2015-2016 OOC Games

I think it's about time to move on from last season's another
disappointment.
We have some exciting additions, including a true PG who sat out
last year, and a surprising return of an old face.
Just wanted to know if you all have any early info on our OOC
schedule? Any well know opponent? Any early season tournament?

Somehow, it always seems that SBU comes out with its OOC
schedule later than the others. I'm looking forward to hearing
about some good match-ups, but would especially like to see some
good teams agree to play at the arena. The only one I'm pretty
sure of at this point is that Hofstra will be at "The Island"
this year.

Princeton will be here also but other than that I have no idea.
I agree it would nice to see a few high mid majors or maybe a
major program here. I understand Northeastern is hosting
Michigan State in December. If we could get a Buffalo or VCU
here it would be great. Maybe Coach P can coax UConn to come
across the sound that game would sell seats . One game like that
a season would be terrific for our program.

Hofstra will be playing here, too. I was told the bigger schools
like VCU or UConn won't come to SB and play not because of fear
of losing, but because it all has to do with TV time and money.
If Uconn agrees to play SB at SB, that school in their
conference, who they could be playing, instead loses air time
and millions.. That's what I was told by an insider. I am sure
there's a little more to it than that but $$$ is the driver when
it comes to scheduling home games. This is why mid major schools
always have a very tough time scheduling games, and out of
desperation they will throw in one or two non Div1 schools just
to fill the schedule!!

Hammer I agree it is about money and some prestige. Duke lax
was here this past season with no problem they use a game like
that for recruiting purposes mostly. But bring Coach K and his
Duke hoops team to Long Island it would need an act of Congress.
I doubt very much they would lose except in dollars .

Hopefully there won't be any non-D1 games this year. It'd be
nice to see a buildup of local rivalries like Fordham, St.
Francis, LIU, Columbia, and of course Hofstra.

I would add Manhattan , Iona and Wagner to that local list .
These games hopefully would get some local media attention .
So we will see who we play hopefully later this summer.

Agreed!! St.Johns would be great, too. Probably won't happen
unless SB moves out of the AE, and that's not happening either.
If Albany not in talks to move out we certainly aren't!!!!

The Wolf Pack would be a nice addition to our OOC schedule for
sure .
