One argument is Dayton plays Detroit, so they should play WSU. Another is Dayton shouldn't demand it be a buy game or 2 or 3 for 1. Which is it? Detroit is a buy game which I've heard Dayton is open to with WSU, but WSU only wants a home and home. Really?!?!? Who is making the demands here? Ridiculous!

Maybe for Women's Basketball but I'm paying big bucks and my son even bigger bucks and I don't want to see Wright State in UD Arena........
Those few people that want this I want to ask if they have season tickets for Wright State, hope so and they can go attend those games. I used to attend their games in the old gym but after that idiotic Arena was built I stopped going.
Terrible parking, and the ridiculous steps---need oxygen to get up.

Agree it's an article about the Jem City Jam, how good it is, is open to debate. sounds like a Raiders fan flaming the Flyers. It's old news but the same old line.

Good article? I don't think articles ripping on UD the whole time is a good article.

Good article on the Gem City Jam. That is an oxymoron. And who the heck is Justin Kinner? And why would you post an article written in February?

UD- Rarely miss a game. Even when a sold out crowd of 13K+ I am out of the lot within 10 minutes.

Nope, not Women's Basketball. We used to play every year alternate H/H. When contract renewal came up a few years back, they wouldn't renew undr the same terms, they wanted to be paid to play at UD Arena! (We declined) Ironic don't you think?

Given WSU's financial situation after it's foray into commercial construction, I can see why they want to raise cash any way they can.

I must admit I hadn't even noticed that the women weren't playing WSU anymore. (I guess that shows how exciting the series was.) It looks like they haven't played since 14-15. Maybe WSU just got tired of losing. UD had won eight in a row and 10 of 11.

So what's with all your griping about the parking? 10 minutes is not bad.

The point of this post was agreeing with Flyer2 that the Nutter Center parking and traffic flow sucks. 30 to 40% of the crowd at WSU that UD Arena has, yet at least double if not longer the time to get out of the lot. The few times I have been to Nutter for sold out events it took 45 minutes to an hour to hit the highway, once after a 20 minute walk in rain from down by the soccer field to the Nutter.

I do have a gripe with getting into the lot at UD Arena if your not lucky enough to have a parking pass, which has happened to me a few times over the years for numerous reasons. Their is a triple digit number of unused spaces in lots C and D, even for sold out game. I know numerous people who refuse to buy good seats that do not come with a parking pass, around the holidays for instance, when they have to ride the shuttle.

So why aren't they selling these extra passes? Seems like they are leaving money on the table. Sorry for hijacking the thread, but all of the past parking threads never seemed to clearly answer this question.

Google the author (Kinner). Yes, he works at WING. Also a WSU alum. Broadcasts WSU sports. Wrote for the WSU newspaper. Enough said. Put this thread to bed.

The guy is a absolute moron (plenty of other reasons, as well) for even mentioning UD vs. WSU in the same zip code as the other games.

I heard from a decent source that we actually offered WSU a buy game at the Arena this year. I believe it would have been where the Drake game is and WSU declined. Not sure if any of our true insiders can confirm, but if WSU is looking for a home and home it is never going to happen. A buy game every now and again is possible.

I wouldn't doubt it. Based on what I know, Dayton has always been open for a buy game with WSU. They are not interested (unless it's for the women)

Never? If WSU improves I could see it happening. I'd take a q2 road game over a buy game.

I would like to know how much q2 games are worth according to the committee.

Is it q1 or bust or what?

That's the problem with the NET, nobody knows what's going on.

WSU was 136 in the NET last year, which would be a quad 3 game home or away. They were very close to the cut off of a quad 2 road game.

UD2 - there is plenty of info on how the committee looks at quad games on the internet and posted on this board.

IMHO - hosting WSU would be more fun than most of the buy games we get. There would be some elevated tension not to loose, and the arena would have a good chance of selling out and would probably put more butts in the seats than a typical buy game. So let the games happen at UD Arena, it is bigger and better in all aspects and get more people out. They don't want to play at the Arena, that is their decision. End of story.

The arena will sell out for Houston Baptist.

UD2 - there is plenty of info on how the committee looks at quad games on the internet and posted on this board.

So, they were 1 spot away from being q2 last year.

Quadrant 2: Home 31-75; Neutral 51-100; Away 76-135.

In 2017-2018, they were #99 in the rpi...#115 in 2016-2017...projected as #1 or 2 in the hl this year...perhaps they would have been q2 in those 2 years...what do you think of the concept of getting a q2 road game at their place?

#145 rpi last year...their NET rating was better than their rpi
