I am proud of the CF community

After Loss To Kansas, Angry Iowa State Fan Rushes Court, Tries To Confront Bill Self

And ISU students tweeting racial slurs at Elijah Johnson and wishing him dead.

Sure, it could have gotten ugly.

Roles reversed and it was Iowa, hawk fans would have been ******* on the refs on their way off the floor..but we both know Iowa has a ways to go before they beat any top team or come close to that matter.

There's a difference between "rushing the court" & stepping 4-5 feet away from your seat..

& the tweets didn't happen in Hilton, which is what the post you replied to was referring to. But you're right, even we can't control every single fan of our school that has a Twitter account. Every single poster here has said those tweets were idiotic, disrespectful, & way out of line. Go ahead, troll on.

I agree with the OP. For the most part, the actual CF community was great. Most if the issues came from trolls/peeps who normally aren't on our site. Our "regulars" are fantastic. Sure, some of you toe the line every once in a while but that's okay. You're passionate, which is why we're still in business. That's why this site exists, for you to write/read about your favorite team.

We did have a long night and I thank all of our mods for helping out the way that they did. I was up moderating until around 4 a.m. But other than the ref's number getting posted (which we took care of ASAP), most of what went down was typical message board stuff that just comes with the territory.

Site traffic was insane yesterday. Just insane. Had roughly 5 K more unique's than on a normal high traffic day.

according to the kansas forum, the older ISU fan "TOOK A SWING" at bill self. what a joke. anyone know who the old guy is though? i wouldnt ask for his name to be posted, but if anyone knows him personally tell him he is the man!!!

That's just because we have so much experience getting hosed, that we've become really good at dealing with it.

His name has been posted here, and he is a big donor apparently. Just seemed like an over excited cop than an over excited fan.

Yes I agree, which is why I included moderators in my post - but I should have been more specific. The moderators worked their arses off and did a great job. Thank you!
