    Economic Report on the Rest of the Big 12

    People who fall back on insults and histrionics tend not to want to acknowledge facts. I didn’t correct myself or edit a mistake. I gave overall program rankings and the sub discipline ranking. I left all the data there. My point stands. I prefer to be objective rather than rely on emotional...

    Economic Report on the Rest of the Big 12

    People were bringing up research and academics and making unsubstantiated claims about all the supposed “amazing” isu programs. Academically, Nebraska isn’t a peer institution for its b10 institutions. And ISU isn’t either. Simple as that. The B10 isn’t making a Nebraska mistake again, as if a...

    Economic Report on the Rest of the Big 12

    ISU’s bio and ag engineering (one of a couple dozen sub disciplines within ag sciences) is among the top in the US. It’s #2. #1 is Purdue, Iowa’s biggest and most bitter b10 rival. The ag sciences program overall at isu is pretty good, but not top tier in the US or the world, according to the...

    Economic Report on the Rest of the Big 12

    I’m stating facts. you aren’t. isu is nowhere near “number 1” in ag. they are behind a handful of b10 programs in ag too. Waaaaay behind top b10 schools in engineering. and US news has them ranked #37 in ag science...

    Economic Report on the Rest of the Big 12

    No they don’t. ISU engineering is ranked 49th by US News, well behind almost the entire B10. and its “amazing” vet med program is mediocre, ranked 14th of 28. ISU has a few decent programs, nothing remotely close to world class. They don’t come close to being ranked as a university anywhere...

    Economic Report on the Rest of the Big 12

    Bingo. the amount of time and money and energy parents and high schools (not to speak of college) put into sports is a travesty and a joke. NO other country is like this. Schools hating each other because of sports rivalries? Cheerleaders? It’s insane if you step back a bit and have some...

    Economic Report on the Rest of the Big 12

    Princeton too, but Columbia has about as many nobel prize winners as Yale and Princeton combined, and Columbia has passed Yale and Princeton in selectivity, and on par with Harvard. Yale/skull and bones though gave birth to the CIA (the Bush family at the center of it) so there’s that.

    3 hour Hawk Central podcast with Brian Ferentz

    Yep. It’s terrible. And no, I don’t support sons in law and daughters running the show in the White House, or dads getting sons elected president, or any nepotism. and correct me if I’m wrong but in the 20 years I’ve followed recruiting, I don’t ever remember so many lifelong hawk fans...

    3 hour Hawk Central podcast with Brian Ferentz

    I’m being rational. You’re being fanboys. Scandals surrounded brian ferentz when he was a student, making national news and causing the US senate to shut the door on Section 8 abused, then surrounded his being hired over hundreds of more qualified candidates, also making national news, and...

    3 hour Hawk Central podcast with Brian Ferentz

    Omg. This FB program isn’t owned by the ferentz family. Nepotism is unacceptable. he needs to move on, and dad can too when a transition is clearer. He’d be a good assistant coach somewhere else.

    Everyone associated with Iowa Mens Basketball is 100% Vaccinated

    What you think the players think is irrelevant. What they proudly chose to do is clear, though. Clearly they decided to respect science, respect their health, respect their teammates and coaches and families and friends’ health, and chose to be empathetic and responsible. True Hawkeyes. Fight...

    Over 30% of Iowa Players Unvaccinated. They will be Tested Weekly. If they Cause a a Game to Be Canceled....

    No. They are putting themselves AND the team at risk. Delta variant is hitting unvaccinated people in their 20s much harder than last year. Epidemiologists know this. Are you an expert, or a science-denier? HUNDREDS of colleges and universities nationwide are mandating Covid vaccines, as they...

    I just had disease in mind, but there are other relevant examples from the law - negligence, endangerment, etc - but I’m not an attorney so I can’t speak with authority on specific cases.

    if you made a personal choice to drink, operate your boat unsafely, and hit another boat and injure or kill someone, not only would you be condemned, you’d be convicted of reckless operation of a watercraft, injury, and murder 2 or 3. I stop at stoplights. That’s not totalitarian submission...

    Scientists were learning on the fly this whole time, and doing so with active sabotage and mass disinformation and denial from the previous administration. for example: there weren’t nearly enough N95 masks even for doctors last spring. So Fauci at the very beginning told Americans they don’t...

    Yep. even a trump appointed federal judge slapped down a frivolous lawsuit filed against Indiana University by a group of supposedly “oppressed” snowflake students who claimed they had constitutional rights to be free to choose to remain unvaccinated Covid variant incubators and super...

    No. Science, morality, and love for self, family and community. All in this together. The Wave. Hawkeyes. Team. The University of Iowa. vs Paranoia and conspiracy theories and willful ignorance and toxic narcissism. I’m in this for myself. Wild West. Insurrectionists. Cultists.
