I was able to meet Jack while I was in school. Great man.

Absolutely! And the really crazy thing is that after an incredible 50 years of broadcasting IUP sports this guy has not slipped one bit at all. In fact, he just seems to get better and better all the time.

Wow , just watched it, that was really dirty - I think it was #10 that came by and popped him though -that's a junior high playground move

Should be reviewed and a suspension. Dirty, dirty play.

Re: Iup basketball

Dante wasn't ran in to when he was injured. I'll leave it at that. Two guys, Dante and No. 15 (Troy Jones) standing beside each other during an inbound and one suddenly gets floored by a 'mid-section' injury. Neither are even running when it happens.

Watch the film. It's at the 14:10 mark of the second half.

No room for that stuff.

Re: Iup basketball

Jack Benedict might be the least homer announcer I've ever listened to. Now those TV jabronies are a different story. They don't even know the game and are complete homers.

I love when the term jabroni or jamoke is properly used in context. Excellent job.

Re: Iup basketball

The ones here in Erie suck! Tom Riesenweber of the Erie Times actually tweeted last night saying Jaryn Simpson of Edinboro is one of the top 5 guards in the league. (One of my buddies showed me b/c he's spineless and has me blocked on twitter because I call him out on garbage like this.) Has that guy even watched any PSAC games. There were 5 better in the IUP/ESU game last night alone. Unreal how bad the media is in Erie. Indiana, Pa is blessed to have solid guys that have facts and aren't afraid to criticize either.

Re: Iup basketball

I watched Malik's technical this morning. It's at the 3:22 mark of the second half. I didn't see it in real time last night and ESU doesn't have replay.

ESU's Jakwan Jones shouldered him and he pushed back. Clear as day. As usual, he who goes second gets called for it. It was a typical Jones play from last night.

Jones tried to agitate Dante all night. Clapped in his face the whole game, etc. The refs talked to him 3 different times but never T'd him up for taunting. He'd have been T'd up twice in the KCAC or a neutral court.

He did a lot of yapping for having Dante drop 33 in his face. Had he put as much effort in to his own poor 1-for-7 shooting night from deep his team may have won the game. Instead, Dante got to talk and clap the whole ride home.

Re: Iup basketball

no doubt, but I expect that - our own radio guys are sort of homers, too. I'm happy when they get the names right, and when they kind of know the game, and give credit where it is due.

Re: Iup basketball

IDK, I thought the announcer of the broadcast was a lot of homer lines too. According to that guy everything against ESU was ticky tack.

Re: Iup basketball

WarriorVoice if that was you on the internet broadcast ... you did a good job. For a one-man crew you kept it entertaining.

Now the PA Announcer ... yeah, bush league antics. That's not a cheerleader position for the home team as they use it. There's the line of getting more animated for the home team score announcement and then the line of "everybody get on your feet we need a big stop" ...

The Dante private parts blown call ... it happens. It was off the ball and you have all those bodies running in the half court. I can see how it got missed.

I actually thought IUP dealt with the press pretty well. Having those two 6'10" guys up there helps.

The refs were terrible both ways but fairly even on their terribleness. ESU had three guys foul out. When those clowns want to be the show ... they ruin the game. That crew, especially its captain, thinks people come to see them.

Agree on both these points, from what I saw. You can call them close, or let them play, but the consistency is important. The ESU announcer ( warriorvoice) said the same.
