I know this is a long shot , but it is something positive. The ACC, lead by Coach K, proposes every Division 1 team be in the NCAA tournament this year! Just think we could actually make the tournament. Everyone in the state, except Grambling, has made it since we last made it. If it happens please basketball gods don't let us screw it up.

Sources: Conference-USA is considering a regular season scheduling model where teams would play the same opponent in the same location twice in the same week on Thursdays and Saturdays. Limited travel would help get more games in while dealing with COVID-19.

I got an email saying my Bossier 2020 tickets are good for the Dec. 18, 2021 Bossier game, or I can get a refund.

I’m going to keep them and look forward to next year.

Sources: Conference-USA has voted in favor of having its teams play two regular season games against the same opponent in the same location each week during the 20-21 season. Games will be on Thursdays and Saturdays.

Could be an interesting dynamic. If you get a tough foe at home, it's pretty sweet. But if you're on the road it's gonna suck.

Which means we have to rely on the conference scheduler to spread the pain....what could go wrong. Either way I'll be there for home games.
