Did anyone notice that there is only 2 Saturday home games- Rider and Quinnipiac ?! This is a real problem for people coming out of town for a game. I'm personally running into issues with some of my friends ( Siena Alumni ) who really can't afford to take a day off. And without a doubt the Albany game should have been on a Saturday!

I do agree that the Albany game should have been on a Saturday! I live very, very, far away from TUC and I would have been able to go to that game if it was on a Saturday.
Ah well.
At least I get to see them in two games of the Old Spice Classic and a couple of games in December!

Definitely not an alumni friendly schedule ... Will be able to make Albany game unlike last year's mid-week tipoff ... Probably will make one other game ... Losing Loyola hurt us here in DC ... Hopefully we can get American, GW, George Mason or Navy to play us in the future

As soon as the schedule is released, that's when I notify my boss of my time off for Nov thru April. I not only put in for the known games but also for the first two weeks of the NCAA tourney. Unfortunately I've had to cancel those last two weeks the past three years. I make it my priority to attend as many games as possible. Others may not have the same passion or bosses that understand and allow them the time off. That IS unfortunate. |

I would think George Washington would be the best option for a DC/MD area game considering how close Jimmy and Lonergan are. Maryland could be a longshot. Some mentors don't like to play their ex-assitants if they're real close.
Personally, I'd like to see a George Mason series start up since Paul is there.

Jimmy's mentor at Maryland retired 2 years ago. However, Maryland is moving to the Big Ten and their scheduling will be changing. Who knows if they would want or need the game. |

Wow, that shows you how little I pay attention to that program!! Forgot Danny Mannings boy took over there!! Scratch MD. I'll stick with GW or GM as a possible OOC series. |
