2024 Schedule...

Anyone know the rules on scrimmages? We play one others play 4. I was told the NCAA has rules on how many “events” you can have but not sure what that is.

I forget the total number, but “events” includes scrimmages. It’s one of the reasons why Duke doesn’t scrimmage in the fall and can play more games in the spring.

I think the number is 17, like you said, "events". If you scrimmage two teams in one day, that is considered one "event". Also Alumni games don't count as an event. Not sure how it works with conference tournaments, I am guessing that is not considered an event.

I’m counting 18 events on the navy schedule. Doesn’t the events include the fall scrimmages?

Only the first game of a conference tournament is an event that counts toward the total if it works like b-ball.

the kind of game that does nothing for u...almost no chance of being a top 20 RPI win
Except High Point is essentially an honorary member of the ACC at this point that regularly plays Duke, UVA and UNC. They’ve pulled upsets before. It might work out better than you think.
 
High Point is about even with a team like Navy if we are talking potential RPI drains and what have you. We were rumored to play Navy earlier in the predicted schedule discussions and this seems like a reasonable alternative. Not a guaranteed RPI booster, but likely not a massive drain either and certainly not a massive breather like some that made our schedule last season. They actually beat Navy early last year. Went one and one with a half way decent St. Joes team.

Not a horrible addition, but they do have the whole giant killer mentality thing going, even if that did not go well at all for them last season. They go all out in games like this against traditional big names, while often not showing that same spunk against more evenly matched foes. Could be trouble there if we are not willing to match that energy.

They return at least their top 4 in scoring and I like some of their younger talent like Isaiah Moran-Weekes. If they fare better against St Joes (who loses a good deal of talent) and Richmond this season and take the Atlantic 10, then it could be a reasonably quality win. I worry Richmond could still be too much for them this season, but we will see. I like getting a new conference involved in the mix.
