Sorry can't hear you over my fandom

That is fantastic commitment, even if it makes me a little squeamish;-)

Will help the football team too. Big recruiting weekend!

In the release says they'll tape the evening show @ 10am. That must be new this year, in years past I recall they do evening show live on the court while teams are warming up. Not sure how you can show highlights of games that haven't happened yet @ 10am.

You read it wrong, it does not say that. Bad sentence structure in the release.

Awesome news for the Cyclones! That is going to be really cool.

Question: does Gameday set up a desk to broadcast from during halftime and pregame? Will they be in one of the four corners in the arena circle, for example? That would be very cool if so.

Edit: Or, does the Gameday cast simply broadcast from the floor during the morning hours and then pregame they broadcast somewhere else? Just trying to imagine the logistics.

For actual Game Day, they have a desk. For pregame/halftime, I think they use director chairs for easy on/off the court.

Do you how much I would have to make up for missing a whole week of school? And I'm going to miss 3 days of school for the big 12 tourney but a week is too much.

OK, but don't come crying to us when your big interview is with a Clone alumni who turns his back in disgust when he hears you say this.

Thanks for the info. Too bad they don't actually build a set in the corner. That would be very neat.

It says doors open to the public so it sounds like anyone can show up. Let's fill the place!

Don't think that's gonna be a problem at Hilton. How pathetic was the turn out for the Tx vs OU game?

OIC it now. Few other people on twitter were tweeting about what the "10 am CT on ESPN with an evening edition" meant.

Show 1) 9am ESPNU
Show 2) 10am ESPN
Show 3)Evening show before game (7pm more than likely)

if the student section could somehow dress in these duds and pull off a few of these moves, that would be golden. And goddamn watching these things will never, ever get old.

Not gonna lie, I just browsed eBay for a track suit. Couldn't find any that would fit.

I did order a couple headbands here though :spinny:

Hilton better take it to another level. We will never see GameDay for football, so this might be our only chance to be on the big stage.

This. I wonder if there is a limit to the amount of people that they allow in. I think if there is no limit there could easily be around 8,000.

 

[bigdaddykane]

I think it will be section 109-114 and 208-215 if needed.

 

[cyclones12321]

Should be awesome atmosphere

you can get some read sweatshirts/Pants for pretty cheap at Kohl's. No velour touch though unless you wear women's. Target didn't list any red ones.

I love all the people crying because ESPN picked us over Louisville/Duke. They think it won't be a good game.

Do you have a link I would like to see this.

It's not a lot of people. Just a few tweets. But that game wasn't even an option because the gametime for that was fixed and ours wasn't until now.
