  • Apathy...

    I hope our athletic department is thinking ahead to next year. Our fan base would generally be described as "fair weather" in my opinion and I am worried this season will lead to a more apathetic fan base.

    Hopefully this season in a pandemic is treated as an anomaly and the excitement of AJ and everyone else can get the turnout the players deserve.

    The athletic department is definitely not thinking ahead to next year, they are too busy marketing color out games for the 500 people that are allowed to watch the games.

      I mean... there isn't really a ton of marketing that can be done in a season like this. I've felt for a while now that this year is basically a test run for the coaches and we're kind of looking forward to next year. Yes, I'm sure they want to win, but I also feel like they're trying different things. Throw in AJ being out and Kimmons gone, I think it makes a lot of sense.

      With those 2 guys out (who were probably going to combine for 50+ min/game) we have 10 guys who have played in double digit games and 8 guys who have started - that doesn't include Ty Anderson who has played quite a bit since coming back from injury. With Anderson, all 11 of those guys have averaged 8+ min/game, when they've played. Jake is usually very consistent - rarely shaking up the starters and always going with the hot hands as much as he can. Maybe I'm wrong, but it just feels like this is a learning year as much of anything. Honestly, I'm fine with that. It's so messed with already, and as frustrating as this year is, it'll only help us in the future.
      To avoid confusion - my username is baseball (Cy Young award) related, NOT for the Cyclones.

          Better hope so.

          MBB has been an F-
          VB has been an F
          WBB has been a C

          Speaking of marketing, the AD has yet to reveal if any of the football games will be streamed or broadcast and the season starts in 7 days.

            Wrestling's been decent. Beaten everyone who they should have beaten, and held it close with teams that outranked us. I'd give them a B+.

              My channel guide has the SDSU game on channel 23/KCWI in Des Moines.

              It's a little odd that the unipanthers schedule isn't showing the same. Maybe they are finalizing some other options.
