Extra note in here I missed: the game will be at noon and is set to be the first game televised nationally of the season.

When college basketball returns, it will be eight months and 13 days since we last saw our great game. Yes, we're counting.

We're honored to be on center stage and national TV when the ball gets tossed up again. #R1SEWITHUS:

"GW returns four student-athletes who started 18+ games a season ago, led by the sharp-shooting duo of [URL='https://gwsports.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=7274']Jamison Battle and Maceo Jack who finished 1-2 in 3-point field goals made in the A-10 last season. Jameer Nelson Jr. and Chase Paar also logged starters minutes as first-years in 2019-20, and the roster is bolstered this season with a bevy of newcomers who bring major experience. Power conference transfers Matt Moyer (Vanderbilt via Syracuse) and James Bishop (LSU) figure to play key roles for GW, while Siena-transfer Sloan Seymour is now eligible and will form a deep-shooting troika with Battle and Jack after he buried 94 3s in his rookie season in Albany before transferring to Foggy Bottom last season.[/URL]"

Source: The Division 1 Basketball Committee has voted in favor of maximum scheduling flexibility for this season. Teams can play in two MTEs and two teams from the same conference can play in the same MTE.

Waiting now on final approval from D-1 Council.

So we’re gonna get to join a second shitty MTE to open the season?? Anyone know if Longwood has any open games?

https://www.espn.com/mens-college-b...lege-basketball-teams-play-mohegan-sun-bubble:

"A resort casino on tribal land in Connecticut is finalizing plans to host more than 30 college basketball teams as it becomes a modified bubble for several early-season tournaments, including two being moved from New York

The Mohegan Sun has teamed up with the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, which holds its men's Tip-Off Tournament and Women's Challenge there every year, and the Gazelle Group, which runs the Empire Classic and the Legends Classic in New York.

The organizers plan to hold those tournaments and several other "pods'' of games, which will get names in the next few weeks, at the Mohegan Sun, which is owned by the Mohegan Tribe and includes a 10,000-seat arena that is home to the WNBA's Connecticut Sun.

'It's a single site, secluded location, with enormous square footage for social distancing,' said Greg Procino, vice president of basketball operations for the Hall of Fame. 'There are a lot of things that will work in our favor. '

Rick Giles, the president of the Gazelle Group, said that they are still finalizing plans for some games, but they expect about 35 teams from more than a dozen conferences will participate at what they are dubbing "Bubbleville'' between Nov. 25 and Dec. 5, with up to seven games per day.

There will be at least nine 'pods'' of games, beginning with the Empire Classic on Nov. 25-26, which will include Villanova, Baylor, Arizona State and Boston College."

Some teams are already signed up for multiple MTEs, and some of the current MTE fields have 2 teams from the same conference, so it would be awkward if that doesn't get approved... :)

Multiple coaches + administrators I've talked to are dumbfounded by the fact that when they step back and look at the calendar, they can't believe we're a month out from start of season and this is still the state of affairs with scheduling. Major decisions need to come this week

Saint Louis has now lost games with Memphis, San Diego State and Boston College as well as three tilts in the Orlando Invitational.

Billikens still have a road game at Minnesota and a few in Elevate Hoops' MTE in Nebraska.

America East announces 2020-21 sked. The league's going almost exclusively to weekends-only and having teams play each other on back-to-back days, plus building in makeup weeks for March. This is optimal scheduling in a pandemic. Every mid/low-major conf should be doing the same.
