Possibly. The TCU game this year was because we let them show our game last year on a Fox Sports channel. I could see us maybe doing a Cyclones.TV/Longhorn network exchange with Texas at some point but I don't think they will be a regular thing.

What do you think of Buddy's 7,600+ posts in a year and one half on a rival site. Now that's sad!

How is it a good thing for a “big time” basketball program to have a conference game on CycloneTV?
Article from today:

Like Wisconsin, the in-state Hawkeyes are a big player in Carton's recruitment. A strong relationship with Fran McCaffery, as well as 2018 signee Joe Wieskamp and 2019 commit Patrick McCaffery, are also working in Iowa's favor.
"I have a lot of people at my school who are big Iowa fans, so there's a draw to stay home," Carton said. "I've kind of been watching them growing up - not as a fan, but just watching them a lot. It would mean something to rep your home state and I feel like I have a strong relationship with coach McCaffery and his staff, just like I do with Wisconsin. It's a similar relationship.
"I've known them (Wieskamp and McCaffery) since I was in fifth grade and I've talked to them a lot. They are some of my good friends and we get along very well. So that's something that I do think about."
There is other smoke on a pay board from today that Iowa is in good shape with Carton.

How is having a good relationship with a coach who's on the hot seat a positive?
To paraphrase Kakert said "people are saying Iowa is right in the mix for him"
I thought you said there is no way Fran gets fired after next season? Doesn't sound like someone on the hot seat.
