Non-Confernce Update..

[brokenloginagain]

so when missouri, k-state, or KU play in KC, its in a four team tourney at the sprint center on espn.

when iowa state plays in KC, its in municipal auditorium against a team i can't name a player or coach of in its history. terrific!

Will this be one we need to see on cyclones.tv?

I doubt the CTN will be going for noncon games. Pretty sure that ESPN and the like won't be around.
Or will we be scrounging firstrowsports for a UMKC feed?

i bet UNI and Drake are thrilled with this.

Tell me why we should care what UNI and Drake think?

ISU fans benefit little from the Drake\UNI games. At least this game throws a bone to some of our KC alums (during break, a time when hilton typically won't be that full anyways) and also helps the big 12 presence in Kansas City that i think everyone wants to preserve.

Definitely thinking about making a night of this.

Won't be for long: the City's virtually mothballed it and plans to tear it down completely in the next few years.

Someone needs to get the details of this contract. It could possibly put a lot of the concerns to sleep. I HAVE to think there is, at the very least, a return game to Hilton.

Could this all be for Custer?

Oh please. I would rather form all sorts of baseless conclusions rather than considering the fact that ISU might have valid reasons for scheduling this game. Much more fun that way.

 

[WhatchaGonnaDo]

No way in hell we schedule a game like this to try to impress a recruit. Ever. Get your heads out of your *****

Release from the UMKC website

Big Names Headline 2012-13 'Roos Men's Basketball Schedule - UMKC Athletics

I thought UMKC was building a new arena on their campus, but apparently they're still playing at the Muni....

Edit: They do have a new arena, but it only holds about 2,000 :err: They still have to play big games at the Muni...

 

[WhatchaGonnaDo]

Me thinks you are mistaken.

I hope to hell that I am not. Pathetic

 

[justcynn]

a game over a break against a lowsy team that allows our fans that live in another major metro to attend, gets a young ISU team some road experience and gets ISU more publicity from the KC Market? Doesn't see like a big deal to me.

How many people realistically care about UMKC? Let's be honest. This gives us negative publicity

More about throwing isu fans and alumni in the kc area a bone id guess. I don't care about umkc.. but I generally don't care about mid majors in general including uni and drake
