Root for the Conference?

None of the other 9 Big12 fanbases should root for Kansas.
Do you want KU to continue to always get superior recruits and always get to play in the BS ESPN preseason 4 team tourney with Kentucky, Duke and Michigan State?
No. No you do not.
Wichita State over KU last year was a thing of beauty.
 
Root for everyone in the conference besides WVU. I will never root for that thug brand of basketball.

Normally I throw KU in there too but I really appreciate them this year. They're fun to watch and they really dont have a player that I love to hate this year.
 
Dumb. Root for the conference.

Exactly I root for the conference including kansas. I'm sick of hearing, "of the b12 is so tough why don't they do anything in the tournament. " When in all reality they are b10 fans who get about 3 easy games between every big one compared to the gauntlet in the b12
 
I always root for the conference schools outside of conference play. The conference doing well out of conference and in tournaments help promote the strength of the conference in that sport, which will help recruiting, media time, ranking, etc., which will then help ISU.

As for KU hate, other than what was mentioned above, they'll always get the recruits being a blue blood. The way to knock them down is to start winning the league and doing better in the tournament. ISU blew their chances in the last few years.
 
Meh, it will always be East Coast > Big 10 > Big 12, Kansas at the top, it's what everyone knows. Meanwhile, we just keep beating everyone.

Mind our own store, and the accolades will come. Crap the bed like last year, and everyone picks you as an upset special. It is what it is.

Meanwhile, we still beat Iowa (and Illinois, too, HawkFan!), Kansas, Oklahoma. Also a lot of other teams in the tourny. Doesn't matter what anyone else does.
 
Annual B12 choke job is under way. If we keep winning I won't lose too much sleep though.
 
I think I'm going to stop cheering for the conference. I prefer to root for winners.
 
conference can suck it. I went to Iowa State and I root for Iowa State, screw everybody else. The conference pride garbage is for Hawkeye fan losers wanting to ride the coat tails of the better teams than them in the B1G.
