Yes. BYU announced and I believe Clemson too. Need a 4th team now.

So if UConn plays BYU then I guess that rumored game at TD Garden in Boston is a no go.

It could happen but all that article says is BYU is participating.

This would stink. Jimmy V is a great event but theres a 99% chance this is a Tuesday night at 9:30

Would you rather play NJIT at 7 at Gampel on December 9?

You would think BYU would play Clemson, then we would play another more big time program as the real main event of the evening.

Correct. If that BYU game in Boston is actually happening then they won't play each other in the Jimmy V Classic. Obviously. Which is why I said "if".

Honestly probably yes. Odds are we are going to play a mid tier b10 team. Plenty of other MSG events/games we can play in.

IF we get a top tier opponent then I would change my stance

 

[aboogieee]

Hm.

 

[BlueandOG]

I love any opportunity to play at MSG. New York's team!

 

[HooperScooper]

Hm.

Thanks. O.K. that settles that discussion. Too bad. Would have loved the Huskies in Boston.

It was a great atmosphere two years ago v UNC.

Hope they can match UConn up with either a Michigan, Michigan State, Alabama, Purdue, or Louisville

Nice! So far we have Arizona and Texas at home. And Florida at the Garden. Love the slate so far!

 

[StllH8L8ner]

Looking forward to the thread when AD Dave announces the out of conference venue splits with Zona, Texas and last minute add UNC @ Gampel, and Coppin St, Fairfield and Cheney Univ at XL.

The game will also be a rematch: Florida beat UConn in the 2025 NCAAs en route to its national title

I think they should add “the real champions classic” to the name of the tournament
