Per the box score there were just over 1900 on Saturday and 1600 last night. In a 4000 seat arena. For NCAA tournament games. On Saturday and Sunday nights. Pathetic.

Pathetic.

Re: Iup basketball

Interesting you say that about WL fans.

Not cheering for the host #1 seed who is supposed to be better than you and that is a negative. Interesting take. The goal for WLU and their fans is to win the regional and advance to the Elite 8. Probably an easier route to that goal playing Mercyhurst in what from an atmosphere stand point will more resemble a preseason scrimmage vice playing the #1 seed at home before the home crowd. The goal is to win another Regional title...if the easier game is Mercyhurst, I'm rooting for Mercyhurst.

Re: Iup basketball

Right. I waited 8 years for the Regional to be hosted there. It was disappointing. Saturday I thought had a good buzz. But again, I firmly believe there were more fans there on Saturday too.

Tough too when the students who showed up last night had zero interest in really watching the game even. Their mannerisms were awful. I would have killed for the tournament to be on my campus while I was there a few years ago.

Re: Iup basketball

Oh I agree about the old men fans!!! IUP has no younger fans, period!!! It was all old men around me Saturday night that wanted to kill loud "IUP Chant" guy! That guy is just trying to fire up the fans and team! This fan base has no idea what cheering loudly does for the momentum and energy or the team! That team went 30-3 creating their own energy! What a damn shame that these fans don't get it. To root against Dante is a damn shame! Get behind your team for crying out loud!

My take:

1) I won't call any individual player out because they had a great year and a bad game can happen.
2) The flat starts to games continued yesterday but they couldn't over come it this time.
3) Hey Joe, where was the adjustments last night? You must change the tempo, something!!! PRESS, change the offensive attack, UGH!!! You should've pressed 2 or 3 minutes into the second half when you came out flat again!!! Yes, sometimes you have to go outside of your comfort zone!!!
4) THE IUP FANS SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Round of 32 game and that place was dead as hell. IUP has the lamest fans around! They are dead at football games and basketball games. Absolutely terrible!!! The guy that screams IUP at the games should be commended for his efforts. Unfortunately, the fans around him keep saying that someone should shoot that guy. Get the F out of here! He's a true fan unlike the rest of the dead heads!!!
5) Did anyone else notice the West Liberty fans rooting against IUP?
6) These players created great memories, it's just sad that it had to end this way.

My biggest takeaway from the weekend...

Two terrible starts. Makes it seem like they were tight or trying to put on a show for the home crowd.

Re: Iup basketball

Caught the last part of the game. I feel terrible for the guys. That has to hurt. But what a fantastic season. I really doubted this team in the preseason but you all certainly won my abiding respect. Nothing to be down about once the sting subsides a bit. That's all a part of the March Madness. A lot to be proud of here! Heads up.
