When can we expect tickets to go on sale?

Selling out a charity game would be amazing optics.

I’m sure that will happen. Lots of URI fans around as well.

A Dan Hurley celebration day

 

[Hey Adrien!]

The idea of charity exhibitions, as a whole, is fantastic. Love the matchup too and love that the location is close to both fanbases.

 

[Umami Zen]

All good-Great for each fanbase. Hope Andrea is with us on this. LOL

Never seen the Huskies play in person although I have watched almost every game for the past 30+ years. This will be my first game in person and my brother’s too. Can’t wait!!! I live in Montville so I’ve been waiting for something like this to occur.

Huskies gotta show up and sell the arena out. I'll be there

 

[mauconnfan]

Sounds like I should hit the game and stay over for my birthday gambling the next day!

So UConn vs the best team in Rhode Island? That may be worth attending in person.

 

[elmcityboy]

see y'all at the $1/$2 tables before and/or after the game.

It would be cool to coordinate a Boneyard Poker game surrounding this event!

That made me giggle a bit, but overall, the overall quality of every team in Rhode Island is pretty darn good.

Providence, Rhode Island, Bryant and Brown are all at least in the top-half of the teams in the nation.

Any idea on what time the game will be?

Would have loved to go see this game in person. Won't be able to drive up from NY due to work. Any chance it will be livestreamed ?

Sometimes these exhibitions are televised and sometimes not. Field of 68 actually just had an open offer out to schools to livestream these exhibitions for them, so worst case scenario Goodman calls the game. 2nd worst case scenario is there is no livestream.

Great to see Danny paying back the URI Program for his time spent there with some revenue for their Program. Like Coach K said- Time for Danny to lead the NCAA.

The NCAA waiver-approved charity game will conclude the Hall of Fame's weekend's festivities, which includes the Class of 2024 Enshrinement Ceremony on Sunday, October 13, in Springfield, Massachusetts – the Birthplace of Basketball. All net proceeds from the game will benefit Coaches vs. Cancer and the American Cancer Society.

Don't think URI or UConn are financially benefitting from this game.

I used to, but not this time. The issue is also that next day is a work day.
