This adds to the game against Arizona, Iowa st., BIG/ACC challenge and playing in the Peurto rico tipoff. Should make for some amazing nonconference games!

By beating the tar out of the team and hastening the end of the Johnny Dawkins era.

I'm sure that's agreeable to you lot.

A lot of people do care. Why do you think there is so much interest in the Director's Cup? We hang our hat on being the best combination of academics and athletics and Stanford is the only school that can claim superiority. We crush them in football and men's basketball and that is good enough for me.

A commenter on UMHoops.com made a good point that we should be getting another home game in the B1G/ACC Challenge this coming year since we just came off two seasons with road games in that competition (2010-11 and 2011-12). Don't know if it will happen but it's worth watching and I hope Brandon mentions it to the powers that be.

If we get a good ACC team on the road, this will be the toughest non-conference we have seen in a while. Arizona and ISU will both be tough.

I'm sure we'll be away.  We were away two years in a row because the addition of Nebraska meant the schedule got a little messed up, but I'm sure until there are more changes they will alternate everyone. Since we'll likely be a top team preseason, I'm sure we'll get a top ACC team.  Take a look at who was away last year, and I bet we get one of the top 2 best of those.  

As for Arizona, I bet they'll still be pretty good.  They were really young this past year.

I'll bet you a shiny penny that we are @Syracuse. A Final Four rematch with the home court tilting the storyline towards a chance for the Orangemen to get revenge for that loss.

Great matchup in this one. With the Puerto Rico tournament and Arizona coming in to AA should be a good non conference schedule. I wonder who they'll get in the B1G/ACC matchup. Personally hoping for Duke or UNC.

Hi all-

I don't have enough points to post, but have any of you read about the new student seating policy?  It's first come first serve and prices for student tickets are 280 plus 15 dollars of service charges, which comes out to forty dollars a ticket (not counting the service charge).  Can anyone with enough points make a thread for me?

Thanks!
