Barta Extended!

[CyTwins]

I'm not following that. It is Pollard's job to try and sell tickets especially in these times. There is nothing wrong with that at all.

I think Pollard fully believes there will be 30k in attendance on Sept 5th

That's all fine and dandy, but I just don't see how you can think that 60K is really dangerous and 30K is safe. That makes zero sense to me, but then again a lot of this coronavirus stuff hasn't made much sense so who knows.

 

[TheBear]

I think there will be 30k at JTS and you will look like a complete tool for saying it was a marketing ploy

I would hope isu could sell 30,000 season tickets. The question is more around how safe is it for there to be 30,000 isu fans in JTS this fall?

I want to see what schools like Michigan, OSU, and schools in the SEC do. They will probably follow the Lake of the Ozarks policy.

That's shady as hell

This seems like an overreaction. It isnt like Iowa is revoking their seat buying privileges for 2021, they are just saying you may not get to sit in the exact seat that you had in 2019 while giving them credit in Iowa's point system for buying 2020 even if they didnt buy.

That's pretty bad

It seems like schools are always following Pollard's moves

I don't know of another AD that gets kicked out of JV basketball games and searches himself on Twitter.

You can not like him as a person but he's very good at his job. What Barta is doing with tickets is disgusting IMO

I don't really care how Iowa handles it as there is probably no perfecty way.

The way I understand it is if you are a current season ticket holder that chooses not to renew in 2020 but want to in 2021, Iowa is giving you your regular priority points for 2020 as if you bought season tickets but not guaranteeing your seats will be available in 2021.

Iowa is planning on a full stadium, so yeah right now if you don't renew you lose your spot, like always. If Iowa goes to a limited capacity plan, then things will change.

You are such a troll. Iowa is planning on a full capacity stadium. When things change, the plan will be amended.

If you don't feel comfortable buying season tickets this year in Iowa City you lose out on your seats no matter how long you've had them. That's incredibly shady

 

[Cat Stevens]

This coming from someone who never goes to games anyways....

No, Jeff is an extremely successful project manager that lives in New York. He flies into Iowa city for games(actually he didn’t get the airport connections right when he told this lie on the old hr rivals board, so you never know he probably doesn’t actually go to games).

This is a smart move for Iowa State. Pollard knows with the Iowa game in Iowa City this year, they probably weren’t going to sell out any games anyways. Pollard will have a justification for all the empty seats in Jack Trice now.

 

[TheBear]

No it isn’t. The only way a person would lose their seats is if Iowa does a re-seating process in 2021.

You're OK with what Barta is doing?

That is the policy every year. Iowa hasn't come out with a limited seating plan yet. When/if they have to, that will change. Barta didn't "do" anything with their policy yet, and neither have most AD's around the country.

Trolling job gets a C+

I thought it was deserving of at least a B-

CyTwins all worked up and knows absolutely nothing about how Iowa does it’s season tickets. With CyTwins and other clone fans the best strategy always is to shoot off their mouth without knowing any better.

What could go wrong?
