Hope it's true so I can see the games, but then having my Hoyas possibly play my Aztecs would be a hell of an internal conflict. No question I root for the Hoyas first but still not a choice I would enjoy making.

5 games in 5 days including a flight from Orlando to LA? Pat must really want to push this team in OOC Well Zagoria wrote in past tense (had) when talking about Ewing. So maybe that means he dropped Orlando or is still seeing if he can make it work.... |

Meh.
For a team that we hope has bubble aspirations, Orlando offered better opportunities for nice OOC wins. Not sure what USC (I know not Mobley) and SDSU bring back, but can’t be as strong as Alabama, Kansas, Miami, Iona etc.

Even if we get PBJ it's gonna take some time before the young dawgs adjust to college bball physicality.... |

East Coast bias showing. San Diego State was 23-5 this year .
Stronger than Miami and Iona, for sure.

Is USC going to be good again? Because based on their level this year they would also be a huge step above Miami and Iona since they were a 6 seed and they are more beatable imo than Alabama or Kansas which is what we want

But we only might play one of USC or SDSU, neither of whom I’m sure will be as good as last season. I meant more quantity of stronger games in Orlando. |

I would definitely take winning this over losing to some really good comp even if USC or SD won’t be as good as last year as long as they are bubble or better those wins would be great

I think some people were disappointed with us not being in the Orlando one with the misreport awhile back but I think this one is good since they are beatable solid tournament teams in SDSU and USC which could go really well if we are on the bubble come march and they could get some kind of trophy for winning this right?

We have a lot of new pieces, so I hope we can play well as a team in November.
