I watched his post game press conference. He used terms like "that team" and "them". He couldn't dare say the name of our team. I think it's immature unprofessionalism. However, he is a very good coach and I really think ISU is gonna be good this year. I personally think it was the greatest game ever in the series since i have been watching which has been at least 35 years. Make no mistake Campbell HATES Iowa.

Tom Kakert on a HawkeyeReport podcast hit the nail on the head about this. Brian totally got under Campbells skin with his comments about recruiting. Since then he refuses to say Iowa or Hawkeyes and won't say any players names. Totally immature and really dumb for him to let Brian get under his skin so much.
Kakert also went on to say that he knows somebody that knew him as a coach at Toledo, and that person thinks he has changed already at ISU. It is that little brother petty mentality. He feels is just permiates through the ISU culture and now Campbell is like that when he was never like that at Toledo.

I personally think he is trying to get attention and place ISU at same level as Iowa by over exaggerating the hatred. Since the hate is so one sided. They obviously hate us more and wants Iowa and ISU mentioned together in the same sentence as much as possible.

He is trying to do the OSU/Michigan thing and it is just dumb. Flat out dumb. Does he now just refer to them as State University?

I'm just an anonymous internet poster, I'm not leading a division 1 football program. One of these exists for the sole reason to be immature and dumb, I'll let you decide which one that is.

if he's smart he'll jump ship this year should he actually get another job offer after a 5 win season which is like 11 wins at any other school.
Ding, ding, ding. Winner!
I highly doubt that he really hates Iowa. Yet, at least. It's a PR thing at this point. Pump up the rivalry, exaggerate his animosity, give his team a common enemy and a rallying point, something to draw them together as a group. And if he manages to generate a little media attention for his program at the same time...well, win-win.
Now, if he fails to break through during the next couple of seasons, then, yeah, he might start to really hate that Team Out East.

He hates us because he MUST. Its not difficult to understand.
Who knows tho. He just quit a better job to take this one.

which is a great season for them.
The whole refusing to say "Iowa" thing just proves how much we're in his (their) head. The funniest thing about the whole clone obsession with IOWA is how they are completely in denial about it and don't even realize how their behaviour and words prove it over and over.

We're just Little ol' Iowa. Why do we generate so much hate?
