Morgan State and NCCU are home games. William & Mary (not confirmed may be a home game).

Morgan State and NCCU are home games. William & Mary (not confirmed may be a home game).

So even if William & Mary is a home game, that puts us at 7 non conference home games. That leaves room for one 1 more home game. Unfortunately this makes me believe the Louisville game fell through. Hopefully I am wrong I just don't see anywhere in the schedule for an extra home game except for the rumored 11/13 date for Louisville.

There was also an unconfirmed game posted in this thread against Georgia Southern, so W&M and Georgia Southern would round it out to 8. Plink posted it and usually hes pretty accurate.

Plink is about 1-3 so far with (Louisville still up in the air)

He also posts rumors on what he hears, so its not 100% what he says by default. Regardless, hes a reliable source and has been for a long time on here.

I thought the rumored Louisville game was AT Louisville, not EBA.

How many total non-conference games 30-18 = 12 + 1 for the extra Cancun game, right? I'm guess we'll be at 31 games this year during the regular season. So, that gives us 8 home games + 2 neutral site games + away at JMU = 1 unannounced away game (Louisville?). I think that's the math.

Edit: I just remember we have an announce away game at Auburn, so that would mess up my math here.

thats my point, the rumored Louisville game is away so I don't see how we could fit another home game in the schedule. I have a feeling the Louisville game fell through and Mason scheduled another home game against anyone not Lousville.

Obviously I know nothing lol, just speculation, and I am most likely wrong

I pray every night that Louisville announces their schedule so I don't have to read DJ3 freaking out about it anymore.

DJ3 posts too much to be Pat. Pat can't have time for all this masonhoops.com plus posting 10 instagram videos of him playing basketball with Jerian Grant and 12 year olds too

Didn't want to start another thread, but eventually, the A-10 schedule will come out so I thought this would fit here:

Ouch, ranked 10th and not a single mention in the article or on any of the lists. Double ouch coming from one of our local writers.

I'm confident we will finish higher than 10th and Otis and Jaire will be in the discussion for all conference, while Mar and Wilson may have shots at all rookie.

I also loved how he basically said Dayton and vcu won't make the tournament this year, but ranked them 5/6.

I think Mason is going to finish between 5-7 this year.

Clearly, Jon didn't do his homework. No chance we end up 10th.
