According 2 Indiana official, athletic dept negotiating with #BankersLife Fieldhouse in Indianapolis about moving Iowa game there 2 Wed

I would like that. Players would get to play in an NBA arena and you would there'd be less Indiana fans there.

Now the big issue will be watching the game wherever it is played tomorrow.

ESPN3 is the best case scenario, IMO. That is fine by me because I get it.

 

[hawkstats1979]

I think BTN has 2 games for tomorrow night.

ESPN has NBA on Wednesday. ESPN2 already has a double-header as well. So does ESPNU.

Not liking how this looks.

Wasn't there a game against Nebraska that was postponed because of weather a few years ago? If memory serves, it was radio only.

Butler's out of town, let's play the game in Hinkle.

Quit starting game threads at 7 am

Conseco is where the Big Ten tourney is this year also....not a bad way to get used to that court for March.

Indiana vs Iowa will not be only online

 

[Bigtenchamp]

ESPN has the video of the plate falling....pretty cool.

So what network has a 2 hour window open to show the game that has B1G rights? Or what network with B1G rights is going to bump one of&nbsp;their originally scheduled games for Wednesday night?</p>

At least the Hawks don't have to battle the SUper Tuesday jinx.

 

[hawkeye12345]

Best case scenario for TV is game is scheduled for an early start. I think the BTN could find a way to bump some of their rasslin or underwater basket weaving schedule earlier in the afternoon. The BTN has NW @ fOSU at 7 PM and Ill @ Minny at 9 PM (et). Play the game at 5 PM (et) and all is good in the world.

Pacers vs. Hawks at Bankers Life Fieldhouse Tuesday. Next event is state HS wrestling starting on Friday.

Iowa misses golden opportunity to thrash Hoosiers in Assembly Hall on ESPN prime-time.

And just how does a steel beam just fall off of the ceiling?

Wouldnt ESPN have to release the rights of the Iowa/Indiana game to BTN?

 

[Zamboni08]

Just on ESPN radio that they've reached out to the teams, and Hawkeyes are already en route back to Iowa City.

ESPN video of piece actually falling.

Falling Piece Of Ceiling Postpones Indiana Game - ESPN Video - ESPN

 

[STILLBUSTER]

Can't they all get on a bus and head to another arena?

Absolutley! Butler's Hinkle or Indy State's Hulman Center (much nicer) both seat right at 10K, are an hour's bus ride away and empty, tonight. Hell, even ESPN could get there, get things set up and barely miss the 9pm tip!

LOAD UP! LET'S GO!

It looked like a plate cover of some kind. I wouldn't be surprised if they find nothing structurally wrong. Have to be sure though in a public arena.
