Not sure why Rothstein tweeted this as something new. We've known this date for over a year. http://goxavier.com/news/2016/5/26/m...px?path=mbball

It was new to me. Mainly because I didn't pay attention one year ago.
"He's a little bit ball-dominant, he needs to have the ball in his hands, and he's not a good shooter." Ball-dominant … isn't that a nice way of calling someone a ball hog? Where is my Jay Bilas Thesaurus?

And the rumor of Wisconsin replacing Utah appears to be true:
@RickBroering Xavier has canceled its return game with Utah this year. X is open to completing the series later or playing the Utes again in the future.

Honestly though I think we probably get more national viewership when UC hosts on espn during rivalry week.
A lot of fans with good football and basketball, don't even worry about basketball until January.
I'd almost being will to bet that last years shootout will have better national ratings than this years. ESPN will be loaded with football games and very few people will be stumbling across th crosstown shootout on Saturday night on fox.
It will do fine locally regardless but I want as much national exposure as I can get and not being ESPN and being scheduled in the middle of championship week for football just seems like your limiting your options. I know we can't control the espn thing, but we do control the day the game is and I think it's a bad choice.

If we're being honest, no regular season Xavier game gets much national viewership. The same can be said for most college basketball. I'm happy with X laying out their schedule for the team's success over trying to maximize national viewership, which is really kind of an unattainable goal.
