Iup basketball

You're the same person you were at 19 or 20? I'm sure glad I'm not.

I didn’t curse at visiting teams or their fans when I was 19 and 20. I mean it would be like beating a dead horse after IUP ran them off the old goat pasture field at Miller…and we sucked at basketball back then.

So it's ok to not get a consequence for poor behavior. Noted, guess people can do whatever the heck they want and get away with it.

Didn't say that. My original post was not to let stupid kids get under your skin. Obviously you have. If I read the account of the incident correctly, apparently several students were directed to get out of the gym, so apparently there were consequences. How many times have I read on these boards about how they don't party at IUP and other schools like they used to, and which school is the best party school. One consequence of being the best party school is that you sometimes have drunken fools raising hell hither and yon.

I was a little skeptical this year when the KCAC changed its alcohol policy (i.e. you can take drinks to your seats).

Luckily, there haven't been any issues yet. Although, I will say it has livened the place up.


Now, you act like the Clarion fools at the KCAC ... your a$$es would be ejected within minutes.

Most people do learn along the way. Those that don't generally suffer consequences sooner or later. "Consequenced?"

Hopefully they learned how to behave in a public setting. You can cheer, yell and heckle all you want, but there is a line in the sand. You can't yell the things they were yelling in a school-run facility and expect nothing to happen. What's funny is they got tossed with 18 seconds left in the game. Granted, they should have at least been warned early in the first half.

Their refusal to leave and back-and-forth with the cop ... they were probably about another minute or two from being cuffed.

You don't learn if you aren't consequenced for your actions!!!

They are over 18. Treat them like crap.

If IUP students did this we’d never hear the end of it.

Or maybe you should realize that they're a group of stupid college kids and not let them get under your skin.

Classic at the beginning. After Joe's first answer the host said "Well I had 9 questions prepared but you just answered 6 of them."


That's a Joe interview for sure.

He’s always spot on with what he wants to say vs what he doesn’t. Jack has a hard time interviewing him.

Joe had a nice interview on the NABC podcast

Great stuff as always. You hesitate to think they’re tired, but they’ve kind of played like it. Expending the energy they do on the defensive end can impact the offensive end, although I don’t believe that’s the problem. Finally, it’s a long season and sometimes teams just get in a slump. Maybe that’s what this is for IUP. It had to be mentally taxing to stay unbeaten and #1 all that time and it may have taken a toll. Let’s just hope they break out of it down the stretch and heading into the post-season. The schedule, other than the trip to Cal, sets up pretty good for them.

They break out tomorrow and put up a crooked number against a terrile Boro team! I'm calling it now!

Here are some numbers to get your week off to a rough start:

* IUP's struggling offense scored 49 total points at Mercyhurst. California scored 48 points on the Lakers, in Erie, in the second half.

* IUP scored 87 points in the first Clarion game -- and called off the dogs with about 7-8 minutes to go. Two days ago, IUP struggled to put up 70 points against a lineup that started (4) freshman. IUP's final 6 points all call at the FT line.

* IUP's offense last broke 80 points on Jan. 21 -- that's a span of 8 games at 79 points or less. IUP is averaging just 69.5 ppg over its past (8) games. That is down nearly 12 ppg from a month ago.

* Trey ball shooting last 7 games:
- 7-23, 6-20, 6-22, 8-29, 11-22, 6-22, 6-23

* Playing to their opponents?
- IUP, of late, has scored more points against perceived strong teams than it has scored against teams well below .500

The savior, of course, has been their nasty defense.

- During this offensive funk, the Hawks held some high-scoring teams to very minimal totals.
- SRU (57), East Stroudsburg (53), Seton Hill (52), Mercyhurst (62), UPJ (60)


Edinboro visits the KCAC in 48 hours. This whole slump started in McComb. Hopefully it ends with the Fighting Scots.
