Also of note is that the Syracuse game on Dec 5 will be on Fox at 1:00 PM ET.

The Providence home game is 8 pm on a Saturday too. It should be a good game, plus it's a nice rare Saturday night game at Verizon Center. Overall, I think it's a great schedule. There's a lot more to offer to season ticket holders, too.

So we are on the main Fox broadcast network four times and on CBS twice. Looks like the rest of our games are in pretty good time slots on FS1. Hopefully we've got a team that can back all of this up, but we really can't complain about the lack of exposure this year. Oh, and I'm pretty sure that Bill Raftery has never called any games on FOX, and I assume his CBS contract prohibits that. So he's not going to be calling the Syracuse game unless things have changed. I'm counting 3 CBS games: Villanova @uconn Butler

I wouldn't expect the crowd to show up until half time.

So that's 7 games on CBS or FOX. Not sure if we've ever had that many games on national (non-cable) TV.

The beginning and the end of the season is ridiculously tough. To have at Maryland, Wisconsin and Duke at MSG in the first week and end the regular season with 2 road games at Marquette and at Villanova is probably the toughest combination of games I can remember. Imagine having to clinch the BE title the last week of the season on the road in those 2 venues. Hopefully we have already clinched the regular season conference title before that weekend. One things for sure, we will be well tested going into March!

It was also during a snow/ice storm. Attendance was obviously pretty bad. It was basically a skating rink trying to walk to the subway after the game.

January 2 New Year's Marathon is a lot more appealing than the NYE marathon last year (and also avoids the college football semi-finals).
Also - has anyone ever seen a nice PDF printable version of the schedule, ideally in calendar format? The print version from the website is just a list of games, without days of the week or TV info (as it has been for many years). I like to put sports schedules up on my tackboard and use them as my quick-view calendar, but the GUHoyas one doesn't get it done.

Hmm the PDF posted here as @ Providence on FOX but the GuHoyas site has it on FS1 either way still very cool to have lots of games on the big networks.

Has to be an easier way.

Thanks. It also identifies February 2 and February 6 as Tuesdays, so maybe I will wait a bit to see if it gets straightened out, but it is definitely better than the first version I saw. To JohnnyJones point, I am pretty sure someone does the schedule in Google calendar so you can get it uploaded to your Palm Pilot or Treo, but I do like the actual single-sheet printout that lets me look at the next few months at a glance. I use it to manually count 30 days for responses to discovery requests, and my Red Sox schedule only goes through September, so let's hope nothing new gets served for the next month or so.

Syracuse is on December 5? Damn. Going to be in Hawaii that weekend. I doubt the sports bars on Kauai (if any) will be open that early.

In years past I've done it for Google Calendar and posted the text file you would use to import from. It isn't really that hard but I don't know exactly when I'll have a chance to do it. When I do I'll post it but anyone can feel free to beat me to it...

Ok, I had more time than I thought I might.
Here is the Hoyas schedule in csv format: Hoyas2015-16schedule.csv (1.99 KB)
Instructions for importing it into Google Calendar are here: support.google.com/calendar/answer/37118?hl=en
The games will show up looking like this:
"Hoyas vs Radford 12:00 PM / Verizon Center"
The description shows what TV station it is on.
