2024-25 MEN'S SCHEDULE

[billhoward]

Why a league opponent?  Does this mean that they really couldn't get a high end non-league opponent to play a game at MSG?  Hard to believe

Whatever the reason, playing a league opponents sounds like "No quality opponent want to play us / had free time on the schedule to play Cornell."

Playing at Madison Square Garden is a big deal for the team that plays Cornell, it's a big deal if the school has a big alumni body near metro New York, there is always the chance our opponent will come in rated higher and lose."

Just got a message from Ticketmaster that Frozen Apple tickets go on sale tomorrow - Cornell vs. Quinnipiac. Ugh.

I'd rather skip a year than this

Yeah. I would have preferred Clarkson.

IMHO, Q is an opponent that's best categorized as a low-academic factory school. (Obligatory disclaimer: I'm sure there are some very good programs and some excellent student nonetheless.) I'd prefer not to give them the prestige and legitimacy that comes with meeting us in MSG, alternating with the likes of BU.

Knkwi little about why this is the opponent, Q is the type of school that will come out of pocket to get on SNY and was likely willing to eat financial risk in this game to a higher degree than other potential teams. They will market it to death too.

I'd still rather see almost any other opponent there.

Isn't one of the reasons Coach likes the msg games is that it gives the team the big arena, high energy experience that they'd face if they get to the FF?   Pretty sure I read that somewhere.

From that perspective, get the best opponent available that will also follow seats.   If we couldn't land anyone else this year, Quinny fits the bill.

Clarkson would have brought like 1,000 fans. I don't think they are/were a realistic option.

I agree. Really no other team could have been scheduled than one on our own conference? I'd have assumed this annual game is booked years out. What happened?

[George64]

Oops

[Jim Hyla]

Full schedule supposedly out tomorrow.

Too bad the Michigan-Ohio state football game always falls on the same day (I'm 98% certain anyway). One of those teams could probably help us fill up MSG if their fans weren't preoccupied with "the game".

Sorry if this has been mentioned before (it probably has). Although we did play Michigan one year. How was that turnout in regards to Wolverine fans?

[The Rancor]

Couldn't even get LIU for that day?

[Jim Hyla]

Full Schedule is out.

I've updated mine at the first post. Let me know if I have misprints.

We open with a home scrimmage against Princeton. I wonder how that came to be :-)

[The Rancor]

Excited for the season, but this feels like a very weak and insular schedule.
