We'll be opening up at Charleston next year on a Friday night. Home and home. Not sure if its a 2 or 4 year deal.

Does it replace anyone on the current schedule or does it fill the void with less MAAC games.

Holy Cross replaces Cornell. With no other series ending this year, I believe Charleston is an addition based on the MAAC going to 18 games. Hopefully, UMass will be added as well.

Im pretty sure we're done with UVM. Or will be after this year.

One more year after this in the current contract with UVM. Series started Mitch's first year and the first of six straight losses ended our long home winning streak.
Series with Bucknell ends this season, as does FGCU. This is year 2 of 4 with Hofstra.

Latest on the schedule for next season:
Home as part of basic season ticket package:
St. Bona
Hofstra
FGCU
Holy Cross
TBD
Home as add on to basic package:
Albany*
Road Games
Vermont
Bucknell
Louisville*
Memphis*
Bryant*
College of Charleston
Lehigh
* Part of Gotham Classic
Because the Albany game is part of an exempt event, People renewing season tickets will get first crack at options for that game in terms of seat location. Albany season ticket holders will have the same option during the same period. Those opting for tickets will have them assigned (not necessarily the same seats as the basic package) and then the balance of the seats will be available to the public.
We will have traded Kansas, GW, UNCA, Cornell, Arkansas-Pine Bluff and two MAAC games for Louisville, Memphis, Bryant, Charleston, Holy Cross, Lehigh and TBD. (High Point with coach Scott Cherry is a possibility).
I think it is an overall upgrade and certainly the home schedule is an upgrade. No games will be played in Glens Falls.
League is apparently requiring an average of 15 home or neutral site games over a two year period, so we can look forward to one more home game per year than we have had in recent years.

That's a solid schedule. Already the fewer maac games is paying dividends. It will be interesting to see who we don't play.

That's a good schedule I wish we played that schedule last year. Hopefully we're up to it. With the last home I wouldn't be surprised to play a weaker opponent. The schedule is already strong enough and the team needs WINS to build confidence.

Solid all the way around.
As an aside I'd like to keep UVM for now, they are a solid program. Why drop them, because Jimmy can't win vs Becker?
