Things I've learned about ISU...

  1. Iowa State University has reached a tipping point with more than 36,000 students currently enrolled. Since 2005, enrollment at Iowa State has increased by 40% making Iowa State the top choice for Iowans attending any institution in higher education. Enrollment for Iowa State's core disciplines - engineering, agriculture, and the biosciences - has increased by nearly 70% in the same time span. In fact, 50% of Iowa State's students earn degrees in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) related fields.

    Based on this new enrollment reality, the partnership between Iowa State University and the Iowa General Assembly has never been more important. This year, Iowa State is requesting a 4.5% increase ($8.2 million) in recurring funds that will be used to bolster programs and initiatives related to student success. As more and more students - particularly Iowans - choose Iowa State, it's the university's responsibility to provide them a world class learning experience.

    New state dollars will be used to address critical capacity needs associated with the increasing student demand, particularly for programs in high demand by students and employers. Specific examples include:
    • Increase academic advising, tutoring, and supplemental instruction
    • Investments in learning analytics leveraging big data
    • Expand personalized learning opportunities and real-world experiences focusing on STEM
    • Enhance financial literacy and identify low cost paths to obtaining degrees
    • Scale-up online learning matched with technology and flipped classroom spaces
    • Strengthen the student/faculty ratio in effort to keep pace with the 7th consecutive year of record enrollment
    No university educates more Iowans (21,000) than Iowa State University, and demand is high for students once they graduate. During FY15, graduates achieved a 95% placement rate within six months of graduation. Of those graduates who entered the workforce, 66% of the Iowa resident graduates remained in Iowa to begin their careers.

So ISU educates 21,000 Iowans, but none of them play basketball?
 
We handled Iowa so your point is moot. The OP is asking hawk fans because of a common opponent thing. You probably didn't register that though did ya? LOL!!!
Handled Iowa aka "let Iowa beat themselves so that we could feel good about ourselves"..........lol....
 
Better listen... shame is something that fans (er.. non-fans) of isu know a thing or two about. Think football. Shame knows no other like it does isu when it comes to the gridiron. Literally nothing to show for over 125 years of futility.
Iowa may be able to win their share of football games in the BIG 10 but for some reason do not have a good record over lowly Iowa State. I
d jave to look again but I think if Iowa wins over ISU in football next year they will finally tie with them in wins in the Ferentz era.
 
And he's fondled more male genitalia than the entire Iowa team ever will.

ISUs Sandusky.
That's only in the eyes of you that thrives on defaming people. If you notice in the video that someone so happily posted Niang was swinging his arms as he turned to head down the court and the back of his hand might or might not have touched the player. If you really weren't trying to be so theatrical you would notice that Burton's arms were also a distance from his side as he turned quickly to head down on defense, just didn't happen to be anyone close to him.

You don't see Cyclone fans on here constantly being a bully nitpicking about the Iowa players.
 
If Roy Marble shot more 3s he would. So you lose.
Roy Marble played the position to certainly shoot a lot more threes than Niang. I suspect Niang has always shot at a lot higher percentage. Even as short handed and as many minutes as the players had to play this year the ISU had the second highest field goal percentage in the NCAA this year at over 50% as a teqam.

It's just a shame ISU didn't have Naz Long this year so we could have seen if the Cyclones would have been as good as advertised. Without a doubt they would have won several more games. I wouldn't wish that bad luck on any team, unlike some of the classy Iowa fans here.

Iowa's current record versus isu is 41 - 22.

To the point, what else specifically has isu accomplished of note on the football field? Name one team that has done less in the entire history of its program in major college football than has isu.

Why paint only a single stroke here? How was isu at stopping opponents from scoring? [253rd best] Rebounding? [173rd best] Offensive rebounding? [293rd best] Turnovers? [68th best] Forcing turnovers? [200th best] Turnover margin? [125th best] Free throw percentage? [139th best] 3-point fg % defense? [126th best]. Not nearly as good as you want others to think.

Several teams are without players during the course of any season. Each could make similar unfounded claims of being so much more successful with those players. Records are what they are at this point.

Class or lack thereof is not unique to Iowa fans.

There it is Niang the wang grabber really didn't do it. The video is a fake. The announcers were just out to get poor Georgie Porgie and the technical foul that was called was bogus as well.

