Four BIG 12 schools have coaches attending
Battle of the Best Club Ball Tournament
July 6-7-8 in Central Iowa
458 games
List includes 2021 Elite 8 NCAA Tournament schools

We are approaching four years in age and 106 in post level. This is an important subject but the earlier posts are really stale for a single thread.

I recommend beginning a new thread using something like a period cutoff like seasons/years (e.g.--BigXII Happenings: 2020-2021 season) to distinguish old posts from current ones.

I agree. Great thread, now ready for retirement in favor of a new one for '21. Wanna do the honors, Slimecap?

Same school as Lauren Cox!

BIG 12 TEAMS VS UCONN
2021-22 Non-Conference Schedule
Update: July 8, 2021

Home Notre Dame & Tennessee
Away Georgia Tech, Oregon & South Carolina
Neutral Louisville & Battle 4 Atlantis

Nov 20-22 Battle 4 Atlantis Women's Tournament
Participants Oklahoma, Buffalo, Minnesota, Oregon, South Carolina, Syracuse & USF
Bracket release TBD
UConn will not face South Carolina & Oregon at the tournament since they already had preexisting contracts to play those schools in nonleague competition

.. NCAA Division I teams play
a) 27 regular season games plus multi-team event OR
b) 29 regular season games without a multi-team event
.. UConn games = 20 Big East Conf + 7 OOC + multiteam event
.. UConn can add 1 more nonconference game to its schedule

I always assumed we would play them this year since the game last year was cancelled. But that was when Mulkey was making those decisions. Cullen might have other ideas. It makes sense to play them. As Drew likes to say, "iron sharpens iron." I think RGIII said it too.

Whomever used it as a sports metaphor first was quoting Proverbs 27:17. It works.

Amen. Promise Keepers used to use it too.

FUTURE NON-CONFERENCE SCHEDULE

The original four Jumpman 23 Jordan Brand schools
-- Florida, Michigan, North Carolina and Oklahoma --
will compete starting next year in the Jumpman Invitational
a blockbuster holiday WBB and MBB event in Charlotte NC

Historian, please forgive the correction, but in your sentence it is whoever, not whomever. Whoever is used when you could substitute he or she. Whomever is used when you could substitute her or him.
