I heard a rumor today that UConn will face a regional mid-major in a "secret scrimmage"

[Hey Adrien!]

I know we yearn to play against more challenging regional mid-majors, but I heard a rumor today that UConn will face a regional mid-major in a "secret scrimmage". It's a school we've played before, a program with a rich history and a lot of recent success.

UMass?

Maybe URI in the Hall of Fame game?

My faith in humanity moving forward is always shaken after reading comments like this.

So secret they're hiding it in plain sight!

Syracuse?

Syracuse?

Is Canada part of our region?

 

[Rico444]

Syracuse?

Good guess, but they haven't had any recent success.

 

[Waquoit]

Syracuse?

We're already playing Le Moyne so playing Cuse wouldn't really add anything.

 

[HuskyCLT]

Is this a riddle when you say "rich?" I'm guessing an Ivy, maybe Yale.

 

[Omahabound]

Vermont

 

[Hunt for 7]

If we guess the answer how long before we know the rumor is accurate? If it is secret will we ever officially find out?

If it is a riddle which I hope it is I will go with HuskyCLT answer…..and if he is right kudos to the OP for creativity and some insider scoop and to the member who figured it out.

 

[GoConn]

Syracuse?

Recent success eliminates the Canadiens.

 

[UCLJ0211]

Yale or UVM are my guesses

 

[auror]

Haven't we played pretty much every school ever in our history? Or does that mean in Hurley's tenure?

Fairfield?

 

[Eric K]

Bryant?

 

[UCFan1513]

Played Harvard in a secret scrimmage a couple years ago

 

[Waquoit]

Bryant?

I think Yale is in the Bryant category as well.

I thought Providence is considered a conference game?

Why the riddle? Will the UConn mafia smoke you out for sharing this information?

 

[ctchamps]

Indiana and the winner’s prize is Mullins!

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Why the riddle? Will the UConn mafia smoke you out for sharing this information?

Simple answer: I'm not familiar shouldering the immense responsibility of "insider information", so just double-checked with my source to see if it's cool to share it here and he said wait until it's confirmed, so mum is the word.

 

[HooperScooper]

I think Yale is in the Bryant category as well.

I remember James Jones saying something about UConn. Is this what you are referring to:

Pete Janney: Do you want to play UConn again?

James Jones: I want to play a lot of teams who won’t play us, so the answer is yes.
