It's almost the same as the old saying that any press is good press.Screw the media, screw ESPN. This isn't about them. This is about Iowa's students becoming part of the program again. They can criticize it all they want, because in the end, they don't matter. All that matters are the players, the coaches and the fan base finally getting on the same page and supporting each other.

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!
All the crap you've given me about my posts? Are you an idiot?? I do believe this is one of the all time stupid posts ever! I don't believe you've ever played basketball. I don't believe you ever watched a basketball game! Keep you stupid drunken grunts to yourself! Seriously!!
Please, this thread is about stormin' the court only.
**** ESPN.
Beat Shane to it.....
It would be impossible to agree more.....
Been trying to get the students back into the game for years, this is how it begins.....
Storming should be banned. It's dangerous for fans and players. Especially players...because really, who cares about the fans.
However, it does pretty much guarantee you an appearance in the SC intro.
I could care less what the media or anyone else thinks. I like the idea of Iowa fans going onto the court after a game...in both football and bb. I think the players like it and I believe it connects Iowa fans with the teams. I don't think it is a bad tradition at all. If others don't like it, thats their problem I would say.
In football, I wouldn't even call it rushing the field but more of just going onto the field at the end of the game "because they do it all the time." Iowa fans just enjoy going onto the field (and court) after a game. People and the media can say what they want...
That guy looks way more capable than the CHA "security."

Dolph was talking about a security guard that got knocked down and was limping pretty badly during the post game yesterday. Wouldn't bother me if the banned court storming.
