So according to this article they have one open scholarship available and he mentions taking a Power 5 transfer if they can find one, I'm surprised that Billy hasn't gone the transfer or grad transfer route.

Hopefully with a handful of new coaches in the conference this season, Wright's previous experiences along with stronger upper classmen translates to some more victories this season. Just hoping one of the new bigs is ready to step un and start after taking over for Gilbeck

I don't know if Scott is going to do something about 2019-2020 schedule where we try to piece me it together before it is released, non-conference that is, but i believe I saw something that we are playing at Indiana this year. Also saw we are hosting Silver Lake (NAIA school) on Dec 19th.

Cleared out the 18/19 schedule from the future schedules list. I'll start putting things together in the next day or so.

I think Silver Lake has at least one player from every state in the Union plus a 6'11 guy from Serbia. Careful, they might sub us to death.
Maybe we can get a scouting report from Tim Van Alstine who no doubt was present last year when Cardinal Stritch knocked these guys off 56-100
