Conference schedule release?

I know there are NBA arenas that many of our schools have to work with, but any idea when we'll see the Big East men's hoops conference schedule?

It was released September 13th last year. So, presumably, it will be released in a few weeks.

Usually after the NBA and NHL schedules are set. Mid September is when it usually comes out.

From what I have been told, the (NBA) arenas are given the schedule before Labor Day weekend to ensure there are no conflicts and begin appropriate planning/preparations. Then it is released a week after that.

Schedule should be out next week, per Rothstein.

1 thing that probably sped it up a bit was the NBA is starting 2 weeks earlier. May make it easier for the NBA arenas to have more dates available going forward.

looking for the MLK marathon- assuming that'll be back this year-

NBA-
Washington plays at 1pm
Philly plays at 2pm

absolutely no conflicts with the NHL

So everyone would appear to be pretty much open to play home or away.

Sometime this week. I always look forward to it.

Are we sure it's going to be an MLK marathon again?

just saw according to Rothstein- it's been pushed back to next week.
