    CF/HN Podcast: Jon Miller on the CyHawk game

    I would like to see them schedule UNI and Drake in Iowa City, each year, and share some gate with them akin to what those schools made in DSM.

    Nah, didn't say that. 'This is show business' is akin to saying, 'it's entertainment'. I said 'it's show biz'.

    CF/HN Podcast: Jon Miller on the CyHawk game

    Well, I wouldn't go that far yet ;) I have MSU, MN, Purdue and NW ahead of Iowa...then I see Iowa, Maryland and Michigan and MAYBE Wisconsin in the next pool. The gap between 5th and 8th just is not that big, and will be determined by health....so I am probably going to go with Iowa at 5th...

    CF/HN Podcast: Jon Miller on the CyHawk game

    It will be interesting to see....I listen to a lot of podcasts during my commute. I read all of the articles from the media....and then I see the Big Ten media picks Iowa 8th....and I think, 'are we (in state people, who are most familiar with what Iowa has) being too myopic? Not objective?'...

    This is on the mark...BUT...the older I get, the more I dislike 'the character' or the notion of playing him. He's not retired yet, but getting there.

    CF/HN Podcast: Jon Miller on the CyHawk game

    Hey all, damn I missed all the fun last month! For all the people who think I am douche bag, dumbass, condescending whatever adjective you want to throw out here...I get it. I have certainly been that in the past, and at times, still can enjoy having some fun with that, such as the start of...

    Big Ten about to get paid

    Nah, not really. I'm pretty sure you'd pay $5 per month to watch every Iowa State football and basketball game.

    Big Ten about to get paid

    The Big Ten has always pooled revenues..and in doing so, it has helped them all immensely. Probably only Ohio State would have the opportunity to out perform current revenues on their own...then again, look at the Longhorn Network.

    Big Ten about to get paid

    I doubt they are all that concerned with 'validation'. I would suspect they are focusing more on the financial solvency this deal, and the other half of it, provides them for the next six years, with an out to re-up at higher values if the landscape is the same, but they also have their own...

    Big Ten about to get paid

    I'd wager there are 20M big ten fans who would pay $5/mo, 8 mos out of the year, for access to ala carte Big Ten Network...if the traditional cable/satellite monopoly goes away, the Big Ten would roll up all the games on their own network. That works out to be around 55 to 60M dollars per year...

    Tyler Sash has died

    I can understand most all of the sentiments expressed here on both sides. One thing I wanted to come here and say, is that I find it incredibly classy of Iowa State to hold the moment of silence. Classy isn't even the right word for it. This week has really had me examining a lot of the...
