I know they call them secret scrimmages but they always seem to get out. Anyone know who we might be scrimmaging this year? Or is it likely not set yet?

I haven't heard anything out of Cincy area.

Except Thomas More University will play scrimmage vs Univ Cincinnati.

Apparently Ohio plays home against Robert Morris on Oct. 26.

Brilliant move by the new administration...only play Robert Morris when it doesn't count and no one can see it. Replaces our previous tradition of disappointing painful losses to them.

The administration is at least giving you Capital and Heidelberg in the Convo for your entertainment pleasure.

Unless something has changed recently a D1 school cannot sell tickets to a exhibition vs. another D1 school. They are allowed two so they usually play a D1 team behind closed doors against a team that is supposed to be of similar caliber and a close by non-D1 school as a preview.

Don't forget Rio Grande is coming to Athens also.

Well, we've got a new administration and a new coach. It will be interesting to see if that results in changes to scheduling philosophy or if the Capital- Heidelberg- Rio Grande type games are the new normal.

I believe it is too soon to assume that this is "the new normal". This young team has some formable road opponents. I have a feeling that these early games against "lesser competition" will allow them to gel as a team and find their flow. I, for one, am thankful for this year's scheduling. Looking forward to the season.

To be clear, my message was sarcastic for the sole purpose of pointing out how we always lose to Robert Morris. It was not a criticism of the schedule.

To be clear, my message was not sarcasm but criticism of scheduling multiple non-DI opponents in the Convo.

We could play at Rio, would that reduce your sarcasm level?? ;-)
