Personally, my favorite part is that the writer just paraphrased the Weatherwax quote in the first paragraph, then presented the Weatherwax quote that he just paraphrased in the second paragraph.

Hey Havs when is a realistic timeline for anything happening to JTS?

My guess would be 3-4 years. The stadium is going to be sold out for every game this season, but I doubt anything will happen unless it is full for a couple more seasons. Iowa State has a good number of donors, but the project needs one "big" donor to truly catapult the movement for expansion. Paul needs to win more or that donor won't come forward. I realize the general consensus of fans on this board is that overall capacity is an archaic way of measuring success, but when there is a stadium as bad acoustically as Jack Trice, it really needs that endzone bowled in with fans in the new seats.

Then I guess the question you have to ask yourself is:  What can brown do for you?


Love this guy. He needs to make an appearance at the end of a heartbreaking loss IN JT this season and beat the living crap out of Mike Gundy

“When I was 23 I decided it was too difficult to go to Iowa City, so a friend of mine and I decided to go to Iowa State games,” Mel said.  “I started going in 1973 and immediately felt like we had much more in common with ISU fans.”


I love these quotes...possible things in common:

Closer proximity
Too lazy to become Iowa fans
Love for McDonald's color scheme
Mold connoisseur
Etc.


What the hell does this even mean......buggy wheels were missing a spoke? Was the Interstate covered with water??

It still baffles me that Lew Perkins had the audacity to outfit his athletes in Adidas garbage and still go after Mangino for abuse. Like anything Mangino did could have been worse . . .

I would cry if I could only play for the KU football team. It's like letting your highschool coaches down.

The uniform designs are garbage, but MadCat can get a sweet discount on Adidas Group merchandise.  :cry:

The NFL has left Reebok as well, so Adidas is dead to me.

How does ku fan know how much K-State gets paid.

K-State has a new contract with Nike and Nike doesn't allow its client schools to disclose the terms of their contracts anymore.

Plus resident ku fans don't understand the difference between contract value and cash payout.   The shoe companies value their contracts at the full amount of the equipment and the cash, and the equipment is typically valued at full MSRP.

I knew the subject of this thread changed to KU when I saw Dax was the most recent post.

Carry on.

Yeah, hasn't Beems taken a beating on this talking point already? Why does he always come back for more abuse? Maybe he has brain damage which affects his memory...Ts and Ps.
