we have to be careful who we play at home to, we all know everyone recruits in Dallas pretty heavily so this is giving those teams a chance to connect with North Texas recruits. Of course if we beat whoever we play, just makes us look even better!

I would love to get Kansas to Moody but they are to scared to even schedule Wichita State so I doubt that happens. Scared might not be the right word, I believe Self said they had nothing to gain by scheduling it....

yeah I doubt Larry wants to go anywhere near Kansas…hits too close to home and they love him there. Self is a protege as well…Kansas St on the other hand would be a tough one, especially at the octagon of doom

I remember when I went to see us play MSU in the ODU tournament in Norfolk, Virginia and they had this 6'7" point guard name Ervin Johnson. It was not pretty.
UNC better keep that Ram away from Peruna

I liked when Larry said in the press conference that he tried to play all the guys from Texas; I think it'd be a blast to whip UT and Baylor. OU too.

Izzo's teams are tournament ready typically. They should go far as usual.

They travel very well too. I went to the MSU/Texas game at Austin in December with a UT grad (I wore green). There were a lot of very vocal Sparty fans
