Which gives Iowa more chances. It is very pathetic that ISU is finishing ahead of Iowa in the Director's Cup, especially given Iowa's financial resources.
Now, it might be understandable how someone Pretending to be something they are not could forget words they posted just days ago on this very thead....
But, no one will mistake the content and context of what YOU posted, Pretender. Why the need to insert isu into the conversation if YOU now want to shy away from discussion regarding the relative strengths of each the Big Ten and big xii?Does one fit neatly into YOUR obsession toward anything Iowa and the other fly right in YOUR face? Why of course it does.
Turn it around... tell me/us why the big xii does so poorly compared to most if not all of the other Power 5 conferences? The ACC is better top to bottom. The Pac 12 is definitely better than the big xii. So is the SEC. It has already been established that the Big Ten is better. What is holding back the mighty big xii from excelling inthe Director's Cup standings? The University of Texas has all the money one institution could want (especially considering that they only have nine other programs to compete against). Why aren't the Longhorns doing better than teams from the the top of the other Power 5 conferences?
(That should keep YOU busy for awhile.)
Keep on being the Pretender that we all know and laugh at.
So you don't find it pathetic that ISU has been finishing ahead of Iowa in the director's cup? Of course a Barta Lovefest Fan club member wouldn't find it pathetic.
Poor, poor Iowa, playing in the B1G. How can we ever compete? Maybe at one of your Gary Barta Fan Club meetings, you and Gary can discuss Iowa moving to a conference where they can compete.
Odd you would bring up Texas since they are often found in the top 10 of the director's cup.
I do not follow isu as closely as YOU obviously do, Pretender. I view Iowa's rivalries much differently. To me, the true rivalries for Iowa are in the Big Ten Conference. I want Iowa to do the best it possibly can versus teams from what many still consider the finest conference in existence. It's okay with me that isu achieves whatever success it does, but I also realize that it is not purely an apples to apples discussion as YOU want others to assume it to be.
Iowa competes in the Big Ten Conference. (The Pretend fan in YOU is showing once again... shame, shame.) Iowa just finished at 12-6 in men's basketball and the women have completed an undefeated home season in the Big Ten. The wrestling team won another consecutive Big Ten regular season title (perfect at 8-0). Even the most casual of Hawk fans knows these things, but leave it to YOU to show those true colors.
What is not at all odd, is that the analogy/concept regarding Texas flies right over YOUR flat head. If Texas has so much money (akin to Iowa compared to little ole isu, for instance) then why aren't the Longhorns performing better than just top ten? Should the Longhorns (or, insert team of choice) be at the very top given the amount of financial resources available to them? Or, should we just label Texas with the 'pathetic' term YOU want to loosely throw at Iowa?
Keep throwing crap out there that only confirms YOU as isu fan Pretending to be something else and I'll keep showing YOU the error of YOUR ways.
(YOU are on a real roll here today, Pretender. Morning, noon and likely into the night - Pretender ranting on HR is as predictable and transparent as they come.)
