Remember swag comes with shirts
Iām on Team Shirts as I want swag . Swag that changes with games or whenever we want to support a cause like breast cancer awareness or a special event like Homecoming . Doesnāt even have to be school colors (like all pink for breast cancer awareness) . Fun Swag!
Nice to start to get to knowing the assistants a little:

Damn he left one non-coaching assistant position under Rick Barnes at Texas and turned down another non coaching job offer from Thad Matta (at his own alma mater Ohio State to boot) to stick with Odom as an actual assistant coach at the D2 level.
Can see why Odom loves his loyalty. (also kinda similar to Kyle Guy, who took the opportunity to be an actual coaching/recruiting assistant under Alford at Nevada)

Was thinking it might be the first post-exam game, but if I remember correctly, we didnāt do a true exam break last year.

The UM-Eastern Shore game (12/9) announced last week would be the last game before it.
I do wonder if we schedule another buy game as a warm up closer to Maryland so the Terps arenāt our first game in a week and a half, but we already have six buy games out of 12 or 13, itās Q1/Q2 OOC games we now need to add.
11/3 - Rider (H)
11/7 - NC Central (H)
11/11 - Hampton (H)
11/21 and 11/23 - Greenbrier Tipoff (South Carolina / Butler / Northwestern)
11/28 - Queens (H)
(Week of 12/2-12/5) - SEC Challenge Opponent TBD
12/9 - Maryland - Eastern Shore (H)
(Exams 12/11-12/19)
12/20 - Maryland (H)
12/22 - American (H)
Ideally Iād like to see us add two more P5 teams (maybe one is Clemson in Greensboro or Charlotte, the other someone on the road for the Q1 opp), then taking the option for the 13th non-conf being one last buy game 12/18 or so as a tune up for the Terps.

Any ideas on who weāll play in SEC challenge. Odom hinted to Rothstein he thinks itāll be on the road, which is interesting since we were on the road last year.
I guess start with who is due a home game and is in our projected preseason range?
So we are at 10 OCC now. Can go up to 13 I guess (can still schedule 31?). So, likely OSU neutral site, the maybe Clemson neutral site and one more buy game at home?
Vandy vs Byington would be an interesting storyline. At Ole Miss could be possible too. Texas would make sense as well. My guess is one of those 3.

Looks like Ark, UK, Ole Miss, USCe, Bama, Aub, Tx and Vandy are due home game. Think you are right with the 3 of Vandy, Ole Miss and TX. Still donāt see how we are on the road again, maybe he just misspoke, Of the teams due a road game I could see Uga, LSU or OK

As with the ACC-B1G challenge the answer always relates to scheduling Duke & UNC into the best matchups. Sometimes that requires forcing teams to play on the road two years in a row.

Is Odomās younger son going to be on the roster? He graduated HS this year I think.
Collegiate listed him as a ā25 at least. Snapshot: Collegiate Welcomes New Juniors | The Match

Go the Eli Bennett route I guess.
