So as of 12/5 we have:

@Villanova
Florida
3 games in the Charleston Classic (Florida, Miami, Xavier, Penn St., St. Joe's, Towson, Missouri State)

I think we are looking at another Big East team in the works. Hearing Providence, but I know they are also talking to Georgetown.

Awesome, this is great news. Swept the series last time around, plus the F4 game obviously.

I find this @tcf15 video to be among the most rewatchable UConn videos out there.



I agree. I so love the video of this run. Likewise, it may be among my favorite memories of UConn basketball.

Hahaha I forgot we beat the #1 overall seed out of conference twice in one season. Brilliant.

But this is awesome news, much respect to Florida. Only a handful of programs with the championship prestige that UConn and Florida have this millennium. But also a bit lame we might play them twice next year?

Glad we are keeping our OOC schedule strong. Hopefully we get at least one more good OOC home game and another away.

So with the Charleston Classic, we have the potential to play Florida twice, is that correct?

I just want at least one more home OOC game vs. a NBE/P5 team so we can play one at gampel. 2015 was the last OOC game at gampel that anyone cared about

Feel like we gotta add St Johns so we get a game at MSG.

Then add either Georgetown or Providence and a couple of Yale/Harvard/UMass/Vermont.

And perfecto.

According to PC fans on Twitter UConn is afraid to schedule them because they beat us in a charity exhibition game last year. Not kidding, this is actually what one of them is trying to explain to me right now.

Yeah there are going to be students graduate that have never seen a worthwhile OOC game on campus.

I don't want to play them because screw them. They wouldn't play us back when they were good with Jimmy Foster Walker and Johnny Egan. They wouldn't play UConn until the Big East made them.

Can we please have this game at Gampel for old times sake?
I prefer Hartford for most games but Florida should be in Gampel.

I know I’m probably not the only one but I hope we play Memphis at gampel next year. Would probably be a sellout and an unreal atmostphere. (Assuming both teams are as good as we think they’ll be)

Would prefer Georgetown. I'm interested in what Eweing is brewing down there.

Despite how others may feel, I think having a strong Georgetown is good for CBB.

College bball is doing just fine without Gtown, it's not like the nba without the knicks.

but i'd prefer gtown over PC too for the DMV exposure. Hurley wants to get that pipeline flowing again.
