"We have to look at this a little differently." Jamie Pollard explained some key differences in how the state of Iowa handles funding for athletics compared to nearby states like Wisconsin and Kansas.

He's not wrong, and you can tell he's rightfully frustrated by how our public universities are taken for granted by the state.

Iowa legislators tried to get the Chicago Bears to Iowa. We already have pro teams in Iowa State and Iowa. We need to support them.

Jamie has some great points! I’d be interested in what @LahnHQ and @RobSandIA would say to this.

It shows most Iowa politicians are less than educated. Trying to be nice here. Both Iowa and Iowa State are driving economics for vast portions of the state.

100% not wrong, and both Iowa and Iowa State would benefit.

See Pollard's full interview with @scottreister:

I’m shocked this begger got fired! Dude is an excuse machine for being a bad budgeter 😂

Jamie Pollard is an absolute treasure! Even if you don’t always agree with him- He fights for ISU in every aspect possible

Leave The Hawkeyes out of your pan handling pitch @IASTATEAD

Yes, the money has played a huge part of success at Wisconsin- for the volleyball team. 😂

Drop to FCS and get it over with.

Excuses, excuses for his CyTown failures that might never get completed 👎👎👎

@JR3_Cyco @KimReynoldsIA @ZachLahn

So Iowa State understands that small businesses make money, so they want you build a cy town to take that money for themselves. Got it.

Jamie needs to enter politics

Yeah, giving 18 year olds millions to play football does not sell. Drop to a NAIA status. I don't care about bars and hotels - bad sales job. He should have left a long time ago.

@LahnHQ

So because your project is failing, you’re blaming funding on others when you couldn’t procure the type of funding necessary for the project you demanded. Gotcha.

Nice for Jamie to share this!!
