Can't believe we are playing AT TRINE. I went to basketball camp there as a kid when it was Tri State University. Great little school that has grown a lot over the last 10-15 years. Angola is a cool lake town if y'all have never been. Pokagon State Park is cool.

At Trine? Wtf?

I don't think it's a big deal with no fans. A game is a game at this point so who cares if they play Trine at home or away? They are traveling an hour away, it's not like they are going to California to play a DIII school.

I agree but I WISH fans were allowed. Butler is allowing 25% so I'm not ruling out that Trine won't allow fans either.

Looks like a great plan as parents can probably attend Butler, Trine & ND games.

I didn't think of that. Maybe I will go to that game.

No fans per Trine's website.

Why you gotta kill my dreams like that?

I see where the Butler game is on FS1 but does anyone know what the details are for the other games? I'm assuming the MSU game will be on the Big10 Network and maybe ND on NBCSN. Is ESPN3 and ESPN+ still in the mix for the non-conference games?

Maybe we don't want to pay Trine to come here & it should be a W no matter where it's played. I imagine the home games vs Detroit & Milwaukee are still part of the contracts we have w/ them

Looks like 2-4 or so to me

Trine, & one of Milwaukee & Detroit. Both finished near the bottom of the Horizon, so would be nice to get both.

Portage native and former Bronco Grad assistant/manager Nate Frisbie is now assistant at Trine Univ.
He also coached at K-College

Man... if we can't afford to bring fricken Trine to campus WMU athletics just needs to shut it down for a year
