I wish they would have designed Hilton like this. jk
That would actually look badass every time it flooded. Like a giant ark!

I'm more disturbed they let Hawk fans into the military.
Gotta hit those recruiting quotas.
Not to beat a dead horse, but that sumbich needs kicked one more time.
I really don't understand why any institution with the funds would have a natural grass field. The modern turf looks better, plays better, maintains cheaper and easier and doesn't contribute to nearly loosing to a non-scholarship football program.
This would require going to school out of state since every school in Iowa is that and the whole state is small town culture including the 'metro' areas.
That's not a bad thing, just what you get no matter where you are.
My contribution:
During their playing days Hurl Beechum was more attractive than Fred Hoiberg.
Maybe. I'm speaking relatively, of course. We're all from Iowa, but the University of Iowa is not small-town culture. The Des Moines metro can be, but it depends. I went to a larger high school in the Des Moines area. I was shocked to find that cowboy boots were acceptable attire for many students at ISU. I'm not saying I was expecting NYC, but the volume of country bumpkins at ISU threw me off.
ISU is a big school. You can find your pocket. I was just surprised. But then again, it is an ag school. I let my loyalty to the sports team cloud my college choice.
No he didn't, Brick.

I've looked but never found any. I picture it being kind of like IU Assembly Hall. It looks like a giant pisser.Any interior drawings for this? I have never seen that rendering before.
They were 6-7 in 2012 and got absolutely punked by Tulsa in the bowl game, the same team they actually beat to open the season....they went 2-10, with a 63 point loss to Baylor and an absolute curb stomping by UNI. Color me a cynic but a string of 4 years of 5-7, 2 consecutive 6-7 campaigns and 2-10, doesn’t exactly show positive momentum.2013....I don't know if that was really the time anyway since ISU was at least .500 in 2012. It was and is easy to say he should have been let go earlier, but really it makes sense that 2015 was the last stance and the KSU game sealed the deal.
Who would have been available after the 2013 or 2014 seasons anyway? Mack Brown?

That 7-6 year was an outlier with a horrendous schedule sans Texas/Oklahoma and really only had two wins of note against a good team and an Eric Decker-less Minnesota squad in the bowl game....but for all of those great wins, it created almost negative momentum. Rhoads invented new ways each time to lose to kstate, got 66 put on him by Utah, lost to woebegone Kansas squads, uni, North Dakota state...After 2010, i was more than ready to see him off to Pitt and then after 2012, to Wisconsin...That's not a bad stretch for ISU's history.
You forgot to mention the 7-6 first season, and many wins that stuck out in those .500ish season that were very unusual for ISU, including OSU '11 etc. Pretty sure from 2010-12 fans were afraid he was going to leave due to those kinds of successes.
I'll meet in the middle and give it 2014 season though. That was brutal.
