Such weaksauce by
SJU. Every travel schedule should have a go/no-go date and time for flying and when you cant get a flight by a certain point, you immediately enact plan B and get on a bus and travel directly.
Many times Dayton has had flight schedules derailed and at the last minute boarded a motorcoach and drove all the way to places like Amherst and Kingston an arrived at the game just hours before kickoff. I would have expected SJU to make the same sacrifice.
The weather was perfect as well. Boarding a bus would have been relatively easy. I know for a fact UD WBB has bused back from the east coast during heavy snow and spent up to 18-20hrs on a bus to get back to Dayton in time to play a basketball game. In fact, they've actually BEAT other opponent to Dayton who chose to fly.
To reschedule a game in early October when weather is not an issue is just very poor.
