Nel biennio 1934-1935 riuscì ad organizzare altre 8 sfide "doppie" di college basket, che portarono al Garden quasi 100.000 spettatori. Nel 1934 Irish divenne il direttore degli eventi cestistici dello stesso Madison Squadre Garden. La doppie sfide organizzate da Irish continuarono anche tra il 1942 ed il 1949, e gli spettatori furono circa 500.000.
