That is a very winnable bracket, which is good because winning the whole thing is the only way we will actually gain any exposure from this.

K-State is going to be really, really good. Missouri will be okay. Penn was a tournament team last year.

There's some meat there, we just have to win that first one because EKU and Kennesaw are BAAAADDD.

As long as we beat Penn, who is decent, we should get 3 quality games. That's all you can ask from a preseason tournament. Not sure what else you are expecting.

That Kansas St game (assuming it happens) will be a tough one. They were an Elite 8 team last year and I don't believe anybody who played meaningful minutes for them was a senior. Not sure if they'll lose anybody to the draft though. If not, they're going to be very good.

Reeading tea leaves. We'll have a home game at 6:00 on Friday, November 9th. A doubleheader and wanting a big crowd for the Women's Preseason NIT is the only reason I can think of to have the women tip at 8:30 that night with no TV involved in the women's game time decision.

Thanks '73!

Makes sense as well. I would pencil us in for a home game on opening night the 6th, then. WIll update.

[UNIAlum2010]

Not sure if the date was nailed down but Grand Canyon released their schedule today and the game at UNI is Dec 19th (Wed).

We are also returning the game at a 'neutral site' next year at the Talking Stick Resort Arena (Home of the Suns). Same setup that GCU has with Nevada and Boise State this year.

I'll give GCU this, they are spending their vast resources incredibly wisely.

Elgin announced today that this is the last year for the MVC/MWC Challenge.

The fact that this isn't immediately followed up by we are adding a challenge with (insert other mid-major conf here) is troubling...

I believe he did say they're working on something to replace it, so hopefully something works out.
