Barnes Decision at 3:10 on Friday

[ChrisMWilliams]

Just got a release from Ames High School. The press conference will begin at 3 Friday afternoon at Ames High. ESPNU will begin their coverage with the big Harrison Barnes announcement at 3:10.

I'll be there reporting for CF.

Anyone gonna tailgate?

 

[Stewo]

Is it going to be streamed online anywhere? I don't have ESPNU at work.

 

[cyclonedave25]

Sorry if this has already been asked/discussed but.. Will this air live on ESPN360???

 

[cy2win]

Why don't they just move it over to Hilton? :wink:

 

[kkise]

I'm guess I'm not getting a lot done Friday afternoon. But that goes without saying.

 

[CYdTracked]

Friday night after the BB game in the RV lots wether Harrison is a Cyclone or not!

 

[mwitt]

Serious question -- will CF be down at all Friday? Will the server be able to handle the traffic? I was having problems after the Nebraska game.

 

[Stewo]

After reading the official press release, I'm thinking that it'll be streamed on the local stations websites. I may be wrong, but hopefully not.

We are actually switching to a dedicated server in the middle of the night tomorrow. We do not anticipate having any problems. Trust me, I've thought of this already. I appreciate your concern.

I've never followed recruiting all that much but I WILL be in front of a TV on Friday afternoon.

Who is this Barnes kid?

That never gets old....anyways, I still have hope to see HB in a Cyclones jersey next year

Chris, who are they letting in the door. Is this by invite only??

 

[kucyclone]

There will probably be a guy on phog.net that will stream it. I'll try to post more details on Friday morning or early afternoon for those at work or without ESPNU.

The release I got said the "public is invited."
That can only mean one thing to me: HB's coming here. No way they would do that if he was going somewhere else. No way.

That certainly is suspicious... Would be pretty ugly on National TV if his decision is met with boos.

I'm trying not to read to0 far into things, but this certainly can't be a bad thing...

 

[dualthreat]

i also think the public allowed entry is a good sign... but really means nothing..

Yeah - be honest: if you were a Duke, UNC, or KU fan, inviting the public of Ames to HB's presser cannot be good news to you!

That is kinda interesting, I know their will be a lot of Cyclones with fingers crossed for this thing since the situation of a #1 recruit being in Ames prolly won't happen again. I know NO ONE should boo this kid no matter his decision but you gotta think why would they open up the possibility of that?
