2016-17 Non-Conference Schedule

[IrwinFletcher]

I doubt we see two in conference:

Nov 11: Vanderbilt
Nov 14: Howard
Nov 17: 2K MSG
Nov 18: 2K MSG
Nov 22: 2K Home
Nov 26: Houston Baptist
Nov 30: Western Carolina
Dec 4: Georgia
Dec 6/7: Buy Game
Dec 10: Wisconsin
Dec 17: Fresno State?

That's 11 games already. Figure there will be at least one more before Big East play on Dec 28. My guess is Dec 21/22 will be a buy game, though they could even slip in a Dec 19 and Dec 22 date. But my guess is Dec 21 at home, Big East on Dec 28, then one in season game in January or February.

Did I miss something, or have they actually announced who our opponent is for the 11/14 2K Classic game at home? I thought the match ups were coming later.

Howard released their schedule and it indicated that they are coming to Marquette.

Check post from 3:20pm. It was just Howard who put out their schedule.

OK. I hadn't clicked the link before. When I did, though, the coach mentioned Michigan and Marquette, but the first game listed on their schedule is 11/26. Not that it matters, but could the 11/22 game be vs. Howard.

Need to fit in a Christmas break as well.

Both breaks fit in there. Finals break Dec 10-17, then winter break Dec 22-28. Whether they play one or two from Dec 19-22, there's still enough time for the break.

I just check the link and the dates for Howard vs Michigan & Marquette have been taken down. It was listed for Howard at Michigan on 11/11 & @Marquette on 11/14.

Don't know which winter break you are talking about. The main one goes into mid-January.

Think he is really referring to the usual break at Christmas week?

Well, that break is giving by the head coach.

I'm sure those dates are probably right. The same thing happened with Belmont last year. Marquette wants to be able to make the announcement themselves. Last year Belmont released the date with MU before Marquette's schedule, the next day it was taken down with a notice saying "that's not finalized". As soon as MU started the schedule release, there was the date just as Belmont had it originally.

And I did mean the Christmas break, which is why I gave the dates that I did. I thought it went without saying that the players would never get a break until mid-January.
