I saw that too but I can't find any confirmation. All I saw was this:

The D1 docket is a primary source. They dig up public record requests. If they said it's happening, you can list it.

Yeah I just wasn't sure cause in the past they've had stuff listed but it never happened or were even reported... maybe the games never happened & got replaced bc of scheduling or what not... who knows. I was just wondering if anyone had confirmed it or announced it.

Have we confirmed Virginia or is that just speculation?

It's confirmed that there IS a H&H series, and it's confirmed it will start at JPJ, but it is not confirmed when it will start.

I asked around (not on the VCU side). VCU-Houston is not happening. At least not to this point.

Well crap.

I would like a H/H with USF so I can go see my beloved Rams in action at some year in the future. They would not help our NET but I would be able to attend a game.

Miami would be better. But that’s unlikely to happen.

I do think Ryan has better connections in the college basketball world than Rhoades (and Wade/Shaka/Grant/Capel) and might be able to swing some games we haven’t been able to get before.

Who are all the NBA players that are now college coaches that Odom's dad may know...or Odom himself. Get old dad in their to persuade a few of those teams to schedule VCU and help his son out

Connections are very important. I'm sure Odom probably got to know some of the foreign scouts and some of the coaches in Europe through his dad since he is a NBA scout. Not to mention Odom's time as assistant at multiple D1 programs from DC down to NC

I think Odom connections for scheduling and recruiting are on another level from Martelli connections, which we took advantage of. His college basketball and European basketball connections seem as solid as they come.
