I admit, I stopped watching after Rick left. But I thought I would give the new shows a chance. I am watching the newer seasons (currently half done with season 10). It really got good again after Angela Kang took over. It is good like the early years. The Whispers are the best villans since Negan. Negan's transformation is well written and well acted. It sucks Michonne left, but it is great to have Maggie back. Also with Rick gone (and I love Rick) the other characters are much more developed. If you stopped watching I highly recommend you give it a try.

Hector Salamanca Arroyo placed his Drake University diploma on the table in front of him and told lawmakers he remembers nervously stressing about whether he would qualify for in-state tuition as an 18-year-old more than a decade ago.

Arroyo, who was undocumented at the time, did receive in-state tuition and studied criminal justice at Des Moines Area Community College before transferring to Drake, where he graduated with honors in 2015. Qualifying for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program allowed him to work legally in the country so he could pay for his education, he said.

"My educational journey all started by qualifying for in-state tuition," he said.


Arroyo was speaking out Monday against a bill in the Iowa House that would ban undocumented students from qualifying for in-state tuition at Iowa's three public universities and 15 community colleges.

House File 2128 would require Iowa's regents universities and community colleges to adopt rules specifying that students must be either U.S. citizens or lawfully present in the country to receive in-state tuition.

...and then that guy went on to coach the O Line
And then the D Line

We did pretty damn good during those years

That dude's name (from the Iowa HS ranks) was Reese Morgan.


I think he turned out OK.
So, maybe step away from the ledge and give this Lester guy a chance...

Cut and pasted from another place I post, so some of the names might not make a lot of sense:

As way of some background, baseball has 11.7 scholarships and 40 on the roster. What we're trying to do is help financially to off set the burden of baseball players that pay in state or out of state tuition and don't benefit from an athletic scholarship.

We've had some interest and activity regarding the match by @Tx_Hawk and Bruce directed to baseball. These donations need to be either $1,000, or $100 monthly. Anyone that has asked me has been directed to Swarm on individual donations of this size. I'll be doing this before the end of the year myself.

I really appreciate and want to thank those donors and @Tx_Hawk Hopefully tax planning prior to year end will genreate some additional interest and donations.

@Hawk Writer and RTI Threads are moving towards production of apparel and specialty items, and hope to have this done prior to the Christmas Holiday. The first apparel / specialty items are going to be team items, so every member of the Iowa baseball team can share reap some financial benefit. Some of the better known players already have NIL deals, and several have bright futures in MLB. The most important part of the RTI Threads NIL partnership to me was at least part of the benefit could be shared by the entire team, not just the star players.

I continue to put together business to individual player contracts, and Swarm does this as well. Some of the original donors are used to doing this outside of Swarm, so we continue to do this. There is no competition between this and Swarm at all. In fact I've offered, and it's been accepted, to introduce Swarm to some larger donors I know after football season. No one can promise an outcome, but myself and other continue to knock on doors to the extent we can between our personal lives and running our businesses.

Smaller donations that can't be directed towards baseball (under $1,000 or $100 monthly) have been collected and will be distributed to Swarm when that amount reaches $1,000, or bundled and a contract is entered into. This has been the most complicated part for a variety of reasons. It has always been the slowest part, which is unfortunate. We need more access to smaller donors, and smaller donors need to be comfortable that their funds make it to Swarm and baseball eventually.

We're going to have some news going forward which will make it easier to collect smaller donations. It's been a slow process. We needed to do this with legal advice, in a way which the U of I was comfortable with, and didn't muddy the waters and create confusion with the, efforts of Swarm.

@KyleHuesmann has really been an advocate for baseball (also field hockey, women's basketball, etc.) so no one better to report on the news when it's ready.

I believe based on a conversation during fall baseball, and I don't want to speak for them, the Iowa radio announcers have looked into what, if anything, they can mention on their baseball radio broadcasts about baseball NIL. I'm not sure if John Evans posts on here, but if so, he could add his insight. @Johnny_Golfer could weigh in also. @Johnny_Golfer posted publicly on this board that he took advantage of Swarm's match, so I want to thank him here.

A lot of this stuff takes time. It's frustrating. There have been numerous delays due to the above and other things. We're moving forward and we've had a lot of help. Everyone involved is doing this essentially pro bono, including the attorney.

The next delay will be my fault as I'm headed to Indianapolis, and after that will be back and forth between Iowa and Florida. There is only so much of me to go around, and I can't be in three places at one time.

Again, I want to thank all donors to all Iowa sports, whether that has been for baseball, directly through me, directly to Swarm, to the I Club, or even if you buy some single game tickets. Everyone is equally important regardless of donation size, or even f they decide to not donate at all. I've publicly thanked several posters in this thread. There are a handful of others involved who have remained anonymous. You know who you are, you know how much I appreciate all of your efforts, and you know how proud I am to be associated with you, even if only in this small endeavor.

I think it's a real possibility after football is over, some of our efforts will benefit more than just baseball. To be clear, I am very much a baseball and football fan. Although several years ago I became an Iowa women's basketball fan, and @KyleHuesmann might be getting my hooked on women's field hockey. And one of the donors is working on me about wrestling, as I work on him about a baseball donation. I'm not particularly aggressive, so maybe some day a go getter will take all of this over from me. We could use a CPA or accountant who is willing to donate some time pro bono, or anyone else for that matter.

One of the more frustrating parts of this game was watching Indiana players get a crazy number of offensive boards from reaching way over boxouts, lean and fall onto our guys shoulders, heads, hit the backs of our hands, and at no point was it ever called.

Anyone hear? Did he say no?

Not sure if this violates the rules here or not. Iowa plays Michigan State at Kinnick Saturday Sept 30. The night before (Friday 9/29) Geoff Tate of Queensryche plays a show at the First Avenue Club. Unfortunately, I'm bummed that I can no longer attend. I have a table reserved that includes 4 tickets for sale. I paid $145.80, and that's what I'm asking (ok, round to $145). They are paper tickets I'd send in the mail. If interested, send me a PM and we'll get it done.

At least he apologized

A lot of people are saying it

Give me some recommendations for online lessons / teachers.

I haven’t started any yet and am collecting suggestions. Any you found helpful? Any you’d stay away from?

Thanks in advance!

For me it's this compound interest. How banks get away with this is just crazy. IMO, this doesn't allow people to gain equity. People shouldn't have to pay 10 years in order to make headway on a mortgage/loan.

Let's keep the politics out of it!!!

Why? Other parts being announced? Wr coach? Another assistant coach? Hmmm.

Okay, we’re getting started now.

Give me your winner, long shot, core, and who you are fading.

Bad weather? I usually go Euros.

And here’s Tony Finau hitting a driver with 172 ball speed into the 55 mph wind on 7.

Game on.

Seems like every time I go into a store or restaurant anymore there's some boy band song on. Mostly, I just tune them out but some of them have started to grow on me... which ones are more tolerable 25 years later?

What if we go from 133 in offensive production to let’s say 90. Not where we want to be, but that probably takes us close to 30 points per game??
And what if our defense can be top 10, which I don’t think is a stretch either.
Can we beat Washington or UCLA? Can we go 10-2 or 11-1 with that offense and defense?
