This event appears to have us playing VMI first, then either Northern Arizona or the school formerly known as IPFW.
We also get a game against DePaul as part of this, but in Chicago. Second meeting ever according to this release. The other meeting was in Vermillion in the 1938-39 season. Neat stuff.

There also is the previously announced Big Sky-Summit Challenge. USD hosts EWU on Jan 3 and visits Montana on Jan 6. I wonder if that means conference play will start in December, or the second week of January. Usually it has been the first week of January while students are away.

Conference season begins before Christmas. Get (2) games in and one or two between Christmas and New Years. But you’re right…no students

Western Illinois leaving reduces the number of conference games from 18 to 16. I believe the 2024 Summit League tournament doesn't start until March 8. This leaves 8 full weeks between the Big Sky - Summit challenge and the Summit League tournament. Will be interesting to see what the conference schedule looks like.

Seems like it's getting harder and harder to schedule OOC games with power 5 opponents. I saw SDSU's schedule a few weeks back and it's nothing to really get excited about either. Big dogs just don't want to take the chance on getting beat and even if they win the new rating system holds them accountable. Every team talks about upping their strength of schedule to help out the league overall, but if the majors won't cooperate there's not much that can be done. With the evolution of super conferences in football, I fear the same might be true with future "money" games.

Need a scheduling arrangement with the MVC members of the MVFC. Perhaps the 4 Dakotas and a rotating group of 4 MVC teams. Could be MBB only or go with MBB & WBB.

Used to get Drake. N Iowa would be one. I heard lack of a airport was a reason but its not a big drive from SF or SC

USD is 40 minutes from the nearest commercial airport. It probably takes that long, if not longer, to get to Denver's campus from their airport. That travel time is likely true of many schools in major cities. |

Those guys definitely owe us for making us play Murray State in football. Let's get some home-and-homes with UNI, Illinois State, SIU, Indiana State, Murray State (I would actually be quite glad to see their basketball team come visit). |
