We interrupt this football talk to talk about...basketball! UPDATE

Update: Earlier this week, we published the post below about the basketball schedule, with the odd note that "a game or two" could still be added. Well, today they added THREE. I'm actually pretty pleased with the additions. We added two home games, Wayne State and Towson State. They're D1, and I don't care who they are, they are playing in our place. And we will play at Savannah State, a nice trip for the guys. So, with even higher optimism, here's the updated schedule....
