Observations from an IUP standpoint:
* Neither teams gives up many points. In fact, these are two of the lowest in the country in points allowed per game.
-- This is going to resemble an old school PSAC West game ... not the modern West games with lineups such as Cal, UPJ and Mercyhurst launching bombs from all over. I doubt either team cracks 70 points.
* Both teams defend the deep shot well. Opponents have shot just 32% against WSSU from beyond the arc and 29% against IUP
* WSSU has won its past 5 games -- and not scored more than 65 points in any of them. They are comfortable in grind-it-out affairs. The Rams knocked off Virginia Union in the CIAA Final Four, 45-44. If that isn't an old-school PSAC West score, I don't know what is.
* Injury-wise
- IUP's Kyle Polce tweaked his ankle last Sunday in the PSAC Championship. He is expected to play.
- WSSU's Isaac Parson (starting PG) broke his wrist in the CIAA Tournament and is out.
* Looking at WSSU losses: (3) were by (3) points or less
* All-Time Series: IUP leads 1-0 (67-50 win this year on a neutral floor at Clarion)
* These two teams were set to play in Round 1 of the Covid-cancelled Regional a couple years ago. WSSU made the trip to Indiana, practiced, and then, well, the world shut down.
Advantage IUP due to home court. Other than that, it will be a dog fight.

Way overdue. These guys stay around (are allowed to stay around) way too long and then the exit is ugly. Was never a fan of Boeheim as it is and the way he’s behaved over this hasn’t changed my opinion.

Joe will talk with the best of them. You just aren't getting the answer to your question. Every once in a while Jack will bait him and he slips.
The Amir Hinton transfer was the best example.
The biggest jerk of them all (to the media) 'retired' yesterday up at Syracuse.

Quite a few coaches have become masters of using a lot of words to say nothing. Sports reporters get criticized, sometimes fairly, for asking dumb questions, but interviewing coaches over a number of years can be extremely frustrating. On the few occasions I was in a D1 pressroom, the multimillionaire coaches were great at treating the press as a lower form of life, especially if you worked for a small print publication. Coaches at the D2 and D3 level aren't as full of themselves and usually are more fun to talk with. Jim Phelan at Mount St. Mary's was one of my favorite guys I interviewed.

No. First show of the year. He's been saving up cliches all season lol.
Nobody in the profession is better at avoiding a question with a 4-minute, off-topic answer than Joe Lombardi. He makes it sound great. Then you realize that it had nothing to do with the question lol.
