Interest continues on roster moves. Rightfully so....
But, a next, near term subject of interest coming up will be what kind of schedule will the new staff be cobbling together for the coming year. Any nuggets of information out there on what they are thinking, offers, actions - beyond the generalities of the opening press conference - as to opponents, venues, dates, COVID make-ups and accommodations? To which MTE's have the Aggies been invited, and which invitation(s) will they accept this season? Anybody hear anything yet?
I see some notices of games contracted and being announced by some programs across the country already. The topic is beginning to creep up on us. Just figured I'd put it out there, glean any information anyone might have heard regarding the schedule detail for our favorite home team (if any has been made known).

I have nothing, but here's a link that shows how the pre-season/Thanksgiving tourneys are shaping up. BSU, CSU, SDSU, Nevada, Wyoming, and UNLV already have invites but nothing showing USU yet.
USU site does have us playing an unknown exhibition on Oct 29, but no dates on @BYU and home vs. St Maries.

I heard from my sources that there will be no games scheduled or played by USU basketball this next season unless Coach Odom brings in a former 4* point guard from a P5.

So Rylan Jones then?

I'd love for us to go to the Myrtle Beach classic. I was planning to go last year before the world went haywire.

Thanks... I see 3 “TBA” slots still open at Orlando Invitational on that website. Thanksgiving at Disney World would be a nice venue for some holiday hoops.

Oh I'll be there, hope treesap, android aggie and other eastcoast Aggies join me.
Also Aggies from everywhere. I was at the football game against Wake Forest two years ago and the Aggie crowd was great. Hope we get another good size crowd for this. I only live a few hours away from the Old Dominion campus and have wanted the Aggies to play them or another Virginia school for a while. Too bad it isn't in Virginia, but I'll take this.

This Aggie on the East Coast will be there! I was ecstatic to see the Aggies were going to Myrtle Beach this year!

Glad you'll be there Werner Heisenberg! I was a little skeptical about your actions in Germany during the 30's, but I'll let it slide knowing you're an Aggie!

Maybe he can drive his RV there and cook for everyone at the tailgate party.

I don’t have the RV anymore. My business associate and I had to take it to the junkyard.

Back to the Topic of this thread:
So, we have the MTE in Myrtle Beach. Any other news on the non-conference schedule? Getting to be summer and these things should be sorting themselves out......

I would think Odom's Baltimore connections landed that one.
Right on, my two alma maters going head-to-head. I hope USU crushes them.
This is a great mid-major matchup. Kudos to Coach O for landing it. It'd be nice to get a warm-up game at home against bo diddly tech to work out the kinks, but I think this will be the opener.
(EDIT: check that, the season starts November 9. Maybe we can get Idaho St up to the Spectrum).

This will be a challenging opener, to put it mildly. From the Richmond press release - "Richmond will return 15 of its 16 players from the 2020-21 season, when the Spiders went 14-9. Richmond's roster includes four 1,000-point scorers who elected to use their additional year of COVID-19 eligibility to remain at Richmond: Nathan Cayo (senior), Jacob Gilyard (senior), Grant Golden (senior), and Nick Sherod (senior)."
I'll point out that last year's Richmond team beat Kentucky, Loyola Chicago, and was a bubble team for a good portion of the year. They faltered down the stretch and ended up getting a 2 seed in the NIT. In Lunardi's pre-season bracket, they are first four in with an at-large. Would be a fantastic win. They will have the advantage in terms of chemistry and cohesion. It will be an excellent test for us.

Yep, this will be a huge test. I certainly hope for a win, but think this will be a very difficult game for us. Not to mention playing 2 time zones away when it is only a short bus ride for Richmond. Richmond was good last year and will for sure have the upper hand in terms of chemistry etc. Overall it is a great matchup. One of those games that if you win it is a resume booster, but if you lose it will probably not hurt your resume. Aggies will play 4 games on the eastern seaboard this coming season.

Awesome to see more Aggie games being played on the East Coast! Keep them coming.
And yeah Richmond is a solid program. Saw them play George Mason a few years ago. Like us they had a great season stolen by covid. They would have been in the 2020 tournament with a shot to make a run.

Not the opener after all. We get UC-Davis in the Spectrum.
Wonder if we’ll try to squeeze another east coast game in between Richmond and the Myrtle Beach and just stay out there the whole time. Maybe a game @UMBC?

Scheduling looking pretty good so far.
This was along my thinking also, as to just staying on the "Right-hand coast" for the week between Annapolis to Myrtle. (Maybe pencil in a visit to Wake Forest, his father's old stomping grounds?)