Research fraud didn't occur either. In fact isu grad will tell you isu gave back the $20m just ask them. isu students didn't really hurl racial slurs at Iowa Cheerleaders. Jamie Pollard isu's AD didn't get fined for being a douche and his press conference where he screamed "it isn't fair" was a fake. An isu donor really didn't go after Bill Self the pic is a fake and any articles have since been retracted because isu grad says so. Melvin Ejim another isu team captain didn't flip off the crowd at BYU, the video and pics were also faked and the Texas Ten agreed what he did was to be applauded. Dustin Hogue didn't kick a WVA player in the balls the player just got in the way of his foot. The isu PA didn't get called out by game officials during a football game that video was also faked.

Amazing just how many d-bag incidents from isu the past few years didn't really take place.

isu grad is sure they were all faked or didn't occur as the rest of the planet sees it. If anyone points it out they are just being a bully and picking on the poor poor clowns.

But don't laugh folks that isn't playing fair.

isu fan should never bring up class. Any institution that hails Graham Spannier the former PSU pres as Alum of the year has absolutely no room to talk class to anyone.

But of course as usual isu grad do tell us how it really is. We won't laugh really.

The University of Iowa isn't going to apologize for bringing in more out of state students. Those students and families bring more money to the state. Only reason Iowa will go after more in-state students is because the BOR is going to take away millions of they don't.

95% placement? Let's see the data. Is it just for one year of graduates. Is that placed in jobs or in grad school as most use to compile placement rates. Are they in their field of study? Where is ISU on this list?

Didn't you get the memo? Pointing out facts means that you are picking on isu and being a bully. It simply isn't fair and isu grad isn't going to stand for it.

Now if you would kindly ignore exactly what isu grad tells you to ignore, never bring any of it up ever again, it would really help isu grad to continue to live as everything in ames is as rosy as they think it is.

At Iowa, football success is defined by things other than beating isu. Maybe this is why KF will be facing the fourth different coach at isu this fall. I guess when you are use to winning only 2-3 games a year beating big bro is all that matters.

Who wants to bet that isu grad can't quite grasp the meaning of this post?

What do you mean stating that "Roy Marble played the position to certainly shoot a lot more threes..."? In today's offensive sets, players have much more freedom/latitude to play beyond the arc compared to three decades ago.

Your suspicion about Niang having always shot at a lot higher percentage is not even close to reality. Roy Marble, percentage wise, was one of the most consistent shooters around - never falling below 52% for any season during his career at Iowa. Compare that to Niang and tell me/us what you see.

Roy Marble also helped lead Iowa to a 30-5 record during the 1986-87 season. When will isu win 30 games with Niang at the helm?

Another stat for you.... isu's rather porous defense has allowed over 900 field goals to be scored against them this year. Next highest total for any team in the (not to be mistaken for defensive prowess) big xii is 819 by Oklahoma State. See if you can find out how many other teams have surrendered as many FGs this season.

While very interesting, these are facts that isu grad will say must be ignored. Pointing out anything not on the pre-approved Jamie Pollard/Chrissy Williams fact list, means you are a bully and just want to pick on poor poor isu. Please refrain from bringing any of these non-approved facts up ever again. This way isu grad can continue to live in fantasy land uninterrupted.
 
Iowa state fans really love booing, even when the situation does not call for it. If someone on your team uses their pivot foot, prepare for the rain of boos if a travel isn't called.

The only acceptable outcome for isu grad is when zero fouls are called on isu. Even then if isu loses the game it would be due to the poor officiating.

Very good data here unlike the masterfully marketed piece offered by one of isu's finest [/SARCASM] contributors to HR. I too, am very interested in seeing the methodology and complete context regarding the hyperbole concerning the institute located in Ames.

As for the in-state versus out-of-state debate, there was a time not all that long past when it was felt that diversity could be a very good thing. Now, in all of its infinite wisdom, the BOR is a proponent of further homogenizing the State of Iowa. Here is some common sense. The State population is not growing leaps and bounds and is not likely to boom anytime soon. Not every graduate of Iowa high schools desires to only be educated within Iowa. At a time when we hear so much about the globalization of research, economies and societies it seems counter-intutitive to demand that universities limit themselves to certain geographically defined areas.
 
Iowa's current record versus isu is 41 - 22.

To the point, what else specifically has isu accomplished of note on the football field? Name one team that has done less in the entire history of its program in major college football than has isu.

Hey now isu won the Missouri Valley football championship in 1912 with an ultra impressive 2-1-1 record. A feat the likes of Alabama, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Michigan, USC, Oregon and many others will never ever be able to touch. Of course it is because all those schools will never be in the Missouri Valley for football but hey if it isn't a fact on the Jaime Pollard/Chrissy Williams pre-approved fact list, isu grad demand that it be ignored. In fact, you will be labeled a bully for even bringing it up.
