His “career” (whatever that is? Being a crappy voice over guy?) kind of depends on it.
He freely admits he’s a hok. Type of guy I hated while at ISU. Hopefully he wore his hok garb and got his ass kicked regularly.
I’ve only heard Siepker say he was a Hawk as a kid. He seems invested in both, and was mad after the ISU/Illinois game.
It blows my mind this can happen in basketball. (as someone who grew up an Iowa fan and whose family still is)
We're talking a full quarter century now where ISU is just clearly on a different level, how can you not just be a fan of the college you went to? Maybe if someone is from Iowa City and moved back, otherwise it's just pure insanity.
This is where I'm at too. I watched ISU wbb some as a student 20+ years ago then watched more and more the past three years, in part because it's getting easier to follow with ESPN+, Varsity App etc.
I have closely watched the NBA for 35 years and studied some of the historical players from before that. It's the only sport I think I'd even be sure of myself making a claim of who is the greatest. Even college mens basketball I don't know enough to claim who the greatest is, because I tend to lock in on just my team and ignore the rest of it.
It gets tricky trying to measure individual stats, winning, competition level and support from players/coaches on the team. I see a lot of Gen Z NBA fans who have built up this myth that Jordan only played on loaded All-Star teams that would have dominated without him. With one or two exceptions MJ's teammates became famous the same way Gabby Marshall is really famous right now.
Siepker did the big Nile Kinnick movie, which is totally fine, and has been making money off Hawk fans. I think he practices the age old mantra of not sh!thing where he eats.
I think he grew up a Hawk fan and went to Iowa State. Much like Heather, I think he prefers Iowa, but can sort of claim to be an Iowa State fan.
I'm pretty sure they both cheer for ISU in that game. I've specifically heard Heather talk about "cheering where her money went," and thats to ISU.
Per Twitter it looks like a lot of her money is going towards, Iowa football tickets, Hawkeye jerseys and temp Hawkeye face tattoos at this point.
Heather absolutely cheers for Iowa State first. She's more than open about that.
I do feel like people are over sensitive to the whole coverage thing but I will say this... I've been an avid KXNO listener for a long time and certain shows didn't give Iowa State the coverage the program deserved this past basketball season. It was all about Clark and since Iowa hoops was terrible they chose to gloss over Iowa State as well. I don't care which way to cut it, it's poor coverage and they either need to improve or they will end up on the Iheart chopping block again.
Who cares who Siepker supports? He’s a tool anyway and instantly has me changing the channel whenever he is on.
Miller starts the show today saying Iowa State and Jamie Pollard are retiring Clarks number.
lol.
lol.
