The national average gas price has reached $4 per gallon after rising $1.06 over the past month. This is the largest increase ever recorded.

Honestly, at this point, I hope we just make it through the next 3 years without doing irreparable damage. “Us against the world” is a cool sports mantra. Probably not the best look in foreign relations though.

@squash003 @MrAnderson_93 Never claimed I did. But if it satisfies your requirements, I will clarify by stating, “In my opinion, none of them come back.”

Retain Falslev, Templin and Elamin, add a legitimate center and another shooter and you’ve got yourself a sweet sixteen / elite eight caliber team.

Utah State does not miss That program is a well oiled machine Don't think anyone would be surprised in the slightest if Jacobson takes the Aggies dancing in year 1 If that comes to fruition it would be State's 5th different head coach to reach the tourney in a 7 year span 🤯

Sources: Utah State and Northern Iowa coach Ben Jaconson are finalizing a five-year deal to make him the school’s next coach, per me and @jeffborzello. Jacobson won 397 games over 20 seasons at Northern Iowa, including five NCAA appearances.

Not many coaches meet with the local media of the school they're leaving, but anyone who knows Ben Jacobson is not surprised. Here Ben explains why he's taking the Utah State job after 25 years at UNI. The question is from @MarkWoodleyTV. Video: UNI Athletics

Ira has been the absolutely best journalist reporting on Utah State since @Tjonesonthenba. Everybody should be following her because she’s really proven herself as a journalist. But USU fans should especially follow her.

Full (and free) story on Utah State hiring Northern Iowa's Ben Jacobson for @TheAthletic. A note for Aggies fans: Per source, California's Mark Madsen was never seriously considered. Speculation that crowded social media were all simply rumors. More: nytimes.com/athletic/71577…

@huutransuperman Totally agree. Frankly, if this hire happened two days ago before all those nonsensical Madsen rumors, there would not be as nearly many disappointed Aggie fans crying over the internet.

Huusville do you think you are?!? I am!!!
This is the first time in the last like 5 years that I’m seeing USU fans crashing out. Which is crazy. I don’t remember ever hearing USU coaching rumors prior to this. It may not be as “splashy” as the the rumors but Jacobsen seems like a good fit for USU,
Ryan Hammer🔨@ryanhammer09

Big fan of this hire for Utah State Ben Jacobsen has been at UNI his entire head coaching career - 20 years. 5x NCAA Tournament appearances, some of the most memorable moments in tourney upset history. Great coach, didn't think he would ever leave at this rate. A+ @USUBasketball

@BradenTClark @DeadAirwithJDW I am not negative on the hire like I am seeing from many of our Aggie family, but I don’t think there is any price that keeps anyone of consequence from last year’s squad. This will be a total rebuild.

Positives: Coach Jacobson's buyout is pennies compared to the other rumored head coaches: Mark Madsen and Eric Olen. Utah State can now take that $3+ million from Calhoun and reinvest it into our team. I hope that Coach Jacobson's first objective is to find the cost to retain our current roster of studs, and then begin to fill out the team after that. Celebrate, Aggies.
Braden “Brady” Clark@BradenTClark

There's a lot of bitter Aggies on the socials today about this hire. It is what it is. I am choosing to be optimistic about it, and hopeful that he is the right guy for the Aggies. Everyone hates it, so you know it will be a good hire.
