I grew up an Iowa fan and went to Iowa State. You have a problem with that?
I mean if you get hired as the ISU guy on a radio show and it becomes painfully evident you’re more of a hawk fan, yeah I would. I was a hawk fan through my junior year in HS.

I think Murphy has you fooled
I think both Murph and Andy like Kirk Ferentz quite a bit for him coming on their show a lot. Also, I think they show slight favoritism towards Iowa coverage just because Iowa fans are a larger demographic in the state... for now....

Yeah I don't think Murph dislikes ISU but do think he leans more towards Iowa. Some of that may be due to I think a kid or two of his went to Iowa to school.

Andy is a Drake fan first but do think when it is between ISU & Iowa that he does lean towards the Cyclones.
His wife went to Iowa State

If a kxno host says anything remotely positive about Iowa State, I doubt he or she means it

Gonna piss off Frank and Luka. Funny how I never see them promoting our guys though.

Would think at this point it has to be a health or family issue.

Stanz said earlier in here that it isn't related to that but it's not his place to comment on what the issue is.

Crazy to think that close relationship Sean and Heather had in the mornings was all a facade.

I have really liked Sean taking over on the drive. He digs into sports more than any other show.

*Besides Miller and Condin
It was unfortunate then, that during my drive home on Friday, they spent it talking about their top 5 Pixar movies.

Miller and Condon has become a sports gambling talk show. They focus more on betting lines than they do what actually happens during the game.

Wow, interesting. Wouldn't be the first time in the radio business though where it seems like the hosts get along but in reality they hate each other.

Well Sipker does the same thing but doesn’t try to hide it at all.

I disagree. I just think Sipker isn't a Hawk hater.


No. I’m just saying I’ve never gotten the feeling that she’s much of an Iowa State fan.

I've always got the sense she is true ISU, but just doesn't bag on the Hawks.

I will say this, in almost all instances the “Iowa State” person on kxno is always very fair to Iowa and watches the Iowa games so they can discuss it intelligently. The “Iowa” person almost never watched the Iowa State games. It happened with Chris and Ross. I think it’ll be the same with Chris and Hassel.

Mostly true. It does drive me nuts when Hawk hosts sidetrack ISU guest, but for the most part I feel Ross and Downs are quite fair to ISU except during one week a year.
