Is there some type of basketball event on the 18th? Seems like I read that somewhere.

What time is espn's segment on the Shockers slated for?

Kind of a guessing game. The Shocker Volleyball game vs Bradley is at 6:00 that evening. You would expect the Shocks to sweep Bradley, but what you expect and what happens are not always the same. A few years ago they scheduled Shocker Madness after a Volleyball game vs Drake. Drake took the heavily favored Shockers to 5 sets and totally threw things out of whack. A 3-set match will usually last around 1.5 hours. A 5-set match can last 2.5 hours.

So assuming the Shockers take care of business Shocker Madness will get underway after they breakdown the Volleyball court and setup the basketball standards. So I am guessing Shocker Madness will start around 7:45pm to 8:00pm (again assuming they sweep Bradley in the VB match).

My understanding is that the Lady Shocks will be up first. So assuming they are on the floor for 45 minutes (including warm-ups, intros and scrimmage) then we will probably get to the Shocker men around 8:30 to 8:45.

Just a bunch of guess work on my part. If ESPN needs a specific time then I suppose you play it by ear and be prepared to make adjustments in the schedule (i.e. Men first, followed by the Ladies) as necessary, especially if the VB match goes longer than expected.

Forget my guessing here are the "official" plans:

So it looks like ESPN will start coverage around 9:00pm.

Not sure what they will do if the Volleyball match goes long. That would irritate me on multiple fronts.

Thanks. I knew my shockernetters could get me up to speed.

Just curious. How many fronts do you have? Thanks for posting the link and I'll hang up and listen on the air.

I posted this in the recruiting thread also, but 247 Sports has William "Ha Ha" Lee making his official visit to WSU on the 18th. Hope that is true. Wonder if anyone else will be visiting that night?

That may not be such a good thing. We usually suck at Shocker Madness.

Get your butts to Charles Koch Arena on Friday, October 18 for Shocker Madness. I started an 'official' thread to help promote the event.
