What I would do if I was Iowa State....


A month ago Gene Chizik said he was in Ames for the long haul to get things done. He did, he pulled an Alford. Took a program down a notch from where it was. He's gone to Auburn, somehow, I can't believe that Auburn actually touched him. But that's done now. Time to look forward. Now I'm a Hawkeye fan, but ISU alum so I'm going to try do this with very lil bias.

Iowa State needs to make a move that will bring something innovative to Iowa State. Something that it hasn't seen before, or something the Big XII hasn't seen before. Purdue did it with hiring Joe Tiller and bringing the spread offense to the Big Ten, and that's what I think ISU needs to do, and the coach to do it now is Mike Price of Utep. He's had alot of success at Washington State with a couple Conf Titles and Rose Bowl appearances, and has a fun offense that can put up alot of points.

I'm sure Jamie Pollard won't do that and will go after Turner Gill or someone younger, but I think that's what ISU needs to do.
