Big 12 Media Days ran in Frisco Jul 7, 2026 to Jul 8, 2026, and Iowa State's own aircraft made the trip. Every Big 12 school sends its head coach and player representatives to the conference's preseason media event.

The Cessna Citation Excel, registered to Iowa State University of Science And Technology, departed Ames, IA at 19:00 ET on Jul 7, 2026 and landed at Dallas, TX at 20:23 ET.

The registration ties the aircraft to the school; the flight record does not say who was aboard, and the event dates are the only link between this trip and the meeting itself.
