The card stunts unify the crowd and look great. Fun photo opportunity. Must people complain about everything? It must be miserable to go through life with such
a negative attitude.
It amazes me that fans think that they know who "should" be playing. Also, Ferentz wants to win more than anyone. Criticism of his decisions during the games is fair, assuming that he has all of these destructive, weird motives is ridiculous.
I did not bring this up to get attacked. I just thought it was interesting that Nova did it. As far as I could see you would not need tickets once you knew the number who showed up. People could just fill in. And I was thinking it it would mainly be students and IC residents who wanted to...
I think they let them in right before the game after knowing the ticket count. Obviously less tickets than empty seats and they would have to move for late shows. I am not sure of all of the details but announcers said it was because of all the no shows due to weather. Local people might come...
Just heard that Villanova gave away 750 tickets tonight
because they knew the weather would keep some fans away. With a storm predicted for tomorrow, Iowa should consider doing something like this. There are certainly logistics to consider, but CHA needs to be nearly full and rocking!

A tough Iowa kid who gives 100 percent. And anyone who sets up or gets on a thread just to bash a Hawk who has played with heart for 4 years is a jerk.
TC Hawk, exactly why are you on this board? All you do is hijack posts with negativity. What a loser hobby. Yuk. Iowa is a top 25 team. EXACTLY which teams do you think should be in the top 25 ahead of them?
The Purdue game tickets were cheap and thousands of enthusiastic Hawkeyes showed up to support the team and coaches. It was a blast and showed that the negativity on this board reflects a skewed segment of our fan base. It was heartwarming. Also, kudos to the Purdue faithful who cheered on...
I for one appreciate your willingness to wait until the year plays out to judge the coaching and season. At the outset, everyone was "hoping" for 6-6 and better than that record with a decent bowl is very possible.
I will never be "anti-Ferentz", and I am waiting to see how the last 3 games go before I evaluate how I feel he did this season. I would be disappointed with 6-6, okay with 7-5, happy with 8-4. Overall, I am more upset with the nastiness and negativity of some of the "fans" on this site than I...
