Men's Basketball OOC Schedule 2016
Here is the Flames non-conference basketball schedule for the coming season. There are a handful of really nice games, but I am mystified by a handful of other games we are playing. Games against VCU, Indiana, and Houston are great. But three games against these opponents keeps our program weak ..... Cairn, Central Penn, Clarks Summit. I understand an early season scrimmage against this kind of competition, but I will never believe multiple games like this are a good thing, or should count on our record.

November 11 vs Cairn
November 15 vs VCU
November 19 @ Indiana
November 21 vs UMass Lowell
November 23 vs Mississippi Valley State
November 26 @ William & Mary
November 29 vs Central Penn
December 3 @ UNC Greensboro
December 6 vs Furman
December 10 vs Princeton
December 16 vs Clarks Summit
December 19 @ Lamar
December 21 @ Houston

RE: Men's Basketball OOC Schedule 2016
To be honest, it looks so much better than last year in my opinion. I think we win at least 6 of the games, hopefully more. It depends on how much we've grown. We've lost our top player from last year but with as young of a team as we had, the potential for a giant leap is there. McKay has to capitalize on it and just coach them up. Plus we have a good recruiting class coming in.

You had me freaked out for a second when you said we lost our best player from last year. I had to go take a quick look at the roster. John Dawson is still there and this is his final season. He is the best player. I assume maybe you were talking about Evan Maxwell.

I agree, we should win at least 6-7 of those games if not more. It should be a WAY better start to the season than last year.

Yeah, you are right. Dawson was better than Maxwell but it still hurts a lot to lose Maxwell.

By the end I'd the season Maxwell minutes had really been slashed. He was either in the doghouse or just didn't fit the style of play that McKay likes. I found Maxwell to be a defensive liability at times. 8 was shocked to see Kansas offer him a ride.
