VCU getting courted to leave A-10 and go to AAC for basketball only. Does that open the door for Iona to go to the A-10 for basketball only?

I would love to hear more about a conf inviting a team for Basketball only. Never even knew this was a thing for Basketball. I know for Football and Hockey it was. Very interesting. Maybe a topic for the podcast! |

I think if we had a bigger playing facility we would’ve been there already

Though small I love Hynes. Just wish we can do something about the concessions and restrooms. When the games are sold out or almost full it’s a shit show

When the games are sold out or almost full it’s a shit show Move the concessions to food and booze trucks parked out front. To cover for weather but a retractible awning in from of the doors. Self serve booze truck, two food trucks and lose the concession area to make way for more bathroom facilities. Or put a wall display with self serve taps in the main hallway....   |

When the games are sold out or almost full it’s a shit show Yeah I usually always head to the bathroom with like a minute left in the first half. It's gets real bad going up and down those stairs. I think if concessions were in a different area it wouldn't be AS bad, but still not ideal. As far as alcohol drinks.. there's just not much time to warrant spending a lot on that unless they do like a drink tent an hour prior to the game, half, and post game. What they do now in the Hagan Lobby is ok, it's better than nothing. |

Pitino pushed Iona to join A-10. Iona "too expensive."
