MBB non-conference schedule announced today: http://www.cubuffs.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=600&ATCLID=211022136
For those of you with a Scout sub, Adam just posted an updated eligibility chart: http://www.scout.com/college/colorado/story/1685211-updated-men-s-basketball-eligibility-chart
I think it makes a lot of sense that instead of breaking down the positions with the traditional 1-5, he did three groups: guards, wings, bigs. That seems to fit Tad's way of looking at the roster.
I think we're going to steal Adam's format and go the same way.
Pedantic, but ACC has 15 teams for hoopsHaha. Oops. Maybe 20 makes more sense when you have a 14-team conference. That would be a home/away against 7 of them and then a single game against 6 of them. Still pretty unbalanced, but a little better than the current ACC format. Probably makes more money, too.
How I want hoops to change is to see 16-team conferences with pods.
6 games against pod (home/away with each team), 1 game against the other 12 teams (alternating years for home/away). Now we still have an 18-game season for conference hoops along with a very balanced schedule for everyone.
Next, start the season after the fall semester ends to make basketball a 1-semester sport. That means tipping things off with Christmas tournaments over break. Don't have to worry about crap attendance with the students not being there. Gives fans a chance to schedule travel, too. Do a ound robins and that's 3 of the 12 non-conference games. Then, do a challenge against each of the other 3 conferences for another 3 games. Final 6 is open scheduling.
Conference schedule starts in February. March Madness becomes April Madness.

Any idea when the conference schedule will come out?
I missed it. I updated the post.So we're not going to SoCal and Washington and don't have the Arizona teams at home?
Think it typically gets figured out near the end of September. Only thing holding up dates and times is the TV schedule.Any idea when th rest of the schedule will be released with specific dates and times?
CU @ Zona on Pac-12 and UO @ CU on Pac-12 kinda suck, otherwise I love the national exposure we should get this year.I'm surprised that Xavier at Colorado didn't get picked up nationally.
CBSSN picked up our game at Air Force. As reported earlier, @BYU is on ESPN2.
Good number of CU's Pac-12 games are on ESPN networks or FS1.
