What is it going to take to get a big time team to come to Hilton Pre conference?

Not exactly sure.
I understand your point but I don't think Minnesota or Illinois will play ISU. They don't want us to get any extra exposure in their states. Also, Missouri and Nebraska have been persona non grata since realignment. That may change but I doubt we'd play Nebraska with their new coach anytime soon.

May want to look at the schedule the last two years bud.

What exactly would he be banned for? Having an opinion different from ours? That seems pretty dumb. I actually like the question. A few years ago we played Duke in Chicago. How nice would it be to get a home and home with Duke or UNC? It's a pretty good selling point to recruits and shows we are playing big time schools.

Being a Hok fan, trolling non ISR forums and masking him/herself as something else while taking passive digs at ISU for things they haven't done.

It's really as simple as that.

It's either benji or Yeahbuddy or both.

We've had home and home series with both Minnesota and Mizzou before in recent years so it's not like it can't happen. I get the Nebraska angle though. I've always wanted a home and home with Illinois as their BB fans are passionate about their program like ours and until recently we had something in common with our FB teams being down at times and were more into the BB seasons. Just seems like a logical series to start but I get the recruiting aspect as we've probably had more success recruiting the Chicago area than Illinois lately and playing a road game in state may be more of a boost to us than they'd like.

Voting no on Illinois, I swear we embarrass them every year in some pre-conference tournament, tired of playing them actually.

This thread is not a troll job. This thread is asking a question that I actually have ask before. It's fine if people call him out on a stupid question. However, this is not a bad question.

They're on about a weeklyish basis for asking these kinds of questions that are indirectly taking digs at ISU.

Read between the lines.

All schedules came from the schools website. If a ranking is missing, it's because it wasn't on the schools website and I'm too lazy to look up that weeks ranking.

Close thread. Definitive proof the OP is a tool.

Heaven for bid someone does not drink the cardinal and gold kool aid and is a realist towards ISU. OR someone has different thoughts and beliefs than the mob of people on here. I have talked to many people that wont post on here or participate in forums on here because they dont want to deal with the mob on here and get made fun of because they have a different opinion. You guys are driving people away. As much as you dont want to believe it its true

You have talked to people, in person, about CF? That a message board is too hostile for them to participate? This clown is something else.

As you're username implies, you are a taint. You may choose to ignore it but it's true.
