You guys need to give Gipe a chance to catch his breath.
You expect him to recruit Reed and finish the schedule the same day?

It's September 4 with two months till the season starts, Still no schedule....
Someone is worried about the non-existent kinkos reprint fees we’d get into if we publish too early.209 out of 363 d1 schools have released non conf schedules. So not abnormal. Some of those teams, like Vcu, released a schedule with a TBD opponent. We could do the same with 12/13 known but I don’t see the point in that.
SF, can you please verify the 209 stat? Thanks209 out of 363 d1 schools have released non conf schedules. So not abnormal. Some of those teams, like Vcu, released a schedule with a TBD opponent. We could do the same with 12/13 known but I don’t see the point in that.

Wonder if a few other comparable schools might also be holding back a game as well to allow for schedule flexbility and/or even a possible late season mid major non-conf showdownAnd here's the "full" UR schedule...still one slot open for OOC.
Spiders announce 2022-23 men's basketball schedule - University of Richmond Athletics
RICHMOND, Va. – The Richmond Spiders men's basketball team announced a 30-game schedule for the 2022-23 season Wednesday highlighted by at least nine nationa...richmondspiders.com
So there’s a chance this is it and we roll with 12 OOC games? That would be disappointing
Rest assured we won't...they've already announced a 31-game schedule.I still hate our OOC schedule even more when organized by date. If we add ODU I’m going to lose it.
Yeah, if we end up with only 12 and don't add another quality game, that should be a pretty large black mark for our scheduling department. It won't be, because we got Teflon Mooney running things, but it should. Would go right up there with when we used to leave open schollies on the table for next year.So there’s a chance this is it and we roll with 12 OOC games? That would be disappointing
As of a few years ago, I believe there was a weird-ish NCAA rule that all teams participating in a given MTE must have the same number of total games on their schedules. I'm not sure if that's still in effect, but if so, it could force us to add a final game in any way possible. I haven't checked, but I'm assuming the other Empire Classic teams will play 31.
agreed. as SF said, we have somoe options to fit a game in. there have to be others who need a game. we should be willing to host, or bus, or even fly to the right game.Yeah, if we end up with only 12 and don't add another quality game, that should be a pretty large black mark for our scheduling department.

Agreed, just find another game and play it (obviously not another MEAC or CAA team either with the final game). Glad to at least see that we said in the presser that we are still holding open an option for another game. Now, let's get it done.agreed. as SF said, we have somoe options to fit a game in. there have to be others who need a game. we should be willing to host, or bus, or even fly to the right game.

youtube TV can also be useful during bball season .. so glad not to see to need this year for the horrible 1 month FLO purchase to watch us play a CAA team (since I do plan on being at College of Charleston game)As someone without cable who lives far away, I vastly prefer showing games on ESPN+

High Point and Longwood actually probably help more than hurt. Providence would be an interesting play though, rematch from the NCAA last year.we're open for a game 11/27. Providence currently has a game 11/20 (home) and 11/30 (@ TCU).
not as good, but High Point plays 11/23 and 11/30.
Longwood 11/20 and 11/30.
Glad to at least see that we said in the presser that we are still holding open an option for another game. Now, let's get it done.
Maybe to sell some tickets?
season ticket prices are already locked in, I don't think they are going to come around in another month asking for more money if they sign another game.
check out tweet. even with the schedule out they don't sell individual game tix or mini plans yet. weeks away. So that wasn't pushing the release. Tho now u can for season tix which is good, but imo u should have been able to buy or reserve season tix by now already. I don't know how they handle, I was a STH long ago but not local. But from what I remember your season tix was still based on a per game cost. Meaning the more home games the more cost. Makes sense. But what do they do now. We could have another home game with 1 more to go. Do they just give it out free? A season tix cost would have to be set. Maybe they have a fixed cost now no matter how many home games. Or they know for sure the last game would not be a home game. just curious.

I got mine weeks ago
I think your reasoning is sound.u r a renewal tho, I assume may be different. But the reason I was asking goes back to gospiders post re: selling tix. Having a published schedule can help with tix, but we r not using the release to sell per game or mini plan tickets right now at all. And maybe not even season tix if they were already available.
So because UR wasn't that motivated by tix sales, my feeling is UR would have waited on the release if they were close to filling the last game. The release without 13th game means they r not very close to securing a 13th. Just my speculation. if they were about to fill the 13th they wait. So I take this as bad news on the 13th ooc game, especially with what happened a few years ago too. Hopefully I'm wrong or something comes up unexpectedly with the last game.
Ah, yes I am not sure about new tickets only familiar with the renewals process.Thx I don't either. Do you know if new season tix were available for purchase before today? It is unclear in the tweet.
