The Orange Krush, the organization affiliated with the Illinois men's basketball student section, apologized Friday after an attempt to shame Iowa for canceling their members' road tickets backfired massively when the Hawkeyes revealed the tactics the students used.
The students of the Orange Krush are among the most passionate fans in the country. But in planning the Orange Krush road trip, we misrepresented ourselves as another active charitable organization, which exercised poor judgement. This was our mistake and for that we are truly sorry. We also should have never placed blame on the lowa ticket office and Director of Athletics Gary Bart or called them out for cancelling the tickets. Protection of their home court is, and should be, their priority.
This year, the Orange Krush said Iowa had told them it was invalidating their 200 tickets to the game Saturday and the late notice would mean the organization would have to eat $6,000 of its $30,000 annual budget due to nonrefundable charter buses.
