So he was the one that convinced all of those Iowa folks to retire in AZ. I knew it had to be more than the weather.
Culver to lend a fat hand

Iowa isn't in ISU's situation. Iowa is right where it's been for over 100 years, in the Big Ten. And ISU is on the outside and being overlooked for a reason. Yet another clown escaping reality by ignoring the facts.

Maybe ISU should get to a major bowl game or at least sell out a stadium on a consistent basis, besides when Iowa or Nebraska come to town. Heck, even win a conference championship of some sort and maybe they'd be considered.
However, there is no tradition at ISU, even your football coach Paul Rhodes was "quoted" saying that when he was hired. Guessing that might not have been the best thing to say now, huh?
So now ISU4LYF, get some facts, and stop calling Iowa the fat girl. Your ignorance (along with the other Clone homers) is the main reason why Barta will not even attempt to get ISU into the Big Ten, no matter what the courts try to tell them to do.
Have fun on your camping trips to the Mountain West Conference!

Sad part is ISU has played and won more bowl games than ND since the early 90's, did you read the CR Gazette the other day? ISU has as many conference titles as Iowa since 1985, Iowa's are shared titles in football, ISU's are in basketball.

Not true. We need to rearrange things to make room for our new Wrestling National Championship trophy

Yes ISU4LYF, I read the article. However, the basketball titles were almost 10 years ago. Out of sight, out of mind..?
Also, since the state has told both ISU and UNI that state funds will no longer be available and budget cuts to athletic programs need to be made, the Big 10 will not allow any team into the conference with the chance of programs being cut.
The $ that Iowa's athletic department makes (1 of 7 self-funded institutions in the country the past 5 years I believe - Jon knows that stat for sure as I cannot find the article at the moment) compared to ISU's is not even close. It is almost triple the amount of ISU's and that is with Carver being at about 40% capacity. The ceiling for the revenue that Iowa will hit has not yet been reached since the inception of the Big Ten Network and the networks added revenue.
The Big 10 gains nothing with the addition of ISU, no matter how many "friends" in the Big 10 ISU may supposedly have. TV viewership is very important and the Big Ten Network already has this state.
Again, it's not a good thing that Big 12 is breaking up, but for the longest time the Big 10 was looked down at by ISU fan's and now they want in.
Sorry.

This thread needs to go the rivalry forum. Culver can "advocate" for ISU for the Big Ten, but don't call Gary Barta. Call Jim Delaney he is the guy with the power. I'm sure Jim would say Governor who? It takes 8 yes votes to be invited as a member. So even if Iowa voted no for all potential members it won't matter. Think about this, if Nebraska and Missouri are already in the fold it is too late to advocate.
I hope the doofus isn't so dumb to threaten to pull Iowa out of the Big Ten and create an even bigger mess. On second thought he is that dumb.

"a little" LIar liar pants on fire!!!!! Jamie pollard is working his A$$ off! You bet he is, updating that resume.
I find great satisfaction in your anguish. Fortunately for "real" cyclone fans I feel a bit sorry...but then again I think about you...who I hope cries for a year when it all collapses. No make that Two years. Take up fishing pal...your gotta have somthing to do in the fall. Cause there is no way I want you a hawk fan when you don't have anywhere else to turn.

Am i not understanding the question? You said ISU has as many conference titles as Iowa? Including both football and bball iowa has had 6 total championships 2 in bball and 4 in football. ISU has had 2 confernce reg season wins and 2 confrence tourney wins. So how is that the same as Iowa?

Much ado about nothing. Showing support to an college institution regardless of how plausible or practical of them making the B10 is nothing more than a political move. He could cure cancer and everyone would be up in arms about putting hospitals out of business. I'm not a Culver backer by any means, but the comments on here are comical.
