Cyclone Player of the Week – Week 8: WR Marquis Hamilton

By on Oct 24, 2007

The top vote getter in the Cyclone Player of the Week voting for week 8 with 48% of the vote is WR Marquis Hamilton . The sophomore wide receiver from Oklahoma had seven catches for 88 yards and rushed 4 times for 8 yards.  Hamilton nearly had a big special teams play as well,  as he just missed blocking a first quarter punt.

I can’t say I agree with the voting this week.  I really felt like the award should have went to a defensive player.  It is not everyday you see a Cyclone team shut out Oklahoma for more than a half.  However it is up to the fans to decide and we don’t use Diebold machines to tally the votes so we are unable to rig the results.

Note:  A defensive player hasn’t won the Cyclone Player of the Week all year.

Iowa State Cyclones – Oklahoma Sooners Prediction

By on Oct 20, 2007

The Cyclones haven’t played well for all 60 minutes in any game in 2007 and I don’t expect that to change this week.  Iowa State was clearly overmatched by Texas last weekend and Oklahoma has more talent than the Longhorns.  ISU will need a near perfect performance to stay in this game.  I really hope I am wrong, but it could get ugly.

Game Prediction: Oklahoma 63 Iowa State 10

Despite the bleak outlook on the game, I am really looking forward to getting to Ames.  Why?Tailgating, great weather, college football and the hope for a huge upset.  

The Iowa State football team is struggling, but I have faith things are going to turn around sooner rather than later.   Why? Recruiting  

The Cyclones will be hosting a gaggle of top rated visitors from the class of 2008 tomorrow.  The following is a list of potential visitors for the game.

Verbal Commits
QB Jerome Tiller – Robert E. Lee High School (San Antonio, TX)
TE Carter Bykowski – Eden Prairie High School (Eden Prairie, MN)
DE Jake McDonough – Valley High School (West Des Moines, IA)
DE Tracy Robertson – Lamar High School (Houston, TX)
ATH Dustin Land – Milton High School (Milton, FL)

Prospects
DE Kraig Bates – Centerville High School (Centerville, TX)
DE David Bedford – Independence Community College (Independence, KS)
DE Doran Guillory – Kelly High School (Beaumont, TX)
CB Terran Benton – Summit High School (Mansfield, TX)
LB Ben Durbin – Gilbert High School (Gilbert, IA)
RB Joe Johnson – Valley High School (West Des Moines, IA)
K Grant Mahoney – Linn-Mar High School (Marion, IA)
OT Christian Molina – Countryside High School (Clearwater, FL)
OT Cedric Mack – El Camino Community College (Torrance, CA)

Iowa State football will also be hosting a number of top rated sophomores and juniors from all across the Midlands. 

Cyclone basketball is less than a month away.  Are you as excited as I am for the season to get here?  The Iowa State coaches will be hosting three visitors from Randolph, Wisconsin on Saturday including Kyle Kelm who has an ISU offer. 

C/F 6’8 Sophomore Kyle Kelm
G 6’1 Sophomore Zach Reuter
G 6’1 Junior Tyler Tillema
