IUPUI to move Men's Basketball games

[LakeJack]

IPFW is moving their games to campus, IUPUI is taking them off campus and out of the Jungle. Looks like a big improvement, now they will need to fill the seats

Anything is an improvement over where they were playing. Should help in recruiting also

They may also be doing this to meet the Horizon League's minimum basketball facility requirement.

Oakland is a bit short on that requirement for seating going in, but they had enough to off HL to avoid the technicality. IUPUI cannot hardly go down in attendance with this move unless the students have been a driver in numbers. As a commuter campus, it may not be the students attending anyway. It might be difficult to get attention in Indianapolis with the other pro and college sports.

This will replace UMKC for my annual basketball road trip. About the right sized venue for the Summit.

Nice facility should help them quite a bit, and again another big improvement with facilities in the SL. When NDSU and USD get done. You will have solid facilities at SDSU, NDSU, USD, UNO, Denver, IUPUI, and WIU. The only drag will be IPFW which either way is in a tough spot. WIU isn't great but Western Hall is a nice sized facility.
