Schedule is out.
The first weekend in December is at Niagara followed by at Canisius, which means no homes games from St. Bona on 11/19 to Hofstra on 12/23. Not the best way to build fan interest in my judgment.
By my count, two home games on Fridays, two on Saturdays and three on Sundays. All times TBA. One weekend with home gsames Friday and Sunday and one with two away games.

I'm sure the number of televised games will increase, at least I hope so. I'm not a real fan I just watch the televised games. But that is another discussion.

34 days between home games early on is brutal. I know Old Spice is part of the equation, but we didn't have this problem in 2008-09.
In the end, the Saturday and Sunday games are the ones where the time is really a factor, otherwise I would assume 7PM tips.
Is this a typo, or are the PIG games of the MAAC tourney being played 2 days before the quarters?

Good schedule. Get the Buffalo trip out of the way early. I like more home games later in the year because I expect we will be better as the year goes on. And Saturday night games draw really well with a good fun uptempo improving team. We start with two league games on the road and finish with two on the road so 10 of 16 games will be at the TUC. That's where I think we'll have our success...we will likely struggle on the road but I expect we'll do very well at home.
Only thing that doesn't make sense to me is going head to head with the NFL playoffs (twice vs. Iona). The MAAC seems to always to do it!

Do our season tickets include the first game held at the ARC or are we paying extra for that?
