2016-2017 GT Hoops Schedule

[dtm1997]

Wait?! We scheduled TN Thompson?! Doesn't Pastner know we lost most of our scoring from last year?

We signed a 4-game deal beginning with last season's game.

I hope we improve our OOC scheduling in the next few years as we (hopefully) bring in better talent. That really is a pretty miserable OOC schedule.

Eh, I think having a weaker OOC schedule next year is okay. 17-18 though I'd like to see a challenging one to really test and push our (hopefully) high profile new guys.

Who do we think we are? Syracuse?

Pitt

Ugh. Season tix are expensive since you're paying for the ACC games & UGA. The rest of home OOC is pay-for-pummel fodder.

Pitt

VaTech under Greenberg

Full schedule is out and it's a good thing we have low expectations because it's trash.

[Peacone36]

6-8 wins?

 

[dtm1997]

We open with UNC, dook, & L'ville in a row. 4 of our 1st 7 games are on the road and all 7 of those games are against teams likely to be in the upper half.

I'm going 3 ACC wins (At Wake, BC, steal Pitt at home). 10 wins overall.

The ACC can eat ****.

 

[YlJacket]

If we win 3 ACC games with that schedule I will be surprised and happy. UNC/Duke/Louisville to start out with? Who in god's green earth came up with that one

Our freshman better be twice the players their star rankings say they are for us to have any kind of shot at 3 wins, or laughing out loud now, more than 3 wins.

 

[Peacone36]

A win on the road at Wake.

Future 2016-17 All-ACC 2nd team guard Bryant Crawford doubts that very much.

 

[Peacone36]

**** they still have Mitoglu too.

Yeah, that's a loss bub. Could even be a bad one of John Collins can play more than 9-12 mins a game this year

 

[mstranahan]

The ACC opponents and road/home have been known for a year. The only thing we found out today was the dates. I stick with my over/under of 2 wins in conference this year

 

[RyanS12]

It seems like the last few seasons we have opened up with the toughest slate of any ACC team.

 

[dtm1997]

**** they still have Mitoglu too.

Yeah, that's a loss bub. Could even be a bad one of John Collins can play more than 9-12 mins a game this year

Yeah. You're probably right on that one. 2 ACC wins; 9 wins overall.

 

[CuseJacket]

Does it really matter what order the games come in? Maybe the first three will give us a convenient excuse of "it was too demoralizing to overcome" as we play out the rest. I'd rather it happen this year than when we have expectations.
