ESPN lists four OOC games, Navy on Nov. 25, W&M on Dec. 5, Towson on Dec. 7, and South Carolina on Dec. 14. Is that it?

Hosting Hampton (as part of the GW MTE) on 12/1

Non-conference as of now:
@ Navy 11/25
Hampton 12/1
William & Mary 12/5
@ Towson 12/7
South Carolina 12/14
Charlotte 12/22

This would have been a great year for the DC schools to mimic the Philly 5. A 1 year respite from  the egos and hurt feelings and whose hone court it is etc...Sorry to se that even at a time like this we can not put aside past  and have GW Georgetown, Maryland, Mason play each other.  No travel makes it Safire for the teams, no fans make the venue less important.

PKGW and GWRising, you guys are right, a D.C. bubble would be PERFECT at this time when you consider that we are now experiencing the cold-weather COVID spike that many predicted months ago. I can somewhat understand Georgetown and Maryland being cowards during a normal season(it probably is very embarrassing when "little brother" beats "big brother"), but having a bunch of local teams playing in 1 place seems to be the only option for every school(locally and nationally) to get games in. There doesn't appear to be any COVID issues with the local schools(GW, Georgetown, Howard, American U, Maryland, George Mason, Navy, Loyola-MD, Morgan State, UMBC, etc.) so why not have an event with 10 or 12 local schools and get a bunch of games in???

The fact that COVID is causing several teams to back out of games and tournaments, do you guys think its possible for GW to be a last-minute replacement in certain tournaments? Would JC accept a last-minute invite to a tournament?  I'm thinking we will reach a point where tournaments will start making calls or putting out social media posts looking for schools to play the day before or maybe even the day of the tournament.  

This is what ESPN is showing, although the game times for Hampton and W&M are TBD which is a bit concerning.

Towson has paused all basketball related activities due to a positive COVID-19 test, per release.

Monday's game will definitely be cancelled.  Can we pull together a new opponent in two days?

We are also showing Delaware for next Friday. Is that a recent addition?

If I read my GW basketball history correctly, we are 6-3 against UMBC. Although, 0-2 at UMBC. Only loss at home was in 1-27 season.  It will be interesting test because UBMC is surely a better than Coppin State. 

Coppin State is 331 in KENPOM. The only reason they aren't dead last at 357 is because the put up a "good fight" against us.
