        This just drives me nuts. It sure looks like there was no prep for this interview excpet a pass over on the Summit standings, therefore the coach and the reporter engaged in a five-minute segment of the interview that is simply not fact-based. The hypothesis: The Dons have "strategically" red-shirted so they will be really good next year and the year after. Conversely, under this fantasy, the Jacks are more junior and senior dominated and that is why they are successful and why it's "next year" season for the Dons.
        The facts: The Jacks have two fewer upperclassmen (juniors and seniors) on their roster than the Dons, they graduate the same number of seniors as the Dons, and all but one of the Dons' players who are averaging over a bucket and a free throw a game is either a junior or a senior. The one who is not is a sophomore averaging 6 points a game. Yes, the Jacks lose two great players, but the Dons will lose what is likely to be their alltime leading scorer and another who is their third-leading scorer and top rebounder. Collectively, the Jacks will graduate about three more points a game.
        The bulk of this interview was based on a construct that is just not factually correct. Also, is this the softest speaking head coach in D-1?
        Sorry if I revved up your Anti-Dondom, Filbert. Here's hoping the Jacks pound the prehistorics.

          Serious question, i am at work and to busy to google, maybe i will later, but are Mastadons the same as wolly mammoths? Then they could change their mascot to Manny the moody mammoth and that would be pretty cool. When I think of IPFW I think of the pool birthday party scene in old school when one of the pledges has to wear the elephant costume.

            Nope, not the same thing.

            Fun fact: According to Wikipedia, "mastadon" is from the Greek for "nipple tooth."

                For those who do not think Eastern Time Zone, the pregame is 5:30 and the tip is 6:00 for those who have CST as the norm.

                  I checked the IPFW website: http://www.gomastodons.com/showcase/

                  It's only $5.95 to watch the game. Very cheap and I'll be watching this one online.

                      According to his twitter Matt Donlan is on this roadtrip with the Jacks - probably taking the place of the injured Bittle. NOT suggesting that he will play.

                        Yep, probably needed a practice player and Donlan was "Bader" in practice the 1st time around.

                          Nice. I'll try it out also. Thanks for the link. Hopefully this one will be over by halftime and I'll regret the purchase!

                            Matt Donlan is making the trip to Ft. Wayne and Oakland. But will NOT play in either game unless something crazy happens. He shoots like Bader against them in practice so the Jacks like having him in their preparation for Oakland
