It's also much harder to win two on the road. Particularly with a young team.
With no fans in attendance winning on the road isn’t as hard as it usually is.

Agree to some extent. There is a lot to deal with on the road, but of all programs, we know what a crowd can mean to the home team. That advantage taken away evens the things up quite a bit.Absent the fans, you are still on the road. You are staying in a hotel, vs. your own dorm room, and playing in an arena you may not be familiar with. Going to Davidson is not like going to South Dakota, where everyone is basically the visiting team.
Duquesne and GW are playing their second of a back-to-back series this afternoon. Reasonable enough solution to me. I don't have any concerns over having to do something similar in and empty gym if needed.There are already several conferences playing back to back games against the same opponent because they planned their conference schedules accordingly. Not sure why the A10 does not have a public plan on how to handle postponed games. Seems like a rudderless ship. Man the lighthouse!
The shortest possible pause has been 7 days, so I'd say that that game is on ice, at leastWhen will we know about the status of this Wednesday's game at GMU? Or is it a foregone conclusion that it's canceled?
See my comment earlier. A split at Davidson is a net positive for the resume.Absent the fans, you are still on the road.

This is where I would love to hear what former players have to say. I could see the hotel room away from possible distractions of campus a net positive. I could also see the different sight lines, floors, and rims to be a bigger issue than I think it is.Absent the fans, you are still on the road.

Have you heard anything about the conference and or NCAA tournament dates? It is a quick turnaround between the conference tournament and first four with a lot of travel and games played.There are already several conferences playing back to back games against the same opponent because they planned their conference schedules accordingly.

Prolly contact tracing from a sick davidson coed wanting to make a scene.
This isn't first time the Rams have had a home game called off ... forget the details, but a long-ago contest was postponed due to condensation on Coliseum floor .... believe it was vs. South Florida or Jacksonville .... the visiting team just packed up and went home. That's when VCU shared the Coliseum with the pro hockey team. You win some. You lose some. And sometimes the floor is too wet to play.
