Very happy with this year's home ooc schedule. After last year, when our only D-1 home game before January was Valpo, it's great to see Ohio, Illinois State, Eastern Michigan, and Robert Morris at the O'Rena, plus MSU at the Palace, all in December. Having games vs. EMU and RMU on consecutive days does seem a little strange, but it's hard to have a problem with getting to watch more basketball (I guess if we lose a winnable game as a result, though, there will be some complaints...). Hopefully we'll see a major boost in attendance and season ticket sales.

AWESOME I thought for sure it would be on BTN or something. Might be the first time we got an OOC game on either ESPN or the deuce.

He transferred as a walk-on. He was pretty good for IPFW as a true freshman starting point guard two years ago.

I love the RMU game addition! It's always tough to get fellow mid-majors from out of state to come to the Orena, so this is a huge pickup. Hopefully fans will come out to see them after their big NIT upset last year.
If I recall correctly they played in the palace a few years ago I think against maybe Central? Do they have some kind of connection to MI?
