Cowards! To make matters worse, they only leave the Cincinnati area as a whole for 1 non-conference game (excluding MTE, which is a good one). Truly pathetic, but it's hard to expect anything less from a Pitino. Quote
kreed5120 Posted July 23 Report Posted July 23 (edited) Last year the non-conference schedule was released on August 15th and the year before August 12th. It will be here before we know it. I'm a bit surprised there hasn't been more leaks on what games are on the schedule. I feel we knew a handful or so by this time last year, including what MTE we would be playing in.

FWIW, I remember UNC playing at Cleveland State some years ago because they had a player from the area who was a senior, and this was a way they honored their departing players.

kreed5120 Posted August 6 Report Posted August 6 Last year the adventure bracket was 8 teams and consisted of 3 games. Not sure how the format will he this year with 6. Perhaps they're still 2 TBD. Quote

zippy5 Posted August 7 Report Posted August 7 6 is weird, assuming 2 byes? Which the front runners for those would be us, Yale and Belmont imo Quote

csims0917 Posted August 8 Report Posted August 8 I feel like getting a bye would hurt you cause you play one less game Quote
zippy5 Posted August 8 Report Posted August 8 4 hours ago, csims0917 said: I feel like getting a bye would hurt you cause you play one less game Makes me think it's two groups of 3 for a round robin with the winners playing in a final. I don't know if any coach would sign up and possibly get one less game in. Unless the bye teams played each other separately? Which also wouldn't make sense because they'd be most likely to play each other in the final too 1 Quote

I don't know if any coach would sign up and possibly get one less game in. It's only a 3 day event. A group of 3 round robin would take 3 days to do as one of the teams would have a bye each day. Add in the final where you face the winner of the other group and it would require 4 day tournament to complete. We might have to just wait and see what they decided on. 1 Quote
