Will UK go back to playing in holiday tournaments or bring back the IU rivalry?

Hoepfully, the new coach will go back to Hawaii, Alaska, etc. IU needs to brought back to the schedule ASAP. The UKIT may not be a bad idea as well. Lastly, please bring back Converse!

I’m all for the Maui stuff. I couldn’t care less about playing Indiana.

 

[RunninRichie]

IU series is coming back in 2025 or 2026. Good news is we won’t have Cal leading us. So easy wins against them.

 

[chroix]

Yes. I almost guarantee the new coach makes some of these moves to help get fans back on board. But no Converse.

 

[RMorris33]

Please cancel the upcoming IU series, Coach Drew. We have nothing to gain by playing those losers. Yes to Maui.

 

[CatPhight]

Maui, pre-season NIT, UKIT, etc, etc...

 

[JustBlue]

Definitely will be playing in Hawaii with a new coach. Definitely won't be playing in Alaska. And I always loved the UKIT but with only so many non-conference games (especially with the SEC going to 16 teams) I doubt it would return. I do wish they would bump the regular season from 31 to 33.

 

[Blueaz]

Hope so
**** no. **** IU

 

[4849515878969812...]

I would be happy with anything new. After Cal, any change will be refreshing.

When I was a younger man, I always enjoyed the UKIT around Christmas. I went to Maui with the cats and would enjoy that again

I just hope we go back to playing big name teams at Rupp instead of neutral sites.

lets get a title contending team assembled first... then talk about the little things

 

[AGEE11]

Maui (or any early good tournaments) UKIT yes

IU - pass

 

[UK90]

I hope so to all of it. The non-con season was more fun and interesting when those things were an annual part of it.

I hope the new coach’s first phone call is to the Maui invitational people with the words “We’re back!”

 

[rick64]

Hopefully an absolute YES to early season tournaments vs other P5 teams.

 

[JHB4UK]

Just please end the bullshit big city vanity luxury travel/shopping one off games to NY, Chicago, Dallas, Vegas, LA in Nov/Dec

 

[know1]

Maybe our out of conference home schedule will actually go back to something more respectable as well. I know we need to play our share of easy teams early in general, but it had gotten ridiculous.

I would rather go back to playing IU and Notre Dame at Yum Center and Indy on alternating years giving each side half the tickets . Those games at freedom hall were the best .

I hope the go back to playing their big games in Rupp and not New York, Chicago etc.
