Student Ticket Price Drops
Iowa lowered student ticket prices for men's games.............to $20. Ouch. Let's see, $20 gets me -

One Iowa game
Three movies
ESPN College Hoops 2K5
Gas to get home for Christmas
40-ish cans of cheap beer
Baseball Prospectus 2005

$20 for a basketball game still seems really steep to me. Luckily I was one of the 400+ who bought the season package of 18 games for $204 (that's $11.33/game if you don't have the calculator handy).

That article also mentioned the bright yellow shoes Pierre Pierce wore against UNC-Greensboro (I liked 'em):

"I definitely like them," said point guard Jeff Horner, who hasn't broken out
his pair yet. "Hopefully we'll all have them by the time we start the conference
season."

An entire Iowa team outfitted in those shoes? Sweet.

Comments:
Right on about the shoes.
 
I nominate Goose for HHMVP - Hawkeye Hoops Most Valuable Poster. Everybody else, feel free to drop a line.
