I think it would be pretty awesome if Campbell and Lazard marched the team onto the field before the Anthem on Thursday night. I can only imagine how many people would throw a fit watching Lazard take a knee. It wont happen but one can dream.
Iowa State on the Field for the National Anthem?
- Thread starter WIB
- Start date
Jack Trice would be in a frenzy if that happened.
I'd rather not watch our fanbase cannibalize itself over this issue on national television.

Why would this be a good thing? Just wanting to push buttons and alienate at least half the fan base. Probably not a good thing for the overall program. I hope Lazard just works on consistently catching the ball.
I personally would love to see the Clones in victory formation Thursday night.
There's that passive aggressive little dig I've seen so many Cyclone fans tossing around since Lazard's tweet. Nice subtle way of saying he should keep his mouth shut. What if he hadn't dropped the ball at all so far this season? Would it be okay for him to express himself then?
This is a terrible idea. Matt Campbell AND Allen Lazard are smarter than this. You have 50k+ coming to watch a team that has won 13 games in 4+ years. You don't screw with that. I don't care if players take a knee, I don't care if they don't take a knee, but I do care when people go out of their way to needle others, and I don't care how you try to spin it, that is what it would be. This would be different if ISU was out for the anthem regularly, but this would not be a good look if they did it Thursday.
No, I think people are just surprised at the number of passes he's dropped. Allen is a great kid, has great parents. If he expresses an opinion on this subject, I'm sure he's thought it thru.
Way to go full cynical.
I hope Allen scores 4 TD's and takes a knee after each one.
Not often you find a dumb WIB post.
It'd be the last game I'd attend until he graduated and most in our group's as well.

That would cost the team 15 yards on the extra point, so hopefully he doesn't. I still don't know if I can trust a college kicker not named Cole Netten
1. I'm bored on a tuesday night trying to get the fanatics going.
2. That's pathetic.
No, he has forums away from football where he can take up "the cause" whatever that might be. He's a part of a team that has a great opportunity on Thursday and I would think things like this might be a distraction. But I guess I'm probably wrong.
Yeah absolutely pathetic to stand up for what you believe in. God forbid I take my money elsewhere if I don't agree with something.
a bunch of 18 year olds kids kneeling bc they think they're oppressed is not needed
Technically since he's already given his support to people taking a knee so you should be taking your money elsewhere starting now? Or would it only be if you specifically see someone take a knee?
