2023-24 Non-Conference Schedule

[TIMMY]

It's only a gimmick if they play at Cook Hall.

If you want a gimmick have it at Hancock the first of a double header with football 1 hour after...for teardown. On homecoming. That's a gimmick

I really think it could get 5,000 though

I went to Wesleyan my freshman year. Still an active alum of a fraternity there. There's a group of 20 going to the game so far. I'll be the guy in red.

Is B.U.T.T behind a paywall? Is it invitation only? I've searched everywhere but I can't find it and I know this is MUST READ material. I'm willing to do WHATEVER it takes.

Not sure you want to see what is behind SgtHulka's paywall.

That is what I've heard. Dec 9 vs Norfolk.

If we are playing in Horton on Dec. 9th, it seems quite possible that WBB vs. Marquette could also be in Horton. Considering the costs of playing in Horton, assuming we use Doug Collins court, that would need to be moved back to RBA which would be a nightmare. Pedon did hint that we could play a game on a restored version of the old court someday, but I don't know if I buy that for this year. Someone might have the scoop, but the way I look at it, it seems more likely than not that WBB vs Marquette will be in Horton.

lol or it could be moving into a new home.

 

[crazzymark]

The old floor at Horton fieldhouse is already down that was done during the early summer

Schedule will be released on Friday

It’s supposed to come out at 10am. Give me Saturday ISU/Bradley games or I riot. Last year was two Wednesdays which is just poor scheduling for the best rivalry in the league. Would also love more weekend home games all together.

You’re gonna be happy! Both games are on Saturday.

The Birds will open league play at UIC and host Murray State l in the two pre holiday conference games.

ISU will play UNI (home) and Indiana State (road) once.

Seems like tons of home Sunday games again. I hate that

As a Browns fan, I'm good with Redbird basketball on Sundays.

@Kentucky then @Drake turnaround is rough.

 

[ScoreboardDotRace]

Schedule is interesting. I don’t see any stretches that are overly soft or overly hard. Of course that’s all on paper right now. I think that’s a plus for the team though.

On a lesser note, can’t say this is the best graphic ISU has put out in regards to clarity. The reading top down versus left to right and home away differentiators could’ve been done more clearly in my opinion instead of the light gray on a red background.

 

[DoubleDeuce]

Only one game against the Panthers and sycamores is a plus.
