Duquesne home court disadvantage..

[Pete108K11]

the 9-0 Dukes played 3 games in a Bahamas tournament, one home game at PPG, one game at a high school gym in Akron? And four games at LaRoche. I suppose with the right marketing and buses for students the LaRoche gym could have been tough for the opponent.

Like the Big East did with Pitt I bet the A10 forced the Dukes to move five games to PPG and ruled out LaRoche entirely so they ended up at RMU for 4. Did they ask Pitt?
The Dukes also play Marshall at a high school in Cleveland. How do they get fans at Cleveland and Akron? What a season!
Just glad I'm not their ticket manager.

I actually think it's kind of cool to be playing in small, non traditional venues. I don't know why they are going into Ohio though. Play a few games at Montour, their gym is pretty big.

 

[TIGER-PAUL]

They’re taking advantage of it.

That HS gym they're going to play Marshall in is called Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse! They play after the Wvu/OSU game.

Calling a major arena a field house seems goofy.

Lol

Why is it called Fieldhouse instead of Arena?

Why is it called Fieldhouse instead of Arena?

Why ask why?
