I have no expectations other than to enjoy the game. Go Marquette!!!

Buzz wearing combat boots and wiping the floor, then the players joining in. Classic way to start the season.

Wow. Overpriced tickets and now this. Hahaha

I wouldn't play Otule or Gardner much on a floor that slippery, with both coming off knee injuries.

They couldn't have had this figured out before now? Really?

Two words:

HEAT BAZOOKAS... keep the court above the dew point, and there are no issues.

It's gonna be a freaking scrimmage. Go find a gym. I thought they had a back up

What a train wreck. Pay $500 per ticket to watch college hoops players wipe down a floor.

downtown85 · « **Reply #16 on:** November 09, 2012, 06:23:47 PM »

they should play the game on the half court away from the water.

Might've been nice to trial the court the day before the game $:-\$

Ellenson Guerrero · « **Reply #19 on:** November 09, 2012, 06:25:00 PM »

How did they not just set up the aircraft hold as a backup? This is a joke.

Da 'Lanche · « **Reply #20 on:** November 09, 2012, 06:27:03 PM »

Call the game.....hold an open scrimmage at a local high school.....get in GREAT preseason work with the #4 team in the country and move on to the rest of a very tough nonconference schedule. The cold weather and slippery floor are just not worth it, as much as I anticipated this game...it seems foolish to play.

chapman · « **Reply #21 on:** November 09, 2012, 06:31:34 PM »

Just play in the morning, it's supposed to be a beautiful day. No point in everyone being tentative, and even worse if there's an injury. Start at 10 am, finish by noon, get the team home by 3 CST and they have a day before Sunday's game, more if you can push it back a little.

Otule should not even be walking on this court much less playing basketball on it

Why not hoist a jet and rev the afterburners? Or maybe a few fans under the seaside hoop if you prefer to go low tech. The must have a few friggin electric fans in the officer's mess.

Very strange that Matta said (something along the lines of..): "Buzz's guys kept saying [the court] wasn't good." Was that Matta's way of indicating his guys/he were willing to play?

Noone knew that the deck gets slippery when the temperature drops?

This seems like terrible planning by the carrier classic.

Should of played during the day. Hit 70 today near Charlotte. College of Charleston and Citadel are right there. Too bad a plan B wasn't possible.

Citadel was Plan B, but the condensation happened during warmups.

Thad Matta...."For the best interests of the players we are not going to play the game. The condesation keeps coming back and at this early stage, Buzz and I have talked and the AD's have talked....it's probably not worth risking..uh, uh...it's not one posession it's two hours of basketball and we don't think we can keep the floor dry."

Now you can interpret his politically correct tone anyway you want.

I think it was more the fact that he only referenced what Marquette players said about the floor being bad. That made it seem like it was a politically correct jab.

Didn't get the impression that Thad wanted to risk it.

Would have hoped they could have just played early tomorrow morning. Would either team really be unable to beat their cupcake on Sunday if they got home 24 hours before that game started?

Yes. I believe he wanted to play the game. Not to mention every time they talked to motta the announcers said they're going to give it a try.

Sucks your game got canceled. Don't see why they couldn't have moved the game to citadel right away just give it an hour to move the teams and the fans to a different venue. Maybe it wouldn't be televised anymore, but it's better than not playing at all.
