Re: Conference Realignment

Question for the Football guys in the know. What is our 2025 schedule going to look like? How many minimum MAC teams do we have to schedule as part of the conference for year 1? We already have 10 games scheduled but only 2 against MAC teams (Bowling Green and Buffalo). So we can easily add 2 MAC g...

Re: First reaction: UMass to the MAC

Well with Clemson now suing the ACC in addition to FSU, we might be in a bit of a wait and see mode for the next round of conference disintegrations (who will follow suit and leave for the SEC/B1G and will it have ramifications on the AAC to grabe teams like USF, Memphis, and Tulane and then what mi...

Re: First reaction: UMass to the MAC

Bamford apparently said there's potential for MAC to start soccer back up, and a couple of the MAC schools have very good programs there (especially Akron).

Re: Money talks

Oh, didn't know that. Thanks Thought we left to go Independent And that clause was only triggered because Temple left to go to the AAC (well, it was still technically the Big East at the time, I believe). They would have been happy with the status quo had the realignment bug not caused all that act...

Re: A10 Tourney 2024

I would love a run to the A10 championship game, no matter the result. And I agree that it would likely net us in the NIT...which I would also be happy about. That would be a great turnaround from the past few years. It is kind of funny that our most likely path to the finals would be through two te...

If they lose they'll lose seeding in the NCAA tournament. They want to win out in order to get the best seed possible there.

Re: Coach Frank Martin

I guess we're not cutting Frank's salary, as has been speculated. A quote from the press conference: "UMass director of athletics Ryan Bamford confirmed on Thursday that UMass will increase its men’s basketball budget upon entrance to the Mid-American Conference for the 2025-26 academic year.&...

Re: Game 30, 2023-24: Fordham (3/6)

It worked out. Hopefully Dayton does what they're expected to do and we can grab a double bye. Top 5 is already better than I expected. Top 4? Hell yeah I'll take it.
