Wireman Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 The teams in NAIA Division I oftentimes have some Division I talent that wasn't able to work things out at a Division I school. Don't be fooled - teams like Pikeville and Georgetown always play hard, always have 3-point shooters, and are always competitive. In the end, teams like UK will normally end up winning by about 20 or so, but there is talent at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a lot of talented players that are caught in between positions that go on to have great careers at that level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auxier RiverRat Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 This is great for Pikeville College! Will they get a return game in the expo center?:jump: :jump: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farva Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Will they get a return game in the expo center?:jump: :jump: Not going to happen I don't believe, but can you imagine the amount of peope who would try and get tickets to that game?!! It would easily sell out in about 30 minutes! Eastern Kentucky always has been an area of the state that supports UK with everything they've got, it would be nice to see them play an exhibition or something somewhere in the area.

This will as others have said be a huge money game for Pikeville and that alone will help their program. A win-win situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
