First off, awesome to be in two high profile MTEs back to back years.

Empire includes Indiana, Texas, and Lville. Hope we get matched up with Indiana in a battle of 5 championship programs.

Maui includes UNC, MSU, ISU, Auburn, and Memphis (i'm glad we aren't in this with them next year incase the swirling rumors come true)

If we get Indiana, Texas and @Baylor in the BE/B12 challenge next season in the non con, that would be beautiful.

Is Maui November 2023 or November 2024?

Is Maui November 2023 or November 2024?

2024, it is not next year.

Is Maui November 2023 or November 2024?

How is Louisville a headliner at anything now?

It’s similar to like listing Chaminade for Maui.

Why would you throw Chaminade under the bus like that?

They'll always have that win over Ralph Sampson

Would love to see 2 more power conference games as well, i think we saw this year that 5 seems to be the perfect number

I think we are in the Jimmy V classic next year as well. I know UNC is in that, not sure of the other teams..

No, Chaminade is in Hawaii and is the host school.

There is ZERO reason for Louisville to be a part of this.

Hope we get a game with Texas or that Empire Classic will be a disappointment.

Swirling rumors?

someone made a reference to this the other day in another thread. something about one of our main rotation guys, I think a big) getting an NIL deal at Memphis. I'm confused as well and haven't been able to find anything on it.
