Title: Think we will hold a United Center game again soon?
Post by: frankiew on June 07, 2020, 08:59:15 AM

If the program is a consistent top 25 team I can see us getting back to the yearly United Center game, hopefully against a good solid opponent, and we can just schedule a series with that team.



It was sad to see it end but the matchups were getting pretty weak

New Mexico St, Byu, UIC (THANKS GUNTHER) are not gonna sell tickets and moving a  conference game their was so dumb

I'd frankly be cool if they simply set up a game there with DePaul every year, or rotate w/ DePaul, Marquette, ND, etc. You're never going to get big-name teams like Duke to show up again with how recruiting, television, etc. have changed since the 90s.
