Question from J-me
I know football is the hot ticket these days around campus but Basketball is my passion. Hope your having a good off season following a successful Rookie Coaching Season in the Burrow.

I wanted to ask about the upcoming schedule. I've noticed some schools have released them. I am curious who the Owls will be playing out-of-conference at Home in the Burrow this season? Any updates?

Also, why can't basketball have contracts like football where you sign a 2 yr deal to play the school, one home then one away the following year. Thus, bringing UNC to the Burrow this upcoming season. Worth a shot right?

Response from Head Coach Rex Walters
J-me,
Thanks for your passion. I too am excited about football and the job that Coach Schnellenberger is doing. Each year they have taken another step up with the program and will continue to do so.

We are very close with finalizing our schedule and hope to have it released soon. One of our main goals is to have as many home games as possible. I am very proud of the home record last year (11-2) and want to continue to build upon this. Just like with recruiting, we are always on the lookout for the best possible schedule for our team. It is a difficult process but it is one that we work on constantly. Thank you for your question and passion...it is much appreciated!

Go Owls,

Rex Walters
