Iowa AD Gary Barta expects divisional play in football to end with the addition of USC and UCLA to the Big Ten. The league has been divided into East and West divisions since 2014. The Trojans and Bruins begin competing in the Big Ten in 2024 and the league appeared headed away from divisional play before their addition.
Barta expects work on a schedule that includes USC and UCLA will begin soon.
Barta hopes Iowa’s border rivalries can be preserved when a new scheduling formula is adopted. The Hawkeyes currently have trophy games against Minnesota, Wisconsin and Nebraska.
Barta says the latest round of expansion makes it less likely all of the border rivalries can be played every year.
Iowa State guard Gabe Kalscheur says unfinished business is why he decided to return for his final season. The former Minnesota transfer averaged more than nine and a half points for an ISU team that made it to the Sweet-16 of the NCAA Tournament.
Kalscheur feels the same motivation this summer that the team had a year ago coming off a 2-22 record.
Kalscheur says the goal remain high despite having three incoming freshmen and four transfers.
(Radio Iowa) – The Iowa State Fair’s C-E-O and a key official in the Iowa COUNTY fair circuit say concerts are a growing emphasis to spur fair attendance. Tom Barnes, executive secretary of the Mighty Howard County Fair, is also executive director of the Association of Iowa Fairs. “There’s a lot of other things at the fair that we want to brag about and push, but we’ve got to get the people there first,” Barnes says, “and that’s what the concerts will do.”
Rodeos and race track events were the bread and butter of county fairs not too many years ago, according to Barnes, but a handful of county fairs started emphasizing concert entertainment about eight years ago and the trend spread. “Fairs were seeing what their neighbors were doing and now we’re seeing a lot of even small county fairs throwing a small-dollar concert,” Barnes says. “It gives the community something else to come to the fair for.” Gary Slater, the General Manager and C-E-O of the Iowa State Fair, says about 10 percent of people who attend the Iowa State Fair go to a show at the Grandstand — but the performances matter to those who do NOT attend a concert.
“That’s the pulse of the Fair,” Slater says. “Whether you attend the Grandstand or not, you like to know what’s going on and you like the Fair to pull those popular entertainers.” The Fair spent a million dollars renovating the Grandstand stage in 2018, to meet artists’ expectations for video screens, lighting and sound systems. “We had to get into that business or else they wouldn’t come to an outdoor state fair venue,” Slater says. “…It’s an expensive thing.”
Every concert-goer has to buy a ticket to enter the fairgrounds and Slater says when expenses and profits are calculated from the Grandstand, they aim to break even. The 2022 Iowa State Fair runs from August 11th through the 21st this year.
Here’s a list of area County Fairs:
