If you aren't you should be because most people are under the assumption you are since you hired an AAU coach and pay him a **** ton of money. I am not saying you cheat. I am just saying it is suspicious.

So you are 100% sure of that, not saying you are not but you better be carefull of what you say.

Our team's performance is embarrassing enough. Now the people on this message board are sinking to an even lower level by labeling other team's coaches as cheaters with nothing to back up their allegations. I'd say that we have a very angry fan base to stoop to this level.
Who cares? Wrestling isn't that big of a deal outside of Iowa. Get over it. And yes, I know K-State doesn't have a wrestling team. I thought you'd rather get told to shut up by an ISU fan than a KSU fan.
I think that some of the posts on here were made with the intentions of driving away KSU people. I know one of mine was. That doesn't work though.
IMO if you come on our board, you should expect the worst. This is why I don't go on other teams boards. I don't see a reason for it.
Actually, ISU HAS beaten KU some in the past 10 years, including a few wins in AFH. Not in the past few years though.
I do think that Martin is a little shady, but probably only slightly shadier than Floyd or Eustachy. I'd take that in a heartbeat. I don't buy all the holier-than-thou attitude among some ISU fans. You didn't see many people complaining when Floyd was winning. Either way, I'm not sure why you guys are over here picking fights. ISU fans have been beaten down enough that we don't have any fight left.
To me, if you're not pushing the limits of the rules, you aren't trying. And I doubt that ISU is going to give us our ticket money back for losing basketball while "doing everything right".
Good post. How many times have we beaten Kansas in Ames? How many for KSU? Hmmmmmm........they aren't even our rival. KSu has more "tradition" as pointed out above. How do we beat them at home more than you guys?
Good point. I just don't like it when people bring up irrelevant points like this. I agree with you on opposing fans coming on our site though.
Could be. K-State goes from being completely irrelevant for years and all of a sudden they are getting the best recruits in the nation. But who knows.
Not surprising. Some ISU fans here bash probably our best coach ever, Tim Floyd for cheating too.
*Remember folks, he wasn't caught, he had a shady accusation at USC*
I believe that is a Bill Fennely-ism, if I'm not mistaken.
Definitely applicable to the men, though... Game in and game out they take far fewer shots than the opponents.
You're right. There's no reason to talk sports with a conference opponent. Duly noted for future reference.
ISU fans need to simmer down. Many of you are acting like 11 year olds. Well I guess some probably are.
It's funny how a lot of ISU fans will talk smack to another program, telling them they have no tradition, when our very own tradition is thin at best compared to a lot of others. We're Iowa State. We're not Kansas, Duke, North Carolina, Syracuse, Arizona, etc.... :no:
Why did you edit my post for grammar? It was perferctly fine. You are the one that used the wrong gammar. :biglaugh:
For those saying KSU has no basketball tradition, you are ********, as catsdo pointed out.
I hate K-State with every part of my being - but we're absolutely gonna get worked tomorrow. K-State should just foul us like crazy because we can't make our free-throws and don't like contact.
The win would be the K-State players, coaches and fans all get explosive diarrhea on the way up and get stranded alongside the road.

I am very confident that we are not cheating. It may look like it to you guys since we have Dalonte Hill, but I would be shocked if the NCAA finds anything that shows we are cheating.
I have to agree here. They aren't cheating. KSU is using every loophole out there to bring in the best recruits. That isn't cheating. It is using the gray area of the rules to gain an advantage. All schools do it. Except ISU. And guess what? We are getting left behind. Unless the NCAA explicitly bans the practices that are being used, we should use them too.
This is very similar to the Phil Michelson controversy over the past week or so. Is Phil cheating? I say "no". The rule is the rule. He is using a loophole. All other players are welcome to do the same. The only ones who say he is cheating are those who weren't smart enough to do the same.
KU has lost 7 home games since the start of the big 12 to other big 12 teams. 3 of the 7 losses have been to ISU. Plus KU has only had one 5 game losing streak to a team in the last 50 years and that is also ISU. When it comes to beating KU ISU has held their own just as well if not better then the rest of the big 12.
