Good question, the only thing we can say for sure is that the university was only a castle on a hill during that season

15 home games total including 2 non D1. Heard the schedule is much improved. Also heard both Iowa schools and Marquette. Green Bay here. Tournament sounds good too.

That would be nice if it was only 2 non D1, With 15 home games that would mean there were 2 other D1 games in addition to UIC and Green Bay

Why is NIU / SF / Monty dragging their feet on this?
Every B1G school has released its non-conference schedule, so has Kent State, Miami U (and the other Miami), Buffalo, Ball State, DePaul, Illinois State, and D-II McKendree, which is the exhibition opener for Murray State.

Speaking of which, is this year's Huskie home game with the Fighting Saints of the University of St. Francis from Joliet going to be an exhibition on their schedule, but not ours? Just like 2016-17 when Monty counted the victory while Olivet Nazarene listed the DeKalb visit as an exhibition game.

The schedule didn't come out last year until Sept 15th so you probably won't see a schedule until September. Two non D1 games a year is fine. I prefer only one but have no problem with two. If a non D1 school beats NIU you can bet they will count it.

And that's worse than being a DI counting wins over non-DIs?
Sorry, but I'd like to see an example where a non-DI labeled a game as an exhibition and then changed it because they won.

But yet they have asked for Season ticket renewals already.

The due date was not until late September so I think we will have a chance to look at the schedule before the deadline which is good

Well NIU isn't listing it as a exhibition so it counts for them win or lose.

Maybe next year, we can schedule Joliet Junior College and count that as a regular game - but only if we win.

Kishwaukee College - then we don't pay travel costs.
Win-win

Or better yet an NIU rec team. I think the 69ers are available.

Please post others! I sure wish NIU could get back up to the Kohl center some time, short trip for fans in one of the best stadiums in the country.

UIC at DeKalb
Tourney in Ft Myers, FL in November

Missouri State is in the Gulf Coast Showcase. Know any other teams in it?

So far we know:
Missouri State
Northern Illinois
Penn
Towson

Missouri State board is reporting (rumor?) Manhattan and FAU are two more teams in the Gulf Coast Showcase.

GO HUSKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gulf Coast Showcase - Germain Arena
20-22 Nov 2017

11/20 Games
UMKC v. Manhattan @ 11am
Georgia Southern v. Missouri St. @ 1:30pm
Penn v. NIU @ 5pm
Towson v. FAU @ 7:30pm

St Francis @ DeKalb 11/11 is a play in game for the Gulf Coast Showcase tournament. Not sure what it means as we are scheduled to play Penn on 11/20 in the tournament. I guess they assume we will beat St Francis.

GO HUSKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Look for the schedule posted tomorrow Tuesday September 5th

Hey at least its Division 1!


UWGB and UWM at home, and those good road games, this schedule feels better
