I think we might take an away game somewhere just for experience and recruiting purposes. I actually wonder if we'll owe Iona a return game.@ORU
@ Wichita St.
OK State
Ore State
Missouri State
Diamond Head Classic in Hawaii (3 games, I believe)
That's the extent of what I have gathered so far. I would expect only those two road games and remaining home games to be of the easier OOC opponent variety. TU probably won't get lucky to get a surprise top 100 win, as with Iona this year.
Are we continuing with UALR? They are a pain in the butt to beat, but all in all, it hasI think we might take an away game somewhere just for experience and recruiting purposes.

I think we made a good decision to continue the rivalries with Wichita St and Missouri St yearly. It will pay off if we keep those series' going. Good long time rivalries close enough to drive to and from. A rivalry should strengthen both teams/programs and those do that. imo
LEC, do you remember the Tubby years when SIU was really good. They had a player by the name of Ashraf Amaya who essentially was their version of Michael Ruffin. Guy was a rebounding monster inside. Those games were incredible. That was when Bradley was good too...Jim Molinari. Hated Bradley fans...they talked trash like no one else and didn't do much to back it up.Bring on the Salukis!
Was it him that got in trouble for brandishing a Ninja Sword at a party? I know that incident was mentioned on HBO's Real Sports on a story they ran about a female track athlete who was dismissed from the team and kicked out of school because she worked as a stripper to subsidize her partial scholarship while Abney's incident (if it was him) went largely unpunished.I believe that's the one!
