Known non-conference games: Known non-conference games: Is this the big reveal? Ha, ha! I must admit that I was very anxious to read your post. I spoke to Dan Burt at the of end of the season and suggested playing St. John's for another 2 years. Not sure where my suggestion will go. But Dan did say that continuing playing a Big East team, such as St. John's, appealed to him. Last edited by godukes1970 (5/23/2017 7:30 am) Those are the only verifiable games so far. Actually I've run over to DU's athletic site a couple times as the soccer schedules have been announced, thinking it was the hoop schedule. Known non-conference games: Is this the big reveal? Ha, ha!

But Dan did say that continuing playing a Big East team, such as St. John's, appealed to him. Bobby Mo enjoys whoopin us too much to let a little thing like a transfer get in their way. In women's hoops? I don't think so. I agree El D, In women's hoops? I don't think so. I was talkin men's hoops. Love the ladies playing UConn. Dont be scared. Face the best. No fear! Love the ladies playing UConn. Dont be scared. Face the best. No fear! I agree! Some on the board were crying when we got UConn last year. I thought it was one of the best things to ever happen for the program. We got 10 times the attention we would have received taking a 20 point loss vs some anonymous ACC team. The fact the Geno has us on his schedule tells you all you need to know. In women's hoops? I don't think so. I was talkin men's hoops. Gotcha Rick, but we don't have any transfers from their men's team. And of course during the past seasons they have whupped on us like a big brother, and you're right, as long as they think they can continue to do that we'll be on their schedule. Dan Burt doesn't back down from competition. Playing that rugged schedule last year after losing two such talented seniors tells you all you need to know. Paid off when they made a run in the A-10 Tournament. In women's hoops? I don't think so. I was talkin men's hoops. Gotcha Rick, but we don't have any transfers from their men's team.

I'm the confused one. I missed where he switched from the men's team to the women's team in GoDukes post Gotcha Rick, but we don't have any transfers from their men's team.

I'm the confused one. I missed where he switched from the men's team to the women's team in GoDukes post In my original post I inadvertently failed to clarify that it was the Robert Morris women's team that had chosen not to play the Dukes' women's team for the past two years. I expect there will be no game between the teams in the 2017-2018 season. I later edited my first post and inserted the word "women." they will play in a mid major tournament in the Bahamas in November. I only see Battle for Atlantis and Dukes not included. Where did you see this? they will play in a mid major tournament in the Bahamas in November. Can't vouch for this site's accuracy, but it appears to have a comprehensive listing of teams participating in early season tourneys. They have not picked up anything on the Dukes yet. Last edited by PhoenixRising2 (5/26/2017 11:32 pm) Yes, that is sight I read. Also googled Bahamas tournaments and saw nothing. Would like to know Steel city's source Duquesne will host VMI on November 14th as part of 2017-18 non-conference schedule. Last edited by Duques102 (6/07/2017 2:22 pm) I suspect you're right. Dayton, Bonnie and Louie for sure. I think Mason, Richmond and URI have doubled up on our schedule recently too. Cornell Daily Sun reports that Cornell will play at Duquesne on November 27. Lost 21 last year but at least someone people have heard of Cornell Daily Sun reports that Cornell will play at Duquesne on November 27. Lost 21 last year but at least someone people have heard of Going into the first year shorthanded, a soft schedule is called for. Please Mr. Harper, how about a road trip to Rice, or the University of Houston? Or even Texas State, or how about lower mid major power house Stephen F. Austin or Sam Houston State? Please Mr. Harper, how about a road trip to Rice, or the University of Houston? Or even Texas State, or how about lower mid major power house Stephen F. Austin or Sam Houston State? UH, but not yet. Sampson's rebuilding is ahead of ours at this point. We need to schedule wins this year. Upgrade the schedule when we can handle it.

I think it's safe to add Bobby Mo to the men's schedule at the PPG Paint Can. However, I would be greatly surprised if Robert Morris women's team played the Dukes next season. They are still stewing over Judith Sole's transfer to Duquesne two years ago.

We will have size and talent that Bobby U can't match up with and remember those thousand set plays that Coach D can surprise them with.

Their women's team ran and hid from us after Judith Sole transferred here.
Sorry if I cause any corn-fusion!

They'll be battle-tested this year. And I think they'll be back in the NCAAs. •
