Any of you IUP guys coming to the semis on Saturday?

IUP better clean up the show or the show will end early for them.

Peagram said that Joe snuck into the Cal shootaround and told anyone who would listen that IUP was going to win by 40 and they already made hotel reservations for Shippensburg. So Cal was extra fired up.

Good story...

Sure didn't look like it ...

Not a great showing tonight by IUP. Nice 17-point win over the Brent Pegram Show but not very crisp. If you disagree watch the tape and pay close attention to Redshirt Joe. He wasn't very pleased tonight.

Survive and advance. But, they need to clean up a lot. Way too much 'street ball' tonight.

Being honest ... they should have won by 40 tonight.

I think that this happened once out west.

Fri WBB quarters
Sat MBB quarters
Sun WBB semis followed by MBB semis
Mon WBB finals
Tue MBB finals.

One issue could be practice and shoot around time.

Redshirt Joe about had a coronary on the sideline tonight.

We're obviously getting ahead of ourselves, but I thought I saw somewhere that the dates for the regional would actually be significantly shifted if that were in fact to happen. Meaning that they would actually play the men's and women's games on Friday/Saturday or Friday/Sunday and then play the championships on Tuesday. I'm off that Friday regardless, so it's not an issue for me, but I can see that being a problem for out of town fans looking to come in on the Saturday for the regional.

Side note... If they did host both, I really wish that the NCAA would allow them to hold everything on campus given they actually have the infrastructure.

California has a fan bus coming up tonight. What a noble concept.

I think IUP should have one for every game. They'd be surprised how many people would actually go for the ride (open to public ... not just students). IUP's average fan inside the KCAC is about 60 years old. Many live and die for this time of the year. They'd go on the road if they didn't have to drive. Never know until you try.

As you said ... Redshirt Joe best focus on the Vulcans.

When Cal is clicking that's a real dangerous team.

IF it happens they actually split it up.

Meaning the second seeds would host two games the first day.


So ... imagine there would be two men's games and two women's games here on Day 1 instead of the normal 4 men's games and 4 women's games.

The other two games would be at West Liberty and, say, Virginia Union.

The crappy part is IUP could actually host both on the same day. Not many schools could, facility-wise ... thus the rule.

That's interesting. So it would be a watered down regional with less teams coming to town. I do recall one of the women's regions being split up like that the one year. I never made any sense of why it was like that. Must have been like what you say.

IUP could absolutely host two full regions with the MFH and the other place. It would work out well. Plus there seems to be plenty of hotel rooms in town.

I of course will be following events down in Greensboro come next week.
