I actually don't think concessions income goes to the athletic department. I think they are ran by the dining services and they rake the case. I think the gate goes to athletics.

Yep. Not even close. The KCAC has PPG Paints Arena concession and beer pricing.

Open the gates and count the money.

Sounds too easy.

Then again, the PSAC schools are run by clock-watchers.

I'd love to see them do $1 nights in the 'dead' season over break. Heck, just give them away.

Re: Iup basketball

Unfortunately it looks like they draw around 1,500 in the fall when students are around 600-700 when the student's aren't around, then once the weather is cold and its the only game in town 2,500. 3,500 for senior night is impressive.

Or that's caused by fair weather fans because they dislike a coaches philosophy.

IUP has an outstanding facility with high level basketball. Surprised it is not over 2k per game. Wlu is #1 in MEC about 500 behind you at #27 nationally. We should be higher too. Northern state is #1 at over 3k per game!

The way attendance trends are going, it will be a small victory to keep attendance at its 2018-19 level.

I'd be curious what the 1,502 was minus the 6-week holiday break.

Joe's complained about it in the past. One year IUP went from before Thanksgiving to Jan 30 without a home game with students. That just sucks.

At IUP that means no cheerleaders, dance teams, pep band, etc.

Re: Iup basketball

Per today's release from IUP, Joe ranked 13th in D2 attendance last season (at a hair over 1,500 per).

Love to see that get to 2,000 avg this year.

KR to Indiana

KR could be Joe's top assistant

Start the rally

All seriousness ... may not be a bad hire -- especially on Aug. 1.

Can you imagine those two together... hahahaha

I think I know where KR will surface!

Re: Iup basketball

Darn, I thought we were getting one more year out of Allen. Ugh, I wish him well!

AND yes, Joe works the heck out of his assistants. Stevie Piotrowicz will vouch for that! Speaking of, Stevie will be the head coach of Erie Cathedral Prep this coming school year.

Re: Iup basketball

That was just a matter of time. He has a real bright future in the business. I wish him well.

It's a good job under Joe. He has a long track record of getting those guys to their next job quickly.

They earn their money under Joe from what I hear, too.
