Miami would be interesting for a couple of reasons - one is the location would make for a great alum/student trip with discounted hotel deal, etc. by FU. Also, it's a winnable Big East game. the return date would have to be in the Garden, I imagine, due to Big East league rules for road games. -- Fordham Rams Basketball Message Board

In reply to: ace93 's message, "For purely selfish reasons I would like to see us play the Universtiy of Miami. It would be a great excuse for me to visit the family and South Florida is a great place to visit in November. I like the idea of Gonzaga, but they seem to have something going with St. Joe's so may not be interested in another A-10 team. Could not hurt to find out though. To me that is a less likely trip however." on Wed April 27, 2005 14:31:32

Miami is in the ACC. (NT) -- AC, Wed April 27, 2005 15:37:10
- I think scheduling some big ten games makes a lot of sense. For one thing we have stout anderson and greene from the midwest. Playing Michigan and Ohio St or Illinois would help our sos and satisfy alumni desire to play with national bb programs and top academic institutions. (NT) -- joe b, Wed April 27, 2005 17:08:06
  - Agreed. Michigan and Illinois are good schools and would be good MSG games. Wisconsin is another good academic Big Ten school with a top notch hoop program. (NT) -- Rambacker, Wed April 27, 2005 20:40:28
Correction: a winnable ACC game. Even more attractive. (NT) -- Rambacker, Wed April 27, 2005 19:14:59
