While I agree, can't move boundy ball because of TV.. Not sure why a little forethought was not done in making up the baseball schedule from the start, notice basketball had a home game this Tuesday and simply schedule this game for Wednesday. Maybe that wasn't an option for UIW.

---

I feel like this happens at least once a season. Basketball schedules are released pretty early, right? Earlier than baseball schedules, relative to the start of each season. I think scheduling a Wednesday game instead of a Tuesday game in such cases is a good idea. That, or just continue on with 6:00. If the goal is to allow people to go to both, having a game at 4:00 isn't going a long way to accomplish that... Most people's days, students and non-students, are ending right about then or later. They still can't go to the baseball game.

Easy answer….baseball.

I think it was done to minimize the traffic congestion of two events beginning at the same time more than allowing fans to attend both.

---

It was done for both.

Saturday's parking situation was a full on disaster and that was just a Softball Tournament (when the Lady Ags weren't even playing**) and a Track Meet (which combined don't come anywhere close to baseball crowds).


** It looked like there were 50 people in the stands for whatever the early afternoon game was)

I think the basketball game should accommodate baseball. IT'S BASEBALL SEASON.

Conference game vs. non conference game.

Postseason slot at stake vs. early in the season.

Heavily contested matchup vs. what had better ben an easy victory.

Pre set television time with no university say vs. Streaming with 100% university say.

MARCH madness v Boys of Summer. It's not really baseball season yet despite 20% done.

That said, hoops will be full between Bucky interest remaining and Kentucky fans. pampered Olsen folks don't wanna have to deal with that.

Is it 4 PM yet?

That doesn't help my schedule. I'm playing pickleball at 5.

Basketball only requires watching the last 5 minutes.

Winner of the last 5 minutes wins 94% of the games.

---

Two out of 3 games against Penn enter the chat.

Make no mistake whatsoever, the basketball team will need the fans the 'entire' game. If baseball hasn't put it away against UIW in the first 2 hours, that will be all kinds of bad.

I think so long as you're up at 0.00 left, you win. Don't think it's gotta be the whole last five minutes.

Correct. All you really need to do is listen to the announcement of the basketball score while you're sitting at the baseball game.

The point is that you only have to watch the last 5 minutes.

2 out of 10 games this year were decided in the last 5 minutes.

That's 20%.

Unless my math is wrong.
