OSO delicious. JUSTIN time. For their JR years, if they’re not already in the League.

Unless something else changes from status quo/expectation, this means 2022-23 home games against:
Notre Dame
Wisconsin
Connecticut
Villanova
Georgetown
Xavier
Butler
Creighton
Seton Hall
St. John's
Providence
DePaul



That's 11 quality home games, plus DePaul.

I'm excited about these guys, but let's maybe pump the breaks on the NBA talk here. We may want to see them play an actual college game or two before signing them up for the draft.

This is good news for basketball, for Marquette and Notre Dame fans.

The rivalry between our two schools has been great, going back as far as I can remember. Digger, Johnny Dee, Al, Hank and some of the great players for both teams (Tripuka, Ellis, Lucas, Lambier, Austin Carr, Butch, the Riverses (David and Glenn) etc.)

Should be a lot of fun and should start, hopefully rekindling a good rivalry between us.

If we're going to keep playing UW in November now to accommodate for the big ten scheduling changes, it would be great if ND could become that mid-December weekend game scheduled just before finals. This game is so much more fun when the place is full and the student section is into it.

It has also to do with BE scheduling too. Talk is that 20 games is going to require that.

Also my guess is the late thanksgiving had a lot to do with November Badger game.

From what I heard, it sounded like this series was actually confirmed over summer, and was supposed to be announced the week that UConn ended up announcing its return to the Big East.  Either the Big East or Marquette obviously delayed an announcement, but I'm glad it finally got confirmed.

So, by that point, we will have:

20 conference games
3 exempt tournament games
2 Gavitt/B12 challenge games
Wisconsin
Notre Dame

That's at least 27 competitive games.  Leaves very little room for the cupcake additions (and for error).

I'm actually of the opinion that more major conference teams on the schedule means MORE room for error.  If we lose to ND or Bucky, so what? We have lots more chances for big wins.

I'm not raining on this parade at all, believe me, this is a good game on the schedule..I 100% get why this game is so important to those of you that went to Marquette. However, if I am looking at it from a pure quality basketball opponent perspective, I personally would rather have a home and home with one of the bluebloods like Kentucky, or UNC or Kansas. Nothing at all wrong with this game from a sentimental/rivalry perspective, but from a basketball perspective, they are a good, not great opponent. Kind of like Kansas State,  UW or UCLA or one of those that MU has played(or will play) recently. Certainly helps, without question but doesn't blow you out of the water when you see them on the schedule.

I hadn't clicked on this thread because I thought OP was just beyotchin' the way ND pulled one out last night against Toledo -- I was p-o-ed about that myself!

Then I finally clicked on it to get this wonderful news.

Like most of y'all, I have been clamoring to see this rivalry renewed for years. Thrilled that it's gonna happen.

Hopefully the home game will be on a day (or night) I can make it to Milwaukee. If not, I'll be setting up a fun Charlotte watching party!

You know what? I'd also like to see the administration stop turning down those constant ACC overtures. I mean, when they offered to fund the building of a football stadium at the formerly proposed fieldhouse location if we'd join up it just came off as soooo desperate.

Sorry, you lost me on that. We played No Dick for years and getting them again is great. Forget all those other guys. They wont play home and home. And eve better, we get the first game at home. No Dick rarely ever agrees to that because of their BS ego.

I’d say for some because they didn’t get in to ND.  For others, once they got to MU they learned from others that didn’t get into ND to hate them.  Add in the snobbish ND alum thing, Digger Phelps anti-MU student condemnation and that should encompass most of the displeasure here.

ND was our big rival when a good number of us went to Marquette. Period.

There was nothing better than beating ND, at least not in the regular season.

For us, it was Duke-UNC.

Was a big rivalry for both schools in the 70s and early 80s when both schools were doing very well in basketball. Back in those days there was no internet, cable, cell phone  etc  so everything was all about the game of the week on NBC  , Sports Illustrated and the Chicago and Milwaukee newspapers. MU Notre Dame got a lot of media attention  in all those because Al versus Digger made good pr.   That combined with ND Specific arrogance toward MU and,  their arrogance overall ,made them a hated opponent.

Also in those days MU and ND were independents, however  all the independents played a consistent schedule of the same opponents year after year, which made the rivalry similar to a conference rivalry. Also the quality of players on both sides was very high. Austin Carr and John Shumate were two of the greatest college players I ever saw . So beating those teams actually meant a lot.

