Time for a Real Discussion About Caitlin Clark

Sure, there are still some of those primo verified resale tix/seats available, right now listed at $1,300+fees. Will just keep an eye on if they sell or not, and if so, what they sell for. Should be fun.
The tickets selling in the $200-$300 ranges are people with tickets wanting to take advantage of the market and make some profit.
The tickets listed well above selling prices are people with tickets who want to, and have every intention, of attending the game, however would be willing to let someone else go for that price. They don't want to sell, but they will for enough dollars.
I have a can of Diet Coke in front of me. I plan to drink it. I don't really want to sell it. But if someone offered me $100 for it, I will. Doesn't mean cans of Diet Coke are going for $100.
I’ll double down on this:
Let’s pretend for sake of argument CC was just an average big 10 women’s basketball player. But she still has the same childish behavior on the court, lashing out on a seemingly regular occurrence. Would fans view these outburst as being inappropriate? I’m guessing the answer is yes.
And if that answer is indeed “yes,” yet they view CC actions as just being “competitive,” wouldn’t that suggest the same behavior is only tolerated because of the player’s talent?
That seems to be the prerogative some Iowa fans have here anyway.
Does it sicken you when coach Campbell absolutely unloads on the refs? That happens almost every game as well.
Not as much as a player going irate at officials. Part of the coaches job is to work the officials. Sometimes a coach will go crazy at official to try to light a spark on their team.
But I don’t believe CMC has ever gone irate when his team has a healthy lead heading into the final quarter
Well you come here and say hok fans don’t do it, say ISU forums need to do better and treat your CC better etc….but yet we see the chatter on Iowa forums? I’m shocked you think this way
Good to know that Fran is just working the officials and trying to light a spark under his team
Yep, Fran is the best coach in the B1G, Iowa should lock him up with another 7-8 year contract extension.
I don’t know why they wouldn’t?! Winningest coach in iowa basketball history!
You think Fran isn’t working officials? Most coaches do. One of the best was Huggins. Huggins basically didn’t do much during a game except work the officials.
Some coaches are more animated than others. Fran takes it to a next level. And yes, I think there are times Fran, CMC, or any coach will get irate to try to light a fire in their team. Coaches usually do this earlier in the game if they feel their team is playing with little energy.
But even Fran doesn’t go bonkers when his team is up 22 with 13 minutes to play.

The ticket prices are inflated, but not to these levels. I have a friend with five EIU WBB season tickets - he, his daughter, her husband and their two elementary school aged sons attend. The kids can’t do the late week night games because they live an hour away and have school. I was a guest for Kansas State and there were many empty seats in our section. They’ve been selling them at $50 / seat with no problem. So people definitely want to see CC play, but the prices are greatly exaggerated! I would never pay to see an EIU sporting event that didn’t involve ISU and that includes if Nile Kinnick himself were reincarnated! Huck the Fawks!
It is no more misleading than an article with the title “You can get tickets to see Caitlin Clark for $3.00”.
I can’t believe how many Hawk trolls live here
But yet they post about why we should speak more highly of them and be better. Like gtfo
