MBB Schedule

November 11- Bucknell(Home opener)

Bucknell was like 12-22 last year near the bottom of Patsie League which resulted in the termination the HC. Should be a win for NU at home.

Wondering how much knowledge from last season will be recalled this fall by those who stayed. Since most players are new, and not starters, the danger is that they'll jack up shots to reach double figures in PPG. If they can improve their FG% and buy into taking quality shots after passes, just maybe they'll be OK. Crashing the boards and consistent defense can't hurt. Boy, the portal really ravaged many teams, once again.

Great to see this. Syracuse should be on their schedule every year even if it would be a 1 for 2 or 3 with the home game in Buffalo for now unless somehow the Falls get a new arena.

Good time to renew the deal with SU. They're not a top 10 team and may need time for the new coach to settle in.
Will the 2/3 zone defense continue??

Agree 100%, great "up" game for Niagara Basketball. SU should be in a rebuilding mode with the new coaching staff taking over. Yeah arrange for a 2 for 1 or even a 3 for 1 deal with NU's homer being in Buff.

NU to play Notre Dame ( November 6th )

Scheduling both SU and ND are certainly “up “ OCC games. One can’t accuse Coach P of playing down in terms of scheduling.