Brother Herm is right on the money.

In the late 1970s, we had Lee, Ellis, Whitehead and Toone. They had Tripuka and Lambier. Both teams were Top 5. Notre Dame made the Final Four in 1978; we won it in 1977.

Notre Dame also was good at knocking down blue bloods. They ended UCLA's 81 consecutive game winning streak (in South Bend). We also hadn't lost a home game in like four years -- until Digger and his gang came in in the mid-1970s and ended it for us.

Then there was the infamous Glenn Rivers shot from the moon.

This was an intense game for both sides for years.

I don't understand the ND hate, or Badger hate...etc .....some are joking...some really do have some angst. I don't think any of it is about basketball though.

With the hoops part....Perhaps I can help a little. I will go back to say 1970 to now just to pick a starting point, and one where MU didn't play ND just before that.

First, what is a rivalry? Many mistakenly will say geography or perhaps fellow Catholic school etc....and those things can perhaps enhance a rivalry but they don't make one. A rivalry is simply repeated competitive play over time regardless of all of those other things.

So.....in the 1970's MU and ND played approx once per year while both were often times elite teams and programs and roughly speaking MU went about 6-5 or so during that decade vs ND. Many games were close. This period is full of MU grads and fans who consider it a rivalry, elite teams, close games, even record.

In my experience and in my opinion more people who say ND sucks etc...went to MU and/or were MU fans in the 1980's, a decade of domination for ND. We are talking ND winning 12 of 14 games at one point. This period would be a rivalry in MU's eyes only during much of this decade.

During the first half of the 90's MU and ND were in two separate leagues together for short stints. The results were more competitive head to head in this era with an edge to ND. Neither program was an elite program.

Then after a period of not playing from mid 90' to mid 00's.....the two teams played for about 8 years or so together in The Big East, with even results head to head about 7-7 or so.

And now, here we are again.

In my experience, with some, not all ND fans, and alums, football is what they care about and the rest takes a very large back seat to that, even though they have many competitive men's and women's programs in other sports. And I've been around many of them that played many sports there over the years.

It's a good game for MU to schedule, as long as ND is good and competitive, an NCAA type team. It also as you are seeing here, moves the needle with many MU alums with regards to interest vs some other games or opponents. If ND were struggling or had a long stretch of that I would be less interested. But they should be okay.

Marquette has had repeated competitive play over time in more recent memory with some non-traditional rivals. The Badger game works because historically and recently the series is close going back and forth ....repeated competitive play over time

I had a Marquette friend who said “we got him” when he learned LaPhonso Ellis was going to Notre Dame.

To be fair that guy is now a Marquette season ticket holder.

Q: How many Notre Dame grads does it take to screw in a light bulb?

A: 30. 1 to screw it in and 29 to reminisce about what a wonderful experience it was.

Cool photo, looks like a Renaissance painting. Forgive my ignorance, but can someone please provide background/context for those of us who weren't around then?

This is good news for basketball, for Marquette and Notre Dame fans.

The rivalry between our two schools has been great, going back as far as I can remember. Digger, Johnny Dee, Al, Hank and some of the great players for both teams (Tripuka, Ellis, Lucas, Lambier, Austin Carr, Butch, the Riverses (David and Glenn) etc.)

Should be a lot of fun and should start, hopefully rekindling a good rivalry between us.

How could you not mention Shrek (Harangody)?

Why is outer space a vacuum? ...because ND sucks!

I can still see David Rivers 17 foot pull up to beat MU at the buzzer in July 85.  And his resulting celebratory somersault on the floor of the MECCA.   Mine was one of the classes that went 0-8 against ND.

The photo of Michael Wilson standing on the rim, wearing one shoe, was from January 10th, 1981.

The game in which Doc Rivers banked in a 35-40 footer at the buzzer to win for the good guys.

80-81 season. ND came in ranked #5 in the country. Freshman Doc Rivers hits a bank shot from the time line.
Forgotten was much maligned senior center Dean Marqart had the game of his life.

My daughter is upset as it is happening after she graduates.  This rivalry series needs to be a staple for years.

Was at that game. The following year, we trashed ND in SB.  We beat them 3 out of 4 years in my time.
