Why 2014 bball will be awesome

[fortebleedsblue]

Look at this exciting schedule:

Central Florida
Eastern Carolina
Tulane
Houston
Memphis
smu
temple
San Diego state
st johns, depaul
marquette
providence
Georgetown
Uconn
Georgetown
Nova
Seton hall
Cinci

One of the weakest bball conferences now.

I think we play Texas in '14. I have no confidence in Manuel. We still don't even have an OOC game in football for 2014, so why would he care that basketball might have to play New Hampshire instead of a decent team?

 

[Kitaman]

Only thing missing is Umess

 

[UChusky916]

quality game in there vs UConn...

oh wait

 

[Tenspro2002]

On the bright side, we might finish higher than 9th in the Big East.

A few years ago Memphis played 4 top 14 teams OOC, finished 23-9 (13-3) and did not make the NCAAs. Granted the NNNNBE is slightly better than C-USA, but you can't put much of a better effort into scheduling than Memphis did that year. Ruh-roh.

Warde, get a home and home with 'Cuse for the next decade right now. Please.

One of the weakest? Are you on crack? I mean this is in no way the BE of old but from an objective standpoint this is a pretty good basketball conference. East Carolina and San Diego State are FB only schools (although SDS has been good in years past). Houston has been recruiting very well over the past couple years and Larry Brown is keeping SMU in the mix with a lot of top prospects. This would probably be the 3rd best basketball conference behind the new ACC and the B1G (if and only if they can remain at their current level).

Unfortunately none of what I just typed matters, because the names on the above list are sure to change in the coming months/years.

ECU and SDSU are not Basketball members, fwiw

Begging to playncuse in bball now far 2 decades have fallen in less than 24 hours... Why would Cuse want to play Uconn... All risk of playing an OOC team that they might lose to let alone giving up a home game to do so. What's in it for them?

I thought SDSU was football only. That aside, that wouldn't be a horrid basketball conference: Memphis, Temple, UConn, Georgetown, Nova, Cinci, Marquette have all been very solid recently, if not this year. PC, SJU look to be on the upswing. DePaul, SHU, etc. suck. It wouldn't be the Big East, but it wouldn't be the A-10 either. Maybe the 5th or 6th best conference.

Excuse me while I vomit.
