A Disappointing Young Cyclone Football Team.

The Iowa State Cyclone football team is in grave danger of having a record of 2 wins and 12 losses. The game against Okie State isn't going well for them at this time, but I didn't expect it to. I don't think Gene Chizik fully realized what challenges he would have to overcome to get ISU back to the top of the Big12 North Division. I know he's not accustomed to losing a double digit number of games during one season and I worry how he might not want to stick around for losing so much. I also know he's not as experienced in rebuilding football programs as Dan McCarney. Even so, this football program is way ahead now as compared to the time when Coach McCarney took over as Head Coach. When Coach Chizik figures out how to fully communicate what he expects from his football team and the team starts believing in his philosophy, ISU will go back to winning ways and having regular appearances to bowl games once more.
