OOC games. Who would you like?

Y’all realize we’ve played Cuse almost every year since they left?
 
Plus some rotation of Hartford, Yale, Quinnipiac, Sacred Heart, CCSU, Fairfield before of out-of-state cupcakes with no discernable fan appeal.
I've been saying this awhile now. In state schools will put more people in the seats.

True dat. When Yale won at Gampel a few years ago they almost filled half of the visitor section.
 
Wisconsin since it's 15 minutes from my house...

Though I'd take any B1G team besides Rutty at this point. I miss the HaH's we used to have with teams like Michigan and Indiana. Getting Sparty would be great but gonna be hard with the 20 game B1G schedule and the Champions Classic for them going forward.

Does anyone have any insights into how Michigan State and Kansas got into the "Champions Classic"? Especially Michigan State with it's two NC's and the most recent in 2000.
Why not Cincinnati? They won two in a row in 61 + 62.

Big 10, Big 12, SEC, ACC....it's an ESPN P5 kinda thing.
 
Doesn't matter to me. I'm pretty much just running on inertia these days. If there's a game in the XL, I'm going.

An early season New England tournament would be cool one year. Uconn, umass, unh, Vermont, Maine, Rhode Island for the state university schools and then 2 other schools to make 8 (hopefully providence plus one other) but now that I’m thinking of it, some teams in the same conference may end up playing each other which probably can’t happen. But an all New England tournament can still be made or even an all ct tournament with uconn and a combo of some of Quinnipiac, central, sacred heart, Yale, Fairfield. We play a lot of these teams anyway which historically haven’t been exciting . It would be more fun to just see how the champion of the state is and would actually put huge pressure on uconn to win against schools with lower caliber recruits.
 
Ive always wanted a home and home against Unc and Ucla and Duke. Would love to see us go into CAmeron Indoor.

There was a home and home with UNC in the early/mid 2000’s. Duke won’t schedule a home and home with anyone but maybe UNC and UCLA would.

Yeah i believe that was 03 and 04. Would love to do it again.

I would love to go to Cameron and win! Could care less about UCLA though.
 
Duke hasn't played a home and home series in a decade.

Well technically St. John's is a home and home since they play most of their home games in the Garden... :)
 
2013 Last year in BE
2014 no meeting
2015 in Atlantis
2016 NYC
2017 NYC
2018 NYC

The Atlantis doesn't count, we didn't schedule them and playing them at a venue a thousand miles away with only a couple of hundred fans attending is just not the same

But we have renewed that rivalry, and we all hope it "continues"

Hurley does not want long distance travel ( like UCLA) except for tournaments. Good philosophy. I know these guys are young and in shape but as anybody who travels multiple time zones knows it is tiring and throws your body clock off. Jet lag is very real.
 
I'd like to see a home and home with Kansas of course. It would be nice if we played in Allen Field House this time, not KC.

A New England tournament with PC, BC, UVM, URI and Harvard would be fun.

Other than that, just improve the schedule, and upgrade the bottom feeders a bit. I believe we need to play p5 schools as much as we can.
