wow....is that stuff listed on Craigslist?

[Awesome Sauce Malone]

yeah im skeptical. On everyones account.

[wsushox1]

How else do you think they advertise for games??? I doubt its realy kept that downlow

[SubGod22]

We've had a link to some site in the past that had schools advertising dates/games

[RoyalShock]

That site has been around for several years and is legit. We've played in a Basketball Traveler's tournament before (Paradise Jam, I think?).

[rrshock]

One would have to think that the WSU staff is well aware of these offers out there.

I have seen the actual site before, I just can't remember where it is. I'm sure there are a whole bunch of games to be found.

[ShockerFever]

Oklahoma State would be awesome.
Arizona State would be good.

If all else fails, I could live with the Louisville situation.


It looks as if Utah State's coach is cracking a bit with the scheduling. Considering a 2 for 1. Maybe that means only with Duke, North Carolina, or Kansas..

wow....is that stuff listed on Craigslist?

That is exactly what I thought when I read the OP.

Weird

[calfan]

Hey Doc,

At the very least Ole Miss, Charlotte, and Louisville could be interesting.

[WSUShokker]

Our schedule is pretty good allready....but I would continue to upgrade it and push the kids...even if we have a few more loses. I think we can handle these teams though. Michigan St. obviously would be a tough, tough team to play on the road...but UTEP, NMSt., AZ st., Charlotte, Marquette, Missouri look like great games for us

There was something asked along the lines of would 18 wins instead of 26 be ok with an upgraded schedule and I think the reply was ...no that 23 wins would be ok though....I think this falls in line without thinking

This also would allow us to have some of our schedule set with good opponents in 11-12

by the way this is awesome info...thanks

[pogo]

I think it would be great to see how many schools tried to set up some of these games and were turned down as not being interested by the first party. Just like when gary williams once said he never backed away from any mid major but never scheduled any of the many mo valley coaches that called him to set up games with the "twerps". That being said there are several teams that are offering H/H like "misery, iowa state and osu. All three of these schools are regional and would make for interesting games.

Bring on Louisville! I'll be there!

Oklahoma State University… is looking for a Top 50 RPI opponent for neutral/neutral series beginning on December 18, 2010 in Oklahoma City. Game would be nationally televised by ESPN/ESPN2. We would return game to a neutral site in your area in 2011-12.


Louisville:Looking for teams to play in new arena. $$$$$$.

I'd jump at 2-game series with the Pokes at Ford-IBA.

And I'm assuming the Louisville game would be at a new offsite arena in the Louisville area. If that's the case I would play a guarantee game at an offsite location.

Louisville will be playing there home games at the new arena. They played there last game at Freedom hall this year.
