Really impressed with MI each time he speaks. We have a good one for sure. Very excited for the future and while proud of this past year, certainly not satisfied.

Gulf Coast Showcase would be a great event to attend... Thanksgiving week though.

It would be a great if they could get into the Gulf Coast Showcase.

I live in Ft Myers and I would be able to see 3 games. that would be great.

I live in Englewood, Florida and was the sole none family fan at the Hen's tourney games in Kissimmee, Florida last year!! Had a good time talking to some of the players and coaches family. Would love to see them down here in Ft. Myers.

Non UD schedule related but Brey is bringing Notre Dame to Howard next season. Former Brey and UD assistant Kenny Blakeney is Howard's HC.

Next years opponent GW has added 3 transfer big men and a guard to next years squad.

Matthew Moyer, 6'8 who played sparingly at Vandy and Syracuse and is eligible
Hunter Dean, 6'10 from Southern Miss who will be a mid year transfer
Ricky Lingo 6'8 from Maryland who I believe has to sit next year
James Bishop 6'3 guard from LSU who will sit next year.

They also return 2 rising soph's in 6'7 Jamison battle who avg 11.6 and 6'9 Chase Paar who avg 5 and 5 as a freshman. Paar missed most of OOC and did not play against us this past season.
Maceo Jack, their wing guard and Jameer Nelson jr also return with both avg 11/game.

This will be a solid A10 club coming to the BOB next year.

Not Delaware related but a link for OOC contracts for Iowa basketball and what they are paying for teams to come to Ames. Roughly $500k in guarantee games. Big10 money makes it easy to pay for these games.

Youngstown State contract with RMU. There is a rumor out there about RMU joining the horizon so interesting to see this in the contract plus the financial penalty for cancelling the game.

Announcement expected this week. Horizon for most sports, Big South for football.

Sources: If the NCAA announces a college basketball start date of 11/25, the Gulf Coast Showcase will likely slide from a start date of 11/23 & be played a few days later.

Field includes Akron, East Carolina, Indiana State, Delaware, Fordham, Middle Tennessee, Omaha, & Vermont.

GW's James Bishop (LSU transfer) receives a waiver and can play this year. They also have Syracuse big man transfer Moyer who had some nice games as a freshman and he is eligible. They also return 3 starters...

Had this game penciled in a as a possible really good home win for us....before Mutts and Darling left.

Assuming there is even an OOC season.

So does this mean no OOC games?
