From earlier today:

This would be instead of Le Moyne?

 

[HooperScooper]

MSG would make sense. Then we can show everyone that UConn is New York's college team and not Syracuse. Although they may have retired this below already.

What’s in it for us?

We have been asking for more regional cupcakes to start the season. Cuse is perfect

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Games against Cuse in MSG are always a good idea.

Would you rather play Lemoyne?

 

[YearoftheHusky]

Is this a buy game?

 

[UCFan1513]

Might hurt our SoS

 

[EROCK CONN]

It’s never a good idea to lower yourself but I would like to play them — basically the same as playing Sacred Heart and Southwest Texas State.

We will still play cupcakes. Why elevate two struggling programs who tried to drown us in the past?

A: if Fox throws enough cash to make it worth our while

It's the kind of thing where if this is replacing an a game v. UMES and still playing the big time games as part of home and homes then sure but if, using this season an example, if it replaces playing Gonzaga at MSG or Baylor at home or Texas away then it's a downgrade.

I assume next year specifically Autry will be on an very hot seat after they miss the tourney again this year, making it even more difficult to recruit in the offseason to avoid the inevitable departure.
