The MAC office has not yet released the men's basketball schedule.
Do any of you have any inside information, and can post your school's MAC schedule?
Not sure about this...but I think the schedules do not get released until Sept. 1. I believe this is an NCAA thing...not a decision by the universities.

Last year the schedule was released on August 19.

Hmmm....back to square one...I have no clue.
Ours is in December.
November looks pretty full. A possibility of Akron on Nov 18th.
Schedule.
What is this "basketball" that you speak of?
I'm hoping MAC can get Ohio vs Akron on national TV and for sure both will be on STO. These two teams could be the MAC's best one-two punch in years. Both teams could be the cailber of team that Kent State had that reached the elite eight and a couple other years where they were dominate. MAC has lacked true dominate teams in awhile. Both these teams should be elite and in bracketbuster top games. Buffalo, and BGSU will be good, but Ohio and Akron are absolutely loaded and anything short of these two teams in the NCAA will be a disappointment. This is like the mid 90's when you got 2 monster MAC teams and several balanced teams behind them.
I am really wondering if Kent State can field a team this year. I think we lost everyone. We are taking applications for walk ons this very minute. Are there any spare practice players out there? Most likely would result in playing time, and we will supply books. We seem to be in this situation at the beginning of each school year. The last 5 years have been very stressful. Hopefully, a miracle will happen. I am going home and light candles and fast. Pray for us.

Are you forgetting Eastern Michigan? Don't they have some talented transfers to add to an already decent team?

Absolutely. and some good frosh.
There is some tall that EMU could start a frosh PG.
Plus the talented transfers should start also. That would be Bryant (SF) and Harrison (SG).
