    If anyone picks any school other than ISU, they are nothing but a hypocrite!

    Have you ever been to the USC campus?

    I just don't see why anyone would want to live in such a slumy area.

    Why? Seriously, I want to know why would a person be a hypocrite if they did not choose ISU?

    I am a Cyclone! But, if I was the number #1 player in a sport and had the opportunity to choose from ANY college in the country, I would choose one that gave me the best opportunity to continue my playing to the next level and I am sorry to say, but ISU is not that school currently.

    So, I guess I am a hypocrite!

    Re: College Choice

    For basketball, it would be:

    1) ISU (although out of HS I wouldn't have said that)
    2) DePaul (I know they are horrible now)
    3) Illinois
    Not sure after that, but maybe
    4) Indiana (maybe in the Bob Knight era)
    5) Duke (I hate them, but I would play for Coach K)

    I am in a Architectural field Therefor my main concern would be education. Now of all the schools that have engineering? Well my family all went to the Big 8/ 12 schools. So that knocks off the Big 10. Now that Leaves me with the University of Colorado ranked 39th, Does that suite me? No .The second best school in the big 12 would be Iowa State. Now since I have all the colors for that school its and its ranked #41 for engineering.

    I would assume I would go to Iowa State.

    Re: College Choice

    I think right now I would want to go to Indiana. Instant playing time, center of the team, a team that can only go up, a program with history, and I love Tom Crean and the intensity he coaches with.

    Re: College Choice

    if i answered this question now (as an ISU fan) i would pick ISU #1. I would want to go here because i would have the chance to be remembered as one of the greats ever and get a jersey up in the rafters as opposed to going to a powerhouse and just being another guy

    If you have a problem - if no one else can help - and if you can find
    them - maybe you can hire: The A-Team.
