My senior year of high school was the last time the Brewers went to the World Series. Great way to start retirement!

[Keith Murphy @KeithMurphy]

Brewers sweep the Dodgers. World Series next.

[Michael T. Benson @michaeltbenson]

Enjoyed being with our @Big12Conference colleagues in Dallas for fall meetings. Especially grateful for the friendship of @IASTATEAD and wish him well in retirement. What a difference he's made during his tenure in Ames.

Fun day in Ames yesterday! Congrats Dad on an amazing career! ❤️ @IASTATEAD

[Jamie Pollard @IASTATEADE]

My last game day run as AD. What a beautiful sunrise coming up over the bridge. Thank you to Ethan Trometer of Ames for stopping to take my picture. Go Cyclones!

No. 5 in Week 2 👏

Up to No. 2 in Week 2!

Thanks to the band for a very cool tribute.

[Jamie Pollard @IASTATEADE]

Thanks to Abbey Heron, and her Triton Academy cheer squad teammates, for taking my picture on my Cyclone game day run this morning. Awesome to see so many Cyclone fans already tailgating. A little rain can't stop Cyclone Nation!

[Jamie Pollard @IASTATEADE]

Just learned the @isucfvmb will be performing a tribute tomorrow at half-time. Can't wait to hear/watch it! The marching band rocks!

Sixteen years ago we played Utah in Jack Trice Stadium. Coach Rhoads selected our son James as one of his team captains. James was going through cancer treatments at the time. Coach Rhoads ultimately created what is now a game day tradition - Having a Kid Captain.

A little thunder and rain was not going to cancel the game day tradition of a morning run over the bridge. Thanks to Jason Runyan from Ames for agreeing to take my picture. Go Cyclones!

[Jamie Pollard @IASTATEADE]

Hard to believe it has been 8 years since this senseless tragedy. We will never forget CBA. Have kept a picture of her on my desk as a constant memory.

Really excited to welcome Kenny Chesney & Eric Church to Jack Trice Stadium next June. Thanks to the Oak View Group, our new CyTown scheduling partner, for making this happen.

[Jamie Pollard @IASTATEADE]

It's game day - love my morning run including running over the bridge to RV village with the sun rising on the horizon. Thanks to Joey Pitts, a very loyal Cyclone fan, for agreeing to take the picture. Go Cyclones!

[Tyler Rutherford @tyruth18]

Year 21 of @CycloneFB starts tomorrow. We used to all fit in a small room. Now there is over 70 of us (!!!) staffers between full-time staff, ISU students and freelancers that run our creative video content, videoboard shows and ESPN+ broadcasts! You win with good people!

[Iowa State Track & XC @CycloneTrackXC]

Picking up where we left off 👏

The Iowa State men are a national top 5 preseason team for the third-straight season!

Cyclones WIN!!

[Jamie Pollard @IASTATEADE]

Thanks to the @ISUCFVMB for inviting me to their preseason practice last night to speak to the band one last time in my career. So many great memories over the past two decades with the band. Going to miss you! Look forward to listening to you perform this Fall.

[Cyclone Marching Band @ISUCFVMB]

Thank you isn’t enough to say to the best Athletic Director in the business. Jamie Pollard’s support has been instrumental in shaping the Cyclone Marching Band into what it is today. There will always be an alto saxophone spot open for you in the @ISUCFVMB_Alumni for you!♥️💛♥️

The best summary I have read of where we stand with College Athletics.
