I forgot this probably puts IUP behind the 8-ball in the Dixon Trophy race.
The Home Office might need to revisit the rules.

The white flag is flying. The only positive is we will probably win the elusive Dixon Trophy for the year ðŸ˜

If you want to talk disaster go take a glance on the Penn State message boards. Not happy in the valley this morning.

Perhaps, but he's not wrong. It seems like you guys will not be content without a national semifinal. And there's just too many quality programs to have that as the expectation every year.

No but sometimes it feels like IUP fans and Pitt fans are similar that the expectations are so high that disappointment feels like disaster. This season is a disappointment, not a disaster.

So, if you think IUP's situation somehow resembles PSU's - to use an analogy - IUP losing to SHU is like if PSU would have lost to UMass last week. That's where we are.

The question being asked on those boards (in polite terms) is has PSU hit its ceiling under Franklin. Obviously his record under the bright lights is horrendous.

To sum this up. One (Alumni, Reporters, Conference Coaches, etc) doesn't expect IUP to go backwards after winning the conference last year. "All In" is more like "Pray and Win on a Whim". If Tort is not held responsible for this, then I ask what the expectation is from the President and AD.

Penn State fans, of which my brother and nephew are two, generally aren't bad in person, but PSU has some of the most toxic online message boards I've ever encountered. I made the mistake of getting on the Blue-White board or whatever they call it now once or twice and will never repeat that mistake. They're a prime example of why these big schools that talk of forming super conferences and kicking the Northwesterns and Indianas to the curb better be careful what they wish for. Imagine if Penn State were in a conference with teams such as Alabama, Georgia, Clemson, Florida State, etc., thrown in along with Ohio State and Michigan. They might get a little preview of that when USC, UCLA, Oregon, and Washington come in next season and divisions end. They'll have a little more than OSU and Michigan to worry about.

They lost to Seton Hill, how is this not a disaster?
I get many are probably checked out inside that locker room but this is just embarrassing.
Needless to say there will be plenty of great seats available in 6 days.

I get what you're saying, but it's the same sentiment. Once that third loss happens the fans start acting like pets' heads are falling off. To paraphrase the 16th president, rumors of IUP's demise are greatly exaggerated.
