Didn't notice this until now. Is this a first? I can't ever recall our last home game being at XL, ever.

OK, so i went back to double-check - this has happened before, for spells, but not in 20+ years..

I guess the powers that be wanted something out of the deal... gotta be the only reason... they loosened their belt(s) quite a bit to get the athletic programs going/headed in the right directions at least...

there is no justification to having Depaul on a Wednesday night at XL.

Historically, senior night is the last home game on campus. There have been years where that is before the last home game at the XL.

That's somewhat fair, but seeing as the last home game on campus has coincided with the last game @ GP for 2 decades, it's just weird.

Plus, Depaul on a Wednesday. Why bother?

That might be the senior night on paper, but the real senior night will definitely be Feb 22 vs. Providence

Was hoping we would get Georgetown on Senior Night so we could celebrate with Akok.
