And Ed Gagnier is a Cyclone through and through. Few people realize that he created a gymnastics program from scratch at ISU and won three team national championships here as our men's gymnastics coach.

I appreciate you proving my point. You just clearly illustrated exactly how little of a “Hawkeye fan” she actually is.
In other words, she was wearing a shirt.
Interesting. Do you know if timeout length is dependent on the channel the game is on or are they just shorter in general this year?
I’ve seen nothing on here to make me think she’s an actual fan. She just does promo stuff for Iowa, just like she does for isu. Until someone proves me wrong I’m gonna assume we’re being pretty soft here
put a big ass TV hooked to mediacom channel 22 and fire that b*tch up when we get into the redzone
It’s as if Iowa State doesn’t have a marketing major or broadcast classes.
She refers to herself as an "Iowa Hawkeyes fan" in this Twitter post, and has a picture of herself wearing an Iowa shirt and Iowa tattoos on her cheeks. That's not her wearing a shirt because she is promoting something for work. That's her wearing the gear as a fan.

Are there a lot of Iowa State fans bragging about our TV money that I'm not aware of? Seems like most hate the situation college sports are in where everything is catered towards making another $1 of TV revenue.

This is just the reality of where we are. Fans measure the success of their conferences by how much TV money they bring in, even fantasizing about poaching more teams from other conferences to get even more TV cash. Broadcasters are paying ridiculous amounts of money for CFB rights, for all P4 conferences and therefore, all P4 teams. To recoup that investment, they need to sell ridiculous amounts of ads, which means more and longer ad breaks during football games. Which means the experience of sitting in the stands at a game suffers.
But that worsening gameday experience that we all dislike is tied directly to how much networks pay to air the games, which we all seem to think is good. You can’t have one without the other. I don’t see how this gets better … P4 football is now basically professional minor-league sports, and money rules. There’s always dropping to D2, but no Iowa State fan wants that, so …
As the statue of liberty once said
"Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
