2024-25 Non-Conference Schedule

[SaveOD238]

Who's idea was it for almost all of the buy games to be weeknights at 8pm?  For those of us with kids, that makes it impossible to take a kid with to the game and help grow their fandom.  Absolutely ridiculous.

At least this way I won't have to worry about my kids not getting the concessions they want.

TV.  Eastern Time Zone Big East teams get that sweet 5:00 or 6:00 start time

I wish we had more earlier games as well.  My kids are 3 and 6, so they can't do 8pm games and the WI and UConn games I'll have more hard core fans with me, which only leaves 3 games they can go to.  We also have a family friend who is a big Marquette fan that would love to go, but she's older and lives out in the boonies so doesn't want to attend an 8pm game and will be taking this year off from attending.

No skin off the school/team's back here and there's a lot of demand for tickets so no big deal there... but unfortunate in our personal situation that a few people won't go as often/at all this year.   Hoping for some better time slots next year is all we can do.

Yeah, this would have been nice to know before we bought an extra ticket for our oldest this year. 8:00 is when we're starting the bedtime routine, so it would really be pushing it to take her to the games.

My hope is that with games on other networks next year, there will be a bit more flexibility with the start times.

Ya know, I caught it myself after I hit submit, thought about editing, and then thought "meh...the Scoop grammar mob won't care."  Guess I was wrong.

Same ages for me.  And I share a season ticket package with a buddy whose kids are about the same age.  There's just not enough reasonably timed games for us each to have a daddy-daughter or daddy-son trip with each of our 4 combined kids.  And with the games so late it feels silly to hire a babysitter who will mostly just be watching TV while the kids sleep, so the wives may not get a chance to go either.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

My four year old goes to 8pm games. Not all of them. But one or two a season. I used to go to late night games when I was a kid. Don't get me wrong, I understand why parents are hesitant to do it, but I loved those late night games as a kid. Some of my best memories with my dad. I hope my daughter feels the same way. She certainly loves thems in the moment (right up until the snacks run out).

[TallTitan34]

Selfishly, I like the 8:00 PM start as I come from the Rockford area and don't have to leave work early. 

Flip side, I did get an extra ticket this year for my son to attend which won't be very often it appears.

Brutal.

[PGsHeroes32]

What the hell.

Do they stream on a live YouTube channel or something where I can just pull it up on TV?

Real fans will buy tickets

I like to bring a portable TV with me to games and stream in my lap.

Multiple viewing experiences.

Congrats to Mike Broeker for screwing up everything he touches so far! 

Pulls us out of our annual Thanksgiving major tournament tradition and tries to throw fans a bone by having a game in the Bahamas against a major program, yet fails to have TV deal attached to it.

Please! Please! Please! get us a dynamic new MU President to pick his own AD already! 

I'm sure Mike is a good guy and not a total dope... however he's been affiliated with too many head scratching decisions thus far.  Marquette deserves a dynamic leadership team in place to help maximize our strong hand in an uncertain future!

It's only $12.50/month if you pay for the annual subscription of $150. Month by month it's $29.99.

This is just so absurd that 1) They're playing a one off neutral game at 10 CT on a Saturday morning and 2) Couldn't find a legit broadcast.

Riveting....

To those fanbases

[UWW2MU]

I'm pretty disappointed by this. 

Surely the athletic department is not trying to inconvenience fans this year, but what's the deal... is there a big drive for cost savings behind the scenes, is it new or short staffing issues, is it trying to find some new revenue , what??

What with the ticket sale changes, no season parking passes, Flo sports televising this game, late or missing communications from the ticket office, no concessions at open practice (yeah I brought that up!), etc there's got to be something going on, right??

I think the reasoning behind this game was to have a fun trip since there was no MTE. In terms of the TV, well, that's an issue they have limited influence on. Since it's a neutral court game there were no existing agreements in place to air it (like FS1, or SEC Network) and since it starts at 11 ET no one has space for it with college football starting at noon.

It stinks, and since Georgia plays Sunday against St. John's, moving the game isn't an option.

That GA-SJU game is on CBSSN. Saturday morning conflicts with FB!

It was always somewhat of a head scratcher having a one off neutral court game in the Bahamas, but then to not secure any reasonable way to televise the game is unacceptable. Can't imagine this is what they had planned for when setting up this game.
