I have Xavier on 12/2 geef.

And ya, if you are going to play a road heavy non-conf., might as well do it this year given the stadium situation, especially since they have the team to handle it.

I believe the Cayman Island tournament is game at home and then three games on the island.

Great - I'd much rather have Xavier in December, after a handful of games, but prior to the middle of conference play where it's been the last few years.

Updated, with an educated guess that we have six games to fill, and they'll all be home games against RPI 101-200 type opponents.

Two games each with UCONN, Memphis, Temple, UCF, Houston, SMU and Wichita, to go along with non-conference games with Florida, XU, Mississippi State and UCLA is a pretty damn good schedule. UC can afford some losses with that schedule and wins should be very good for our RPI and help assure a decent seed in the NCAA tourney.

And for those desperately awaiting the womens pairings ...

http://theamerican.org/news/2017/6/7/WBB...71146.aspx

UConn women do not make the trip to Clifton, I mean St Ursula , this year . I guess thats good.

So the schedule as we know it ...

Home NKU - (10)
UCF
UConn
ECU
Houston
Memphis
SMU
Temple
Tulsa
Wichita St
Mississippi St


Away (11)
USF
Tulane
UCF
UConn
Houston
Memphis
SMU
Temple
Wichita St
UCLA
Xavier

Neutral (4)
Florida
Cayman Islands Classic (3 of Iowa, Louisiana , Richmond, UAB, Buffalo , South Dakota St, Wyoming)


Unless I'm missing something that leave us with probably about 5 TBA home cupcake type games?

Probably, though one more bigger game isn't completely out of the question.

I'd say that's pretty much the ideal conf. schedule.

That would be so iconically hilarious...the UConn women's basketball team using the visitor's locker room of an old high school gym lol

If we get a top 150, a top 100, and a top 50 game out of this tournament, I will be very pleased.

I really don't think we'll get a Top 50, but we may have two Top 100's. Iowa will be down with Peter Jok leaving, so it's really all on Richmond at this point.
