Actually, the site does have at least one flaw. I wish they would fix this (and I might even contact them about it):

Despite it's modest football success, Iowa State is sought out for it's traveling fanbase.

its

If a site is going to tout academics, it would help to get that right, especially if they use a word like "matriculated."

Re: ISU to Big 10 website

That's why I'm reluctant to contribute.

No worries. Chuck is on high stress about big10. He just asked me if I wanted to drive down to the Big 10 offices to kidnap Delaney.

I've only looked through the first page so I don't know if this has been mentioned but Iowa State got like 22nd in the Directors Cup. I believe all Big 10 teams were in the to 70 or so. Big 10 has said they would like to get schools that are in that region. I will try and find link.

heres an ESPN article on it

heres the updated standings

I couldn't get to the complete standings for some reason but it looks like all Big 10 schools except Iowa are in the top 50 and ISU is at 31st.

I like the site. However the Big 10 does not care if we bring competitive sports. They only care if we bring dollars. Right now we don't.

Yeah, we don't bring the same TV sets or personal athletic budget that either Mizzou or UNL does. However, as an ACADEMIC UNIVERSITY, we bring in much more money in research grants than either of those two schools. Also, $$ earned in academics (research grants, etc.) absolutely DWARFS athletic money. So if it's about bringing the cash to the Big Ten, ISU not being included is a travesty.

Re: www.isutobig10.com

some ******* was on here earlier today talking about it. It is a joke if whomever put that up thinks that is going to happen.
