An absolute abomination and disrespect to the season ticket holder in the face of raising prices.
It’s an NCAA problem not a UConn AD problem. Too many neutral site games now & not enough home & homes.

Luckily the Big East will have three, maybe four top 10 teams in the country & potentially six top 25 teams. Plenty of exciting home games this year.

Speaking for myself, I'm not saying you need Kansas or UNC at home every year, but how about not scheduling the absolute dreck of division 1 basketball? Kenpom ranks for 2023 below (there were 361 teams last year in D1 for reference).

Northern AZ - 213
Stone Hill - 331
miss valley st - 357
Manhattan - 306
New Hampshire - 284
Ark pine bluff - 322

One thing I can confirm is the Arkansas Pine Bluff game on 12/9 will be at Gampel. Andrea Bocelli is at XL.
Nov 11th XL has Wolf Pack hockey so that's all a likely Gampel date.

Yeah, I mean I’m not a season ticket holder anymore so I can’t complain. Nonetheless, that is the norm in college scheduling these days. I wrote it earlier in this thread but of the top 10 teams in the NET from the ‘22-23 season on average they each played 6.5 games vs. Q4 schools.

Good lord, all this fanbase does is whine.
My only real "home" game is at PC (like you with DePaul I suppose), so I just chuckle at it. It is a much better slate of TV games than in person games. But sometimes those are the breaks.

To me, it's not even so much the NET/KP rankings, but those schools are just dreadful from a fan perspective with the exception of New Hampshire which is at least a regional flagship.

Oh you mean like the posters that would cite Hurley not having any NCAA wins in "5" seasons back this February and how that was unacceptable? Who's take was that again?

If we were in the American still, sure, this would be dreadful. But season ticket holders will see the following teams at XL or Gampel:

Top 10 Marquette
Top 10 Creighton
Top 10-ish Nova
Top 25 St. Johns
Top 25-ish Xavier
Top 25-ish PC
Georgetown led by Cooley

Pretty stacked, to be honest.

Folks forget those games like they don’t exist.
 
It is disgraceful that there hasn’t been a good OOC game in years. But it’s not a 100% on UConn.

That's only 4 teams >300. One year the GOAT had 5.

I guess that I am a whiner, but my season tickets are a very significant financial commitment for me. I can't help but feel that I am being taken advantage of when I have to pay for this hideous slate of games. I understand that we need some easy wins on the schedule, but couldn't we at least schedule some local teams like Central, Fairfield, QU or Sacred Heart?

What made you write the check? Was it the thumbscrews? Waterboarding?
 
It's embarrassing. They don't deserve to see a single good Big East home game with their tickets
It's just weird and complaining for the sake of complaining at this point. If we sucked and were in the AAC whine away but we just won the national championship and have a stacked home/neutral/away schedule and it's still a cry fest with these fans.

Sorry to hear you got scammed on your season tickets. Most if not all the season ticket packages I saw included the great slate of Big East home games we have this season

Of course not having any NCAA wins wasn't acceptable. He just went out and won 6 of them in a row.

You'll get to see a bunch of ranked matchups at home, quit whining.
 
Ya want a great strength of schedule?
We do. Sorry they aren’t home games.

I think it’s ok for Hurley to have the cupcakes at home to tweak his team.
