How is looking to improve our chances next year whining?People complain about scheduling that have never had to put it together or coach against it. This yrs non con was set up to grow and gel the team. I remember plenty of complaining about how terrible we were when we lost games in those tournaments. The rewriting of history on here is pretty amazing.
TJ and Jamie put the schedule together they want and hope will work. I hope everybody whining has bought their tickets for Maui next yr.
What are you expecting a 1 seed next yr?How is looking to improve our chances next year whining?
Nah, those quad 4s are fairly normal.
What killed us was that our neutral site opponents all underperformed, iowa was down, and the big east sent us an anchor named depaul.
Yep, there's a reason that there is a bit of (fake) mystery to the process for both college football and college basketball. The mysterious part is where they put their thumbs on the scales to get the results that they want.
If we had michigan states resume are we in? No effin way.Committe can always find a reason within a couple seeds to justify what they do. The whole argument to me is crazy. People are upset we are overall 8th seed when we deserved higher. Why did this happen? Committee says noncon sos. Fans say dammit noncon sos should've been better. I say, you don't schedule for every 20 years when you have a chance to be a 1 seed you schedule for what happens most years. If we loaded up the non con, there will be some year where we have a good resume on the bubble and the committee will say not enough wins. And our fans will say our non con is too hard, schedule more MEAC teams...
You’re not getting tickets directly through ISU unless you’re a director level cyclone club member. Maybe you are.Would be happy to buy Maui tickets but the whole process is a mess. Call the ticket office they tell you to call the Cyclone Club. Call the Cyclone Club they tell you to call the travel agent. Call the travel agent they tell you to call ISU. Finally get sent a link to the site to buy tickets and it doesn’t work. Missed message from Cyclone Club and ticket office on whether you can buy tickets only or if you need to buy a travel package.
I don't even care about what quad Drake would be in, why are we scared of playing Drake and UNI? Yeah they'll bring their A game but so what? We should be prepared for that. I think playing in Des Moines every other year would be fun and it's not like we still wouldn't be the home team no matter where we play. If we lose to Drake then we probably deserve whatever that does to our resume. I just want to watch fun games against local "rivals" in the non-con.
To clarify I don't think the team is scared of playing Drake (some fans are I think?) they just don't want to play 50/50 home and away which I get but I also think playing at Drake is fun sometimes. Why the hell not.

Yeah it's a simple as not giving up a home game to either go to UNI or Drake or to the Well.I believe those decisions were more about finances than competition! How much more money ISU brings in hosting a non-con game vs going to UNI or Drake. Right? I would love to play both every year...as a fan those games are of more interest than some random school I have never heard of. But if we won't go there...they won't come to Ames. Gotta be a change in thinking from one of the sides I hope.
