My dad in the Armory in 1957 after KU victory

Jared, I'm having trouble navigating through this one.
Every Iowa State Men’s Basketball Game Ever: The 1900s
Any tips on how best to pull up the info after the 1907-08, and 1908-09 years (or before)? Anything else there and how to access it, is my question.

Great otherwise!

Thank you for the kind words first off

Secondly, I'm only going a decade at a time, so because 1907-08 was our first season (and because the 1909-10 season exclusively played in 1910, it's only the two seasons we had during the 1900s.

Have a fantastic Friday,

Your welcome, and thank you for doing them!

So you only have the one for BB done so far, the 1900's one?

I'm still not sure how to find them over at your site, other than the links you provided. I've played around over there from scratch, trying but couldn't. Not as intuitive as I'd hoped maybe. Am I doing something wrong?

Also why is your site a little light on the fan forum department? Is that by design or do you see it growing?

And btw, your hyperlinks to newspapers.com work fine from my end.

Looks like a great site, if you have need to subscribe.

Also Jared, I love how we came up with the same idea. Only you thought of it first, and are actually doing it! Kudos!!

Looks like a horse pavilion.

It was designed initially with a dirt floor so that future officers could learn to ride horses. It still had a ROTC horse show when my dad was in ROTC just before WWII. After the war horses in the army were not such a big thing. So it grew a concrete floor and bleachers.

Tried shooting some game pics back in March 1972 at Hilton. Between light, film, and for crap Vivitar lens the pics were so-so but since it was asked "What was Hilton like in the the first years" thought I'd share. It was fun looking up the players and remembering these guys.

Pictured:
I - Old Cy
12 - Gene Mack
31 - Martinez Denmon
40 - Tom O'Connor
42 - Rick Engel - Ames local
43 - Clint Harris
44 - Wayne Williams

The Armory was a cauldron and a wonderful place.LOUD! The transition to Hilton was marked by too lofty of expectations. But the crowd,even if not large,could still launch into that LOUD thing.One of my favorite early games in Hilton was when USC came to town with Paul Westphal. No pep band. But the crowd spontaneously launched into a fist-pumping “Let’s Go State!”chant as the team just about pulled off the upset. And in those early days,students were in the parquet on the bench side.Great times.There was “Hilton Magic” before that phrase was formed.Clint Harris (RIP), Martinez Denmon and Armory holdover Gene Mack — Will Mack play “belly-button defense”? And the late,great Maury John who had some good teams through cancer and those sky-high expectations.

Thanks for those! Remember those guys well.

The transition to the new stadium was under Earle and of course Iowa State got it going at Clyde Williams before that.First game in new digs was packed against Air Force. Clyde Williams Field was a bandbox-enclosed party.The new place was impressive to us with all the seating. And it could be cold out there but beating Nebraska helped you overcome frostbite.You got there early to grab seats for your friends. Coach Bruce was under some heat but came through. Buddy Hardeman!

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, had the vaccine on Thursday afternoon and have been aching since–appears my smell might finally be back though, that's a plus. I started these after testing positive for COVID and needing to put my mind on something "productive" (in addition to my summer capstone class, haha).

I believe that's just the nature of Vox Media/SB Nation sites, article up top and then "forum" area in the comment section below.

I remember most of those guys. I was a little upset when Denmons' must have been grandson, recently went to, played for, and graduated from Missouri! Denmon was a good player.

Ah yes, the vaccine. My wife and I have just recently gotten both, the moderna, no side effects for us. Others have had some minor. Guess just depends, varies, both varieties.

Yeah the SB Nation it must be. I still can't find your archived stuff other than just your daily/weekly articles. Wonder if they could give certain things some better tags or index, in order to find stuff. Honestly I would have never found those articles you wrote unless you linked them to me here. Room for improvement I guess.

I did register to your site today and made my first post!, under user name of Tnoah, regarding your "Every Iowa State Football Game Ever: 1930's".

Seems kind of lonely over there? I do like your site though!

Jared, I'll take your word for it. DM coming.
