Good morning I State!!! We have a huge surprise for all ISU students and alumni we will release the info sometime this weekend! Stay tuned!!


Interesting that he said "all ISU students and Alumni" and not "all ISU fans"
 
Don't they slap in new pieces all over the country for the NCAA Tournament?

No, I don't believe so. For the final four they always have a brand new floor made. For the opening weekend and regionals they affix stickers to the floor. If they can't cover up logos with a reasonable number and size of stickers they have to have a new floor too. I suppose they could do a sticker for Johnny, but I think that would be really cheesy - why not wait until they can actually unveil it painted on the floor?

Does anyone know if the NCAA generally allows stickers on the floor? I don't think they do except their own or for exempted tournaments.

NCAA tournament floors travel to many games

Guys, I just got off the phone with JP. News is indeed big.

Turns out, an unnamed poster at CF will be at the Baylor game to make any arrests requested by other CF posters!
 
I am pretty familiar with these courts. I have put together several different ones hundreds of times. I would be very surprised if they did this on the playing surface without the pieces being sealed while together. You don't want variation - even small variations in the level of the surface. Even a small lip from one to the other would result in a trip hazard at basketball speed. I suppose they could sand out the variation once it is put together, but it still isn't as easy as just slapping an alternate piece in. Besides, sanding that sealant would probably result in a hazy spot on the floor. If it was just going out of bounds they might have a little more leeway, but they are still pretty critical as it is still considered the playing surface.

I could be wrong but I just can't see them doing that midseason.

What the hell are you talking about? I refinished a door once, and it only took like an hour to strip/stain/seal. This is practically the same thing.

Could be one of the following..........

1. Free RW jersies to the first 5,000 for the BU game. Would actually be kind cool.

2. Nadas playing an outdoor free beer concert between Hilton and CY Stephens after the BU game. I am not cool enough to know who that is, but count me in.

3.Alterations to the parking lots to allow for faster exits so fans don't leave 20 min early. Wouldn't help. Sorry...

4.BU game will be shown on the jumbotron at JTS Might be cool, but no thanks.

5.Giving away a car at halftime every home game next season As long as Tron is on the court.

6.All student and alumni tickets for next season will be 1/2 price. HAHA, funny guy. :jimlad:
7.Phog Allen Field House burnned down Would be too sad to actually think about.

8.Tom Osborn to present at ISU the fact that Neb really does suck I got nothing, make it happen JP.

9.Doug Gotlieb will finally give ISU some street cred See 6.

10. Pep-Band will be doubling in size for next season. Sounds good.
 
I believe next year marks the 100th Homecoming at Iowa State... which I can see relating to "students and alumni" so maybe it has something to do with that. Would make more sense to be related to football though if that were the case.
