Not sure how reliable this guy is, but I guess if we have to schedule a FCS team it may as well be one we have some history with in basketball.

Who knows, they'll probably be a full member in the NNBE playing in an 18,000 seat stadium by then.

Sounds like a barn burner,can't wait.If they play at the Rent their might be that many empty seats.

I thought Memphis is taking the permanent FCS spot in our schedule?

With the current predicament of the BE and every other conference trying to upgrade OOC schedules, why are we committing to playing Nova at this point in the space-time continuum?

the only reason nova does these 3 games is because they need to offer something to play bball games vs the big boys still, this is another hint that uconn is in fact not going to be in the big east for long...interesting. i still dont like it, but interesting.

I like the way you really read between the lines, dan. You might be squinting so hard that the lines turn to Egyptian hieroglyphics, but I like it.

Villanova is a great FCS game. Much better that Fordham
Maine or Rhode Island.

Exactly. Why play them?

I know it gets to the point where scheduling FCS teams can be a joke, but Nova is an exception to me and if this holds true, then will be a nice game!

This must mean we are moving to the ACC pretty soon.
