storm the court after every victory? That whole state is a classless dump. I was not surprised to see Iowa State storm the court, even though I had hoped they would act like they belong in a big time conference. But then Drake has to go and storm the court against unranked Wichita State. I mean seriously, you beat an unranked team without its two best players in triple OT with the help of several very questionable foul calls and you think that its time for a town meeting at mid court? NCAA needs to address this storming the court issue. Schools from a BCS conference should never have the right to storm a court, and schools that just beat an unranked opponet should never have the right to storm a court. In fact about the only times you should storm the court is if you are a mid major and beat a top team, or if you are Towson and just broke a record long losing streak.

Thats another point. If you beat your opponet by a score greater than the average age of a college freshman, you should not be allowed to storm the court. I mean seriously a court storming should be this rare spontaneous event. I can understand Iowa State storming the court to an extent since they are basically a mid major and had not beaten a relevent team in over a half dozen years. Florida State has no excuse since they completely blow out UNC, and Drake beating an unranked (all season) opponet in third overtime has absolutely no excuse for storming the court. There is too much court storming going on, it is really annoying.

You can add Northern Iowa to the list of Iowa schools storming the court with a win against Creighton today. What a dump of a classless state that is. Come on people of Iowa, you cant keep treating the basketball court like a corn field.

Iowa State stormed the court again today. What a classless school seriously. Two court stormings in one year? I mean beating a team that has the same conference record as you do should not be storm worthy. I hope they are one and done in both tournaments this year.

While I tend to agree with you, how long has it been since Iowa State beat a top 10 team at home? I mean not counting vs. ku earlier this year.

Speaking from experience, I can say that when you don't have much success against good teams, you get excited about beating them. I can't imagine Iowa State has won many games against well.. anyone.. in a while. I know in the early 2000s they were good for a couple of years.

I remember back in the early 90s, the good Mizzou teams expected to win and their attitude was instilled in the fans as well. But there was a long period of mediocrity between then and now so the Mizzou team this year (or Haith) is trying to reestablish the same attitude.

I dont care how long you have been irrelevent, storming the court twice in one season should be completely off limits. And storming the court against an opponet who is 0-10 in your arena all time is even worse. It's not like it was the first time they had ever beat Baylor in Iowa. I like the way both Missouri and Kansas acted after their games this year; celebrate like crazy but do it in the stands. Indiana is another good example of how to act when beating a top ranked opponet, I dont recall seeing them storm the court when they beat Kentucky, Ohio State, or Michigan State; and Indiana has been mostly irrelevent the past decade. I have little tolerance for court storming. I gave Iowa State a pass earlier in the year when they beat KU for the most part, but I cannot give them a pass this time. Baylor is technically a top ten team, but I can easily name you 10 teams that are better than Baylor is. Iowa State did not beat a powerhouse today, it beat a traditional also ran school.

I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you. I gave them a pass for storming the court vs. ku. That was impressive. I don't think that its impressive that they beat Baylor. I actually was expecting it from watching both teams play. The Iowa State team this year is good (3rd in the league).

Should they have stormed the court, no.
