Purdue

[The Real SamC]

Men's basketball schedule is out. The Token Efforters play what has become our standard schedule for the last decade or so. Some bus trip games against other one-bid local league teams, a couple of lower division games that really serve no purpose, and one step up game, this year @ Purdue.

Guess the SBC has gone more to "block" scheduling. Meaning "blocks" of games, 3 or 4, either at home or on the road. May be some type of attempt to reduce, as much as possible, travel costs. Or else, figured fewer, but longer, trips on the road were better for everyone, especially the "student athletes", overall. Or maybe for both reasons!
