Needless to say, prior to Paul Rhoads arrival, not much was expected from Iowa State when they left Jack Trice. After his road win over Iowa on Saturday, Rhoads is now 11-16 on the road. While not overwhelming on its own, in comparison to the previous futility of Cyclone road football, it is pretty stellar. Rhoads has won eleven road games in a shade over five years; Walden/McCarney/Chizik won 15 games in the previous 18 years.

Also CPR has played some of the hardest schedules in the nation every year, where as the other guys had it easy especially every other year before conference realignment. I think he's doing a great job at turning the program around and isn't overpaid or shouldn't be on the hot seat. Sure it sucks he hired an awful OC after Herman left and it set us back a few years, but he's made up for it hiring Mangino. Next year could be a special year(in Iowa State terms).
