Scholarship table
It is a mandatory good faith gesture if we have any chance at all at Patrick Baldwin Jr
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
One thing worth noting, the last game before Big East play will be Central Arkansas. Typically, that slot is one of the weakest buy games. The Bears are projected as #292 per T-Rank. Milwaukee is #204 & NDSU is #140. Looks like the NC State lesson was heard loud & clear. Seems likely we'll have pretty good buy games across the board if those are any indicators.
North Dakota State is the best buy game by far. Gambling State is better than they used to be. Jacksonville and Robert Morris were okay last season iirc. Loyola MD is perpetually bad.
Loyola is projected 116 in TRank
That would be Loyola Marymount. We're playing Loyola Maryland.Though I just checked and Trank has them at 163 so maybe better than I thought
Only 3 of those home games are weekend.

Has there been any word on a campus site game for the Orlando Invitational?
Phil (mu03eng & Scrambled Eggs host) on Twitter said this may still be in the works but isn't finalized yet.If they are indeed still working on the UW-Milwaukee game, one of these would have to be an Orlando campus game. Probably either Loyola-MD or RMU, just based on the dates. The only other full schedule from an Orlando team that's out is USC, which doesn't have either of those opponents on it. Keep an eye on Maryland, TAMU, Davidson, Harvard, Temple, & Fairfield (along with LUM & RMU) to figure out which is the Orlando campus game.
I would take the Rick SLU program right now.
Why are we back to playing 12 non con games? So stupid. PLAY THE FULL 13 GAMES YOURE ALLOWED!!!
Decent chance there's a game yet to be announced (either the rumored UWM game or a Orlando Invitational campus game)
Hopefully that is the case, because playing 12 games is very stupid.
I mean what difference does it make?? It would likely just be another dog they would pound on anyway. As a season ticket holder, it doesn't really matter to me. I'm honestly more upset I have to pay for stupid exhibition game every year.
First reaction: The OOC schedule is solid. Second reaction: The home OOC schedule is as bad as I can recall. Third reaction: When does UConn start in the BE?
This feels right. I think aiming for teams in the 100-200 range as buy games is solid. If a couple pan out those are Q3 opportunities.But yeah, other than Purdue, what is there? Loyola-MD & NDSU aren't exactly selling points. Maybe that's why they are trying for Milwaukee, the local attraction angle?
I mean, i have said this before and it always kind of confuses me when people complain about the home non conf schedule. All i care about is seeing MU win. That's it, that's the most important thing to me when attending a game. I look at it like this, the lessor the opponent, the easier it is on my health and nerves. So that's a win-win for me.
I will see three times the competitive games in a long weekend in Orlando than OOC at home. Last time MU lost to St. Norbert's, Murff was playing. I worry about your 1st row upper purchase at the lid lifter.
