Re: Iup basketball
I think you're looking at the 2016-17 schedule (last year). IUP hasn't posted the non-conference schedule yet. If you change the drop box at the top you can see the 2017-18 conference schedule (only).
I saw the Urbana game for this coming year on the Urbana web site.

Re: Iup basketball
Okay, the men's 2017-18 schedule is not up yet, while the women's schedule is. Okay, got it. I was wondering what was going on there.

Re: Iup basketball
IUP will play Urbana on Saturday, Nov. 11 as part of the S&T Bank Tip-Off Tournament. UPJ is also attending. I haven't found the fourth team yet.

Re: Iup basketball
Question:
IUP is playing against Findlay and Ferris State to open the season in Evansville. I know these games count for the regular season record.
Despite being against two likely ranked teams, being they are out of region, will they have any effect on strength of schedule when that becomes a hot topic in February?

Re: Iup basketball
Slippery Rock landed 6'9" PF Richard Bivens from Florida International. He'll have one year of eligibility.
Reynolds has put together a nice class. He also signed two players from Harford -- guard Aaron McDonald (he had a ton of offers in the PSAC/MEC) and PF Micah Till. Till is a prototype Rock post player -- about 6'7" and 250 lbs. and a big-time rebounder/defender.
McDonald and Till were teammates with IUP recruit Dom Keyes at Harford.

Re: Iup basketball
Interesting late player available ... Dyllon Hudson-Emory (6'7" G/F) has left Holy Family. He scored about 23 ppg last season. He has one year of eligibility.
No idea of the back story ... sounds like he'll be a nice, late snag for somebody.
That's the second major player they lost. Randy Bell, who got a lot of IUP buzz the past two seasons, also left and ended up at Lynn (FL).

Re: Iup basketball
I see on the women's schedule the home game against Bowie State starts at 5:30 p.m.
That likely means the men will play afterward although that isn't announced yet. If the women were the only game that night they wouldn't start it at 5:30 p.m.
I give Bowie a lot of credit. They will play anybody at any time and routinely have one of the hardest non-conference schedules around.

IUP women's schedule is up. First game at the Field House on Veterans Day.

Re: Iup basketball
I'd have to assume the remaining non-conference games will be a little lighter in stature. Findlay, Ferris State and Fairmont State ... pretty tall order.
Bowie State, a somewhat regular guest, is already on quite a few other schedules so we may not see them this year.
I'd heard there was some talk with Wheeling Jesuit about a home and home but that may not start until the following year.
Shippensburg, my opinion, starts the year as the top PSAC team. They released their schedule. They are playing Shaw, VA Union, Wilmington, Chestnut Hill, and 'TBA' on Dec. 19. I wouldn't call it a murders' row of a non-conference schedule. Perhaps 'TBA' can beef it up a bit.
I'm actually surprised IUP got the invite to the national tip-off (or whatever it's actually named) over Ship.

Re: Iup basketball
That's a pretty early start to the season and not to mention a pretty tough start to the season. Do they still plan on playing scrimmages against Pitt and some D-I heavies? Doesn't sound like it with a Nov. 2 start date.
Any word on the gals schedule?
Looks like the PSAC West slate is rather back-loaded for both IUP teams as they play Cal, Boro, UPJ, and Gannon at home in Feb. Or at least I assume it is that way for both the men and women.

* As of now (what has been announced) there are (5) Saturday night home games
* IUP doesn't play Kutztown or Shippensburg this year in crossover but picked up West Chester and ESU
* Five consecutive conference road games from Dec. 2 through Jan. 3 -- although at minimum the Fairmont home game is in between
* The non-conference schedule is, as usual, under lock and key. Fairmont posted earlier to confirm the game.

Re: Iup basketball
Any word of the IUP men's and women's 2017-18 hoops schedules yet? I admit that I haven't been keeping up with all of that stuff.

Re: Iup basketball
Originally posted by Fightingscot82 View PostIts more of a coach thing. They can't transfer without the coach first releasing them from their scholarship. But given the low scholarship levels its possible that a guy isn't on a basketball scholarship and can transfer without release.
The IUP WBB team wrapped up a successful summer camp according to my niece who attended (the aforementioned Shaq Baby). She and some of her teammates went and had a great time. She said all of the coaches and players were awesome. She was also very excited that she got all of their autographs. Great to hear!

Re: Iup basketball
Originally posted by IUPbigINDIANS View PostI saw yet another PSAC East to PSAC East transfer on VC yesterday. It drives me nuts how rampant that is among the East schools -- and how the conference permits it.
I'm sure it's happened in the West but I can't remember the last time.
