Home and Home with Dayton, starting this year on the road.

I like it! Likely a Quad 1 opponent and a tough environment for our guys heading into conference play.

Wait until the Dayton posters show up on the board before the game.

Only a 3 hour drive from Detroit. I'll be in the house with some fellow MU alums

Why are we playing a home-and-home with a mid-major? Ew.

[The Sultan]

Quality, likely Quad 1 opponent.

I don't believe Anthony Grant and Shaka ever served on a staff with one another, but they both coached under Billy Donovan at Florida and Shaka, of course, took over for Grant when he left VCU for Alabama.

[The Sultan]

Dammit, UD Pride is down for maintenance so we can't see their priceless reaction to this.

[CountryRoads]

Quality opponent, though wish it was just a neutral in Chicago or something.

Incredibly dumb and wasted a major opponent slot for next year too.

Broker just lost his dream as the full time AD with this move and the stupid move of not putting us in a Thanksgiving tournament with real teams.

Our schedule will be mediocre now and on par with Gonzaga who are least smart enough to get major opponents to offset their crappy conference games.

What does your big time lawyer friend say?

I survived the days of Fran, Swenson, and so many more Badger trolls, I can deal with a few days of Dayton fans.

Marquette has 3 High Majors set up next year as well. Maryland, @Purdue, and @Wisconsin before going into a tournament.

Of course, this is wrong.

We have five projected Quad 1 games - three on the road (Dayton, Maryland, Iowa State), one neutral (Georgia) and one at home (Purdue)

Wisconsin at home is barely Quad 2 right now and could sneak into Quad 1.

That is a fantastic non-conference schedule.

How is this year's non conference schedule mediocre?

Foreshadowing for when Dayton joins the Big East.

Those tickets are going to be extremely expensive. I plan to go as well. As much as they are annoying as hell, UD's crowd/home atmosphere is among the best.

Couldn't tell you one player on their roster but I'm hesitant on Georgia ending up NET top 50

But yeah, clearly a crazy comment to act like this non con is bad

[tower912]

39-1 (only loss to Wiscy) and who cares?

Viper would be very upset.

[tower912]

Totally worth it.

Congrats on making an even more stoopiderer post than your previous one.

Hah, I said something similar in a group chat. Watch them win at Hilton and lose to this version of UW.

Marquette's hands were likely tied on this one when the NC State game fell through. Look at the calendar. Starting November 4th, we don't have more than 3 days off between games until December 7th. No chance they were scheduling a game during Finals Week, so that means they had a likely 3-day window between Friday, December 13th and Sunday, December 15th to schedule an additional game.

I have no doubt they exhausted every high major possibility and every neutral site option during that time. Ultimately, they were likely stuck with either a buy game (not ideal because they already have 5 buy level games with the home MTE) or taking an H/H with a program a step below what they would prefer. I wouldn't blame this one on Marquette, blame it on Kevin Keatts.

Dayton is a POS University/Alumni/City.  Toilet bowl of Ohio.

Lest we not forget when they "tried' to control Great Midwest Conference when they had the "home play-off" championship year after year after year.....Including making all decisions on the whole end of year tournament to favor themselves.....

Never forget......Scum is scum.....Corrupt is Corrupt.....

Let them rot.....

lol. I'm willing to forget something that occurred 30 years ago for the sake of a two-game non-conference series.

Yeah, that's a long time ago and many people ago. Personally, I would take them in the BE at some point.
