If your owners would stop donating to the Iowa Republicans, who wrote, introduced, and passed this hateful legislation, weโd be able to. Put up or shut up,
@kumandgo
Wow...this is a bad take. Everyone does this work for their own reasons. Its dismissive and hurtful to tell someone their work matters less because they donโt support your candidate.
Most campaign staffers treat the job as a career stepping stone, while their volunteers treat it as a hobby or community service. Bernie's campaign is motored by people who see it as a vehicle for transforming their own lives and society. They're dead serious and it's paying off

Yโall better pronounce his name correctly (Itโs Darren) and appreciate the gem youโre getting. Coach is a great person and an even better basketball mind.

Hope we get to see him doing this in the Knapp next year, but regardless Imma watch him do it to whoever.

Bulldog fans:
As we process the next few days, itโs important to recognize the players and their families are also going through it.
Whatever choices they decide to make, we gotta have their backs.

look out for each other.

The relationship between fan and college sports is being broken. If you donโt realize that then youโll be one of many media members and wxecs asking โwhat happenedโ in 10 years when numbers plummet

The Longest Active Home Win Streaks in D1 College Basketball:
Virginia - 23
Drake - 18
Houston - 18
Towson - 18
UConn - 17
Kansas - 17
San Diego State - 17
Morehead State - 16
Auburn - 15
High Point - 15
The fact that Drake fans turned out in the 100s for a third NCAA trip in 4 years is wild to me. Weโve come so far in less than a decade.
At the same time, we have to take the next step. Looking to build on this for next year.
Hoping things fall the right way and we get my guy

back in the Knapp.
Either way though, Conorโs led the way with this yearโs team and only plays one speed. Heโs also got the best hair in the 23-24 Valley.
Keep shooting, Conor.
I canโt attend Drakeโs first game as Im celebrating an award my fatherโs receiving, but I canโt tell you how much this guy means to the Drake program. He stirs the drink, sets the tone. Heโs every Bulldogโs point god

Thank you Coach for everything. You helped resurrect this program and you've always got a home and fans in Des Moines,
HUGE thank you to
@richterhoops
for everything he helped build at Drake over the past 6 years. Bulldogs would not have had the success weโve seen without him here. Changed a university and a community for the better.

request. Reynolds took a week to ask Feds for help. They all failed Iowans.
This. Players, families and coaches all deserve our respect and support.
This is what happens. Hopefully some may want to come back, but either way weโll be okay.
Drake fans: get your mind right today.
Youโre going to see a lot of transfer activity, and itโs going to be a very real reminder that this era has come to an end.
The worst thing you can do is take it out on players.
Cheer these guys on, the same way we did all season.
Please follow this account if you need help finding a vaccine appt.
*side note* - the fact a third party Twitter acct is doing more to connect Iowans than
@KimReynoldsIA
is beyond disappointing
I went to bed at 2AM yesterday with about 700 followers. 22-ish hours later, I'm turning in with almost 6600. The excitement and desire that Iowans have to get the vaccine and help bring their communities closer to 'normal' gives me brightness and hope. Thank you, good night.
So proud of this
@DrakeBulldogsMB
team. Never quit, gutted it out to the end. Despite injuries, bad shooting %, bad FT %, and a 21 pt first half run by LUC, they were a turnover and 2 pt basket away. This programโs in a great spot.
I canโt wait to see what next year brings.
Drake dug deep Middle of the second half and did what they needed to do. Dogs arenโt playing their best right now, but itโs all lead up to March.
Good win against Northen (U-N-what). On to the next one.
Tuck won back to back POY on a bum shoulder. Just wild how good he is.
Thanks for everything
@Tucker_DeVries
. It was an absolute thrill cheering you on and watching you compete. I hope some part of Drake always sticks with you.

Sources: Drake has hired Ben McCollum as the next head coach of the men's basketball team.
McCollum - an Iowa native - led Northwest Missouri State to four Division II national championships and a 394-91 overall record.

2/2 quick story bout Roโs hustle. Itโs 2021 & about 10 F. Iโm feeling sorry for myself after a long night at work & order grocery delivery. Checking Insta, I see a vid Ro posted putting up shots early that morning. Guess who delivers my groceries? Yeah, itโs Ro. Heโs that guy.
6'7 prospect Tavion Banks out of Northwest Florida State has committed to Drake.
Banks averaged 9.3 points & 6.7 rebounds as a freshman this past year.
Per JucoRecruiting, No. 11 prospect.

You do realize $1000 will barely cover out of pocket costs teachers pay for their classroom supplies, right?

Hi from Cedar Rapids. Not sure this will post. Cell service still terrible.
Been hard to look at.
Imagine if Katrina had hit with just a few hoursโ warning.
Iowans deserve a Senator who is ACTUALLY going to fight for them, and put the people of our great state first. Iโm a farm kid with farm kid values ready to fight for working people. Thatโs why Iโm running for US Senate.
