up.

A TIE? The Cy-Hawk softball game was played yesterday, and ended after 5 innings with a 5-5 tie. BHGP has challenged us to a softball game to settle it. I think we got this.

DIRECTOR'S CUP STANDINGS. Iowa State is doing fairly well.

TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE? The NCAA is finally making some changes, but is it going to be enough to save amateurism?
