I don't get these games at all. I think it is just dumb.

There is one right after it, UF and Gtown, just in Jacksonville.

Is it because the court is hanging over the water?

Warm deck, wood floor over it, temp cooling, humidity off the water

Back to the game, I see we are going with a shorter lineup than we did against Walsh. Evan is the tallest starter at 6'8"

20 min delay now. What a dumbass idea. Keep this on the west coast next year.

20 minute delay to see if the court can stay dry.

This is a mess.

So does this mean we only get an hour of this game before the UF vs Georgetown game?

Well, the San Diego game with Syracuse is delayed right now, same deal.

Good in theory, but just got lucky last year.

Oh I didn't know that. I guess the temp plus close to the water is causing this.

I agree, good thought, but scrap this next year.

Doesn't sound or look good. Officials left court, shook hands with players and coaches.

Well that was a huge waste of time and probably a good chunk of change.

Yeah someone wasted a ton of money on this game. Think of all the ad space that went to waste.

They got just about what they deserved with the planning of this game in my opinion.

Hopefully they can reschedule for a neutral court at some point in the year.
