2024-25 Basketball Discussion

We can beat UW-Madison but watch us lose to UW-Milw

So long as we're not letting UW-Platteville hang around on us.

Color me cautiously optimistic!

I really like this add from Megan and her team. They're adding a live DJ to all home games for men's and women's b-ball this year. Should really elevate the in-person experience. The only thing I've seen so far is a few people complaining about less band, but I'm not sure that's a bad thing. Current college students will be way more into relevant music than what the band plays. But, at the same time, it doesn't have to be an either or, this can be a good thing all around.

Also of note, the DJ is a UNI alum as well. Super cool!

Here we freaking go, boys!

It feels like this means everything, yet absolutely nothing at the same time. Hopefully a sign of good things to come. The big thing to me is being able to score on a team that's very likely bigger than us, after losing our best two scorers.

Would love to see a box score from the scrimmage. Very curious about minutes, guard lineups, and how many 3's were taken. I don't really have a good feel on this teams identity.

The only kindof concrete information I've gotten on how it went is that it was a legit game as far as both squads played their actual guys a vast majority of the time, and that Tytan struggled (not surprising with him trying to play the 4 spot against Wisconsin) and Leon Bond played REALLY well.

That's still impressive considering we still scored 80+ if Tytan didn't have a good game.

Bond led the way with 14 & 6.

Bond led the way with 14 & 6.

Where/how did you find this information?

If Bond is a beast, we have a chance to be something this season (until he transfers in May).

Looking like pretty good odds basketball will get a win over a team that offers scholarships before football does.

Lol. Could Farley get fired?

On another topic - it is 5 days before the first game, and I have yet to receive my tickets in the mail.
What about the rest of you?

Got mine in email probably two weeks ago.

['70 Grad]

Thanks, BC. I know old-school is slower, but this is cutting it close.
Called UNITIX and they said that tickets were mailed out late last week. Hopefully they will show up here soon!

Digital tickets were sent weeks ago for both men's and women's season tickets.

[Schack]

I got my traditional paper tickets a few days ago but no parking pass. Anyone received parking passes or they on the way?
