Jon Rothstein (CBS Sports) tweeted that we've pulled out of the Hall of Fame Classic in Kansas City.

Isn't the season supposed to start on the 25th? It's crazy we don't have a schedule by now.

Maryland just released their non-conference schedule. It's seven games, one is the B10/ACC Challenge and the rest are mostly against regional opponents. I wouldn't mind seeing something regionally focused for NU too.

This season is going to be problematic....the contact in basketball is the most intimate of all the sports other than wrestling....Loyola had to stop all activities today....

Every person on every play in football is making intimate contact with the opposing player. Basketball isn't even close? Maybe on rebounds, screens, and contested layups?

I have not heard much at all of COVID being spread between teams in NFL or College?

I want you guarding me if you’re gonna stay 6 ft away unless I go for a layup.

DePaul just canceled its first four games due to an outbreak. I think the Cats didn't want to travel the busy Thanksgiving weekend and risk the team's health. Makes sense to me even though I would have loved to have seen them play those games.

The Missouri Valley has changed their conference shcedule to minimize travel....If I get it....each team will have 4 two-game series at home .....and 4 on the road....SO for example....they would have Illinois St..back to back at home and then SIU away back to back......who plays who, where has not yet been revealed but they say that will also be based on limiting travel? they also revealed a conference contact tracing program that everyone will use.....? we'll see

Loyola, DePaul, Chicago State, UIC, NIU and Milwaukee would make sense for NU.......

Wonder if NU will replace those games? Would like to see them play Loyola and this year Milwaukee. Invite Jr. for that game and have him sign on the dotted line, as mom and dad look on!
