Basketball will have a special working group. No decisions re start time yet. MAAC commissioner Rich Ensor said league is putting together a working group on basketball this week: "I think we'll see some modification in the non-conference season. I don't think it'll be eliminated, but I can see very regionalized competition ... perhaps starting later."

still leaning towards the pessimistic side. Until we see a sharper decline in infections everything is in jeopardy. It is early though. We won't know until we know.

JMO, if there is a FB season, there will be a BB season. But probably w/o fans in the stands.

I still think that the season will happen, but might be later than expected. As a baseball guy, I'm very concerned about the college baseball scene as we know. There have been multiple division 1 programs that have cut their baseball programs because of budget issues. Boise State, Chicago State, and Furman are some of them that have been reported. I think smaller division 1 programs will have these issues big time. I wouldn't be surprised if Iona has had discussions about cutting the baseball program. Only time will tell. Just my opinion.

Guy, CJB and ic59. Just ran into Coach Masiello coming out of the post office on Fisher Ave. Walked up to his car and asked for license and registration. He looked at me and then laughed. Told him I was an Iona fan and he said that was ok as I was wearing the right shirt. Had a green t-shirt on. Good sense of humor and seemingly nice guy. Didn’t have a chance to speak with him...

Why is this of no interest to the rest of us?

brf, thanks. I don't get to see much "Fisher Ave." news. And it now appears that Coach Masiello is closer to the HAC than Coach Petino.
