JFC pollard had as much if not more to do with this than Iowa. Isu struggled with uni a lot more than the Hawks did. This event had been rumored before uni was even any good. I remember Alford taking flak for being noncommittal and that was like 2004.

ISU athletics struggles with alot of things...... UNI is just another name on their giant **** list.

Re: Another thriller in Iowa City

I am now concerned that 9yr hasn't posted right after TH on this thread in almost 12 hours. Has anyone heard from 9yr?

Re: Another thriller in Iowa City

The pissing and moaning is not about playing Iowa. It's about how much the big 4 event sucks compared to the home/home arrangement. The big 4 is still infinitely times better than not playing at all.

Your comments about BCS schools knocking on the door to come to Cedar Falls are complete insanity. TD has said he has reached out to every BCS school in the region about playing in CF with no luck.

He needs to try harder. Do a 3-1 or 4-1 if possible, but get them in CF! I can't believe we can't get on the schedules of Wisky, Minny, Nebbie, Mizzou, Illini, and several other local midwest BCS teams.

This from the Gazette without a mention of UNI and Iowa not playing for the first time in a quarter century.

Why would it warrant a mention in that article?

Why the hell would we do a 3-1 or 4-1? Pretty hard to make a home schedule when you have to play 3 or 4 road games per home game. If we can't get a home/home or neutral court game we're better off playing a guarantee game like we did at Virginia and buying a good home game like Iona.

A number of my friends down here in Hawkeye land have commented to me about it being strange they aren't playing UNI this year, and that they aren't particularly happy with the schedule.

Re: Another thriller in Iowa City

It is kind of embarrassing that we have a four page long thread about Iowa's schedule. Yeah, they scheduled a bunch of cupcakes......who cares. Yeah, it is obvious that they ended the home-and-home with us for reasons other than schedule flexibility. I think it is painfully obvious to anyone who knows basketball at all that they just don't want to lose on the road to a mid-major. It is what it is at this point. Honestly we should take it as a compliment that they are afraid of us.

But my goodness does this thread reek of an inferiority complex. Lets just play ball, get ready for the MVC, and stop worrying about what Iowa is or isn't doing. I know we're fans, not players, and part of the fun is the speculation, but I just think this topic has been beaten to a pulp. We should spend less time talking about Iowa and more time talking about UNI.

They're afraid of us. We know it. They know it. Their fans know it even if they wont admit it. There isn't really much else we can do about it. Lets go win the Valley.

No, its not embarrassing. 9yr, TH, and Mudra have the majority of posts in this thread. Two Iowa fans and Mudra, thats why its 4 pages.
