I wish I was able to find a way to sever or lessen the emotional attachment I have to ISU athletics. I am so tired of all the BS that comes with it. I am also emotionally attached to Indiana, and even the most recent crap with their basketball program is nothing compared to what us ISU fans endure year-in and year-out. Mostly because I know IU will recover quickly and be elite again. With ISU I am starting to see only more disappointment in the future. Once we get something to be encouraged about, something will come out of nowhere to rip our hearts out. I'm sick of it. What could possibly be the admin issues that would make Cael want to leave? And why wouldn't this be a wake-up call to make some changes to fix whatever that issue is? You know what though? It doesn't matter, because this would happen to us regardless - it is who we are.
Rant over, but seriously, if someone has a cure for being a die hard Cyclone fan, please pass it on.
