The official 2025-2026 Schedule Thread

Have to be careful with CAA games because the league is not very good. Some of those games could be drains unless we buy a game. If we buy a game it has to be more likely a win than a risk. We can buy a game from American.

UVA and tech haven’t played us in years. Id love to see them interested.

Georgetown refuses for years. Maryland we wont play probably because of Tony’s relationship with KW. If we are going to take a paycheck and beating let it be some team from a p4 in the NE (Nova, Rutgers, St John’s) or Acc (Pitt cuse etc).

Give me a home and home with a Missouri Valley team and maybe like the AAC. Hopefully a better MTE with top 100 opportunities.

Yeah, I wasn't getting into the logistics of why it may or may not happen, just something I'd like to see. The rest is for someone in the AD to figure out. I know Tony has talked about wanting to bring back the BB&T Classic in some form. Maybe if a charity is involved some of these DMV teams will sign up.

In general though, we shouldn't shy away from a game with the CAA from fear of dropping a game. That's the same logic as to why a P4 won't play us on a neutral court, much less in Fairfax. I'd much rather pay to watch a game against an old rival than I would a game that's essentially an exhibition vs some no name school.

From the ACC or Big Ten would love to see Va Tech, UVA, Pitt or Penn State on the schedule. From the Big East maybe Seton Hall, Georgetown or Villanova. On a smaller scale would love to see a home and away with Charleston or UNCW. We have to make it a little stronger than this season to get some respect from the committee!

I don't care who we play, as long as everyone has a good time. Additionally, with the new metrics, unless we win the A-10 or lose no more than 4-5 games we aren't getting into the NCAA tournament.
