Fan base shift?

[boblaporte]

Your general question is fine ... Yes, there is a slow shift taking place given ISU is now the largest school in the state. Yes ... There is a shift to more ISU coverage but it has been a battle even here in central Iowa.

FYI just ignore all the mean punkster trolls ... They love to play "gotcha!"

Madclone has it right, and I think Cyclone Fanatic has contributed to the shift. I can tell that news outlets (like the CR Gazette) are reading C.F. They know their traditional readership is shrinking and if they are to survive they must be more even handed than they have in the past.

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.

I'm assuming you mean between ISU fans and Iowa fans?

One based on intelligence, generosity, etc. - Cyclonefanatics!

And the other based on...?

My question, does it appear to you that there has been a fairly rapid shift between the two bases? From left to right?

So which one is going which direction, and what do the directions mean?

On KXNO, I've heard more than one host say that the Cyclone coaching and administrative staff is far more "approachable".

Are we talking about the fans or the athletic departments?

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.

I have no problem with bandwagon followers, since it only helps grow the brand. If they are flipping their support to the Cyclones, then they were probably never Hawkeye fans to begin with, thus they are probably not real Cycylone fans either. Some people just like to be a part of the team that is perceived as the front runner. This is a good thing.

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?

Yes, fan bases!

Apparently CJob was listening to the radio and now is ranting about Crows in a Nativity scene.
