For all of us who are long term ISU fans, it has been obvious to us for years the difference between the two fan bases. One based on intelligence, generosity, etc. - Cyclonefanatics!

My question, does it appear to you that there has been a fairly rapid shift between the two bases? From left to right? On KXNO, I've heard more than one host say that the Cyclone coaching and administrative staff is far more "approachable". Granted, there are many HOKS I would not want in Clonedom as it would pollute the base. But for those who out of nativity spend some time as HOKS, it's fun to see them move over.
 
Seems like the media was a little upset with CPR on national signing day.

I heard Ross on the Morning Rush this morning talking about how difficult it is to get Iowa coaches and others affiliated with the Iowa program (the example he used was Bobby Hansen) compared to Iowa State.

This isn't anything based on the two fan-bases, this was just an observation he was making.
 
There was a news report about this a while back as well:

Which group are we talking about? Are we talking about fan bases? Are we talking about coaches and administrative staff? Are we talking about Hawks?

And what's the topic? Are we talking about politics? Generosity? intelligence? Approachability? Pollution?

It's been like that for over a decade for sure.
