I find it ironic that the guy who carried Iowa to the incredible heights of a 20-11 season and a four-way tie for 5th place in their league announced his return as if he was Michael Jordan

Thoughts on a great trip out to Morgantown: 1) West Virginia is stunning, especially during the fall 2) Morgantown was a blast, felt kind a slightly larger Ames 3) West Virginia fans were super welcoming and very fun 4) WVU fans love to tailgate 5) WVU fans hate Pitt

Word of advice Cyclone fans: Ignore the “Gameday is only coming because of Iowa” or “Ashton Kutcher/Dan Gable/Vodka Sam” for guest picker nonsense. They’ve never been to AMES. They’re here for ISU. This program has come a long way, and ESPN is recognizing that. #CollegeAmesDay
