Site not announced. Now. We get word that a second and what looks like to be an open exhibition has been scheduled with Gannon University (who ?) at Assembly Hall on Oct 29. Men's Basketball Adds Exhibition At Indiana To 2019-20 Slate - Gannon University Athletics Love it! I played against Gannon 2-3 times when I was in college. We used to go out to their tournament, I think over Thanksgiving, can’t remeber, it was always early in the year. They weren’t then, but now they’re in the same conference as my alma mater. Would be so cool to get my old school in Assembly Hall for one of these. About 10 years ago we beat PSU in an exhibition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never heard of them. Until the announcement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUProfessor Posted September 6, 2019 Report Share Posted September 6, 2019 So South Dakota tips off at 12 or 4, with Purdue-IU football that same day. I had that game penciled in for a night tip for sure given the football game. Not sure how they're going to manage both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the same for other Indiana High school coaches. It also keeps the IU coaches from being out at local high school games to recruit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, my experience is that fans follow the college game on their phone while attending the high school game. I don't know anyone that regularly attends high school games that would skip that to stay home and watch a college game on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGleas Posted September 6, 2019 Report Share Posted September 6, 2019 Don’t y’all have DVR’s? I’d go to the high school game, because it would be a family thing with my wife and kids, and then watch the game when I get home. I don’t get me wrong, I hate the idea of IU games on Friday, but it’s pretty easy to catch both the local high school game and the IU game.

IUCrazy2 Posted September 6, 2019 Report Share Posted September 6, 2019 I don't care about the Friday games, I do care about games being shown on BTN+. Frankly I have to pay extra for that crappy channel and the only reason I want it is for a total of about 50 hours of content (give or take) a year. So to me it is beyond annoying when the basketball games are put on a stupid streaming channel in order to try and force you to pay even more money for a product that you will only watch for 4 to 10 hours (tops) a year. By my count there were 4 for sure with a possible 6 events being shoved over to the shoddy BTN+ application. The schools are making money hand over fist on those contracts, they need to relegate BTN+ to the dustbin or it should be included as part of your TV package like the DisneyNow and similar apps that you get on platforms like Roku.

Steubenhoosier Posted September 6, 2019 Report Share Posted September 6, 2019 As my kids are all grown and gone, the only reason I would have for attending a high school game would be to watch grandkids, or kids of friends, co-workers or siblings. For that reason, the high school game would win out for me, if faced with that conflict. Having said that, I haven't been to a high school game in ages, so it really is a moot point for me at this stage of my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not talking about someone who goes to 1 game a year because it's homecoming or his/her nephew is on the opposing team. I'm talking about people that plan their schedule around Friday night high school games. They don't miss a high school game because IU is playing.

My kids are still in school, but I still see myself attending the home games even after they graduate. May cut back on the away games, but Friday nights in fall and winter just don"'t feel right if I'm not in the stands at the football field or the gym.

Until my kids graduated I went to a lot of football and basketball games. Also I moved away from that school district so I have not been to many games the last two years.
