Any chance we schedule another game between now and DePaul

[Waterbury]

10 days off after 17 days off seems no bueno. We need this group to get some rhythm going. I know pretty much nothing when it comes to scheduling, so does anybody think we can get in another game before Depaul?

Last I heard was a Borges tweet saying that we may try to schedule one on the 27th--presumably St. Johns.

St. John's is the team available for the 23rd, but that same tweet as you noted inferred they plan to play the 27th, which leaves the ability to play almost any team in the conference but SJU, SHU, Nova make the most sense given proximity. Only game around that time is PC v. DePaul.

Anyone but 'Nova, please lol. I'm not ready for that kind of stress again

Any word on the 27th?

Why the secrecy? Hurley post Creighton game presser said he couldn't discuss.

Wasted space if nothing happens considering how few games we've played.

It's really weird we can't get any of the dozens of colleges within a 3 hour drive on a bus here, or vice versa, to play a game. There must be a reason beyond Hurley wants more practices but it's hard to see what the hold up is from the outside.

It’s already the 22nd. Was really hoping to hear an announcement by now. Seems like everyday that goes by the less likely it becomes we get a game on the 27th. Seems imperative to me to schedule one of the makeup games for then instead of leaving them all for the two windows the big east provided, because almost undoubtedly there will be more cancellations due to covid.

Can we please lock this along with any other thread suggesting UConn should schedule games on the fly or asking why UConn isn't doing short notice games?

For the hundredth time, UConn is not actively trying to do this. The school's and state's position is to not do this and Hurley wants practice time instead of playing games.

Temple's played one game before today. I guess it could be worse. I don't have the faintest idea when the next UConn game is.

Not sure this is an accurate statement but honestly who knows. No one knows what’s happening behind the scenes and what intentions are. Can’t knock fans for speculating and wanting to see the guys play though.

These threads are always funny, because if there's one thing the Boneyard is known for its definitely not just sitting on information. There's at least one thread within 30 seconds of any announcement semi related to UConn

Not sure what you are talking about, Hurley had said before that the 27th was possible for a game.

If it's no longer a possibility then when he was asked a follow up question on the subject all he had to say was no, instead he said he couldn't talk about it.
