We need another OOC series for 2014/2015 - who will it be?

I wouldn't mind seeing Northwestern put back on the schedule (especially as I live in Chicago). I know they originally were signed to a home-and-home deal a couple of years ago, but for some reason it was canceled. We could do much worse than Northwestern.

I second this!

I've thought Northwestern would be a good get for a while. They have a pretty good history of playing northeastern teams, too. And I like playing Big and B-12 teams rather than just ACC teams. Wouldn't be shocked to see a MAC game though, probably as a one off though. I have a sense that the goal will be 7 home games if at all possible, or maybe 6-5-1 on occasion.

Don't expect to see an ACC school sign up for a deal.

I would like to see Florida State given I currently go to school there. Given the fact that they have no major OOC series outside of Nevada and a recently signed contract for 2019-20 with Boise State, I think it would be a good opportunity to play football in the football-crazy south and get some awareness as we hopefully transition to the ACC.

Agreed - good academic school with an up-and-coming program that's located in a major city. On a personal level it would be by far my easiest trip to a game in a number of years.

Northwestern or G Tech would be cool. We should try to get Kansas. Then a hoops deal with Kansas.

That would require an AD with more than a pulse and partially functioning brain stem.

So we can assume you don't like BYU?

I like BYU very much. I think somebody paid minimum wage from the PysEd Department could have put that togther. Good move. Obvious.
