Pitt-Gonzaga game called off

[NYCSUGrad]

Something's wrong with the court and the officials feel it's too dangerous to play the second half. Odd to say the least.

All the way to Japan for that to happen. Wow Dixon and Few have to be less than happy. At least it was a good thing to do for the troops.

People just hate watching Pitt basketball that much outside of the Zoo...the court is fine. At least that's my guess.

didn't that happen a couple years ago too with some other outside game?

I know what was wrong with the court: Pitt was on it.

So glad to hear their game got cancelled. Maybe somebody will do the right thing and cancel all their games for the next 125 years.

Why bring them back that soon?

Things tend to go badly whenever Georgetown or Pitt get involved.

Too many incidents of slipping on the court. The Pitt player that bounced his grill off the hardwood... harsh to watch. Have to call the game.

I don't get it, why do they keep playing these games? I understand you want to support the troops, but there are other ways of doing it.

Just spit balling but I'm thinking Jamie Dixon went a little too heavy on the hair grease.

O-X I assume your post (#12) is a tweet. For some reason I can only see about half of the tweets you post. This one, for instance is just a completely blank post. Happens about half the time in the daily articles thread too, some I can see and others are just blank posts. Maybe I need to check my Pitt filter.

I can always see them on my computer but can never see them on my phone.

just noticed it was suspended. wondered what was going on... will they re-start game from current time or totally re-start?

 

[CusefanATL]

wait... is this an outdoor game?

 

[Briancuse]

Maybe we should send over Uconn.

Neither, I think the game won't be played. The Florida - Georgetown game last year was cancelled during the game and I believe they never rescheduled it.

I had refreshed a few times before posting that but now that I have left and come back I see a link to a cbs article. It looks like there is room for other stuff to be shown, but all I see is the link. Is that all that is there or is there other stuff I can't see?

There's an embedded tweet, and I added the link later.

They both link to the same story.

I see humor in this: Gonzaga and Pitt - 2 of the biggest long-term busts in the NCAA, can't even generate a single win when they play each other.
