I believe that Michigan also said that they will not come back, that they made a mistake scheduling a game in Hilton.
New Schedule - Season Prediction Time!!!

Is this really happening, that we have someone pushing that Phog Allen isn't a dominant home court advantage?
I'm no lover of Kansas, but that place is a house of horrors for visiting teams. The noise and environment in the game I attended there was more intense than a game in Hilton, and we're plenty intense.

Iowa State is FAR more talented than Iowa. That doesn't mean we can't lose, but the players we are bringing back from last years team, along with our new guys, replace Kane and Ejim much better than Iowa can. I think this is the year we get one back at Phog!
When was the last game you attended at Allen Field House? Bill Self has been at KU for 11 seasons and has a home record of 145-7. Let that sink in for a while. In the last seven years they have lost three home games; one to SDSU who was a #4 seed in the tourney that year, one to Okie State who was a #5 seed in the tourney that year and one to Texas 12 hours after Thomas Robinson learned that his mother died of a heart attack and the entire team was up all night consoling him. That's it. I admire your fandom and agree that Hilton is an excellent home court advantage but don't drive off the cliff to make your point.

I'm more afraid of the referees in PA than the crowd or or the way KU plays there or PA itself. One thing I will give Self and KU credit for is that they are killers when they get calls to start going their way. While the other team is still ******** about the last two poor calls KU has run the lead out from a tie to +10. They do that faster and more effectively than anyone.
And we have pictures of Kansas fans in Hilton with their fingers in their ears. I would thnk that they would be used to loud.

You're not thinking enough. Noise is noise anywhere, which would moot your crazy idea.
Also, many Kansas fans travel because they can't get into Phog Allen. Getting a ticket there ain't easy.

Beilein actually did say something like it in a press conference, but it was in reference to keeping the game when Trey Burke was gone or something like that. It was never one of those "Oh, it's too hard a place to play" comments.
Quasi-related, we picked out or season ticket seats yesterday. The season is almost here, people!!! Man, it's been a long summer already.
I've gone to the last 4 ISU games at PA and never had problems getting tickets
