Aren’t there two more OOC games yet to be announced?

There could be 2 more, but I would be shocked if its anything besides some buy games.

Delete if this post is not allowed. Anyone see the presale code for Battle In Baltimore? I got it from AI as HOOPS

Here's how not to get me to travel to games. Schedule Towson and then charge $211.45 per average seat. Those $48.50 seats probably don't have good views.

That is the get in price for both games to my understanding

Agreed, multiple exhibition games against real opponents is interesting to see

I hope there are plans for a bus trip to the game

Highly doubt it since it’s just an exhibition

...and why aren't we scheduling the max for exhibition games? Or are we doing the more informal intra-squad scrimmages?

The NCAA expanded the maximum limit from two games to three games starting with the 2026 – 27 season.

Taking advantage of more opportunities for real competition is a no-brainer.

George Mason vs Towson in Baltimore on Saturday December 19th 2026

Who else going to this game?

I'm definitely planning on going now since my 6 year old said he wants to go with friends for his birthday - so we are going to make a weekend of it in Baltimore. Only issue will be if the demand from UMD fans keeps the prices absurdly high. Looks like there are only doubleheader tickets being sold, but the capacity is over 11,000 for basketball - bigger arena than I thought.

I think prices will go down when they release the 200 level seats.

I don’t know, email Tony or someone on staff and ask? lol

Are crab cakes acceptable birthday cakes for a 6 year old 's birthday?

At mine they absolutely would be - but I think this is the wrong thread?
