***Big 12 MBB Media Day***

[Cyhart]

Thanks for the kind words. We couldn't do it without all of our awesome sponsors like Wilson Toyota who allow us to cover events like this.

Also, some awesome people own CF. It is so great to work for people who let you do your job. I think that we are building something pretty special here and we'll keep working our butts off for all of you.

To be honest, I am really glad that I went because Iowa State deserves the coverage. CF and the Des Moines Register were the only ISU media outlets there today. You have newspapers fly in all of the way from towns like Lubbock and College Station but ISU only has 2 media outlets in KC, which is 3 hours away. I get that the economy is rough and the last thing I'll do is blame our local beat writers, radio people, etc...They have NO control over it and I'm sure they would have been there if they could have. This business is hurting in a bad way right now and I have sympathy for that. For instance, I wasn't down in Dallas for football stuff last summer. I wanted to be there but it wasn't in the cards at the time. Because of great sponsors like Wilson Toyota, etc., we are able to go do things like this*and bring you Iowa State content for FREE.

I REALLY wish that I could have covered the women yesterday but couldn't get down there until today. I admittedly dropped the ball on that one.

Wow! I cant believe that.
You do a hell of a job Chris. We all appreciate it! I have no doubt that good things will come your way!

P.s. I will always choose a CF sponsor over a non-CF sponsor if I'm in the market for one of those products.
