Tentative home schedule

Hey! It's been a while, but season ticket holder @jonathanshank DM'd me some very important information via Twitter regarding next season's home schedule. SIUE has sent out information to its returning fans about our home opponents.

Nothing groundbreaking here, but it confirms what we have been saying all along. Important to note: the Cougars will play a full Ohio Valley Conference schedule next year.

Home opponents are as follows:

Cal State Fullerton: Return Bracketbuster from 2009
Ball State: Three for one? Not a fair deal, but they are finally coming.
Home Bracketbuster: Will ESPN screw us over again? Will they give us Carbondale? Who knows.
Robert Morris (The fake one): Again?
Hannibal LaGrange: (See Robert Morris)

Murray State: Billy Kennedy is gone to Texas A&M, but should be fun to get another try.
Morehead State: No Faried anymore!!!
Austin Peay: Two Edwardsville kids (Campbell and Triggs) Come back.
Eastern Illinois: About time.
Jacksonville State: Meh, it's a conference game.
Eastern Kentucky: Always a fun matchup.
Tennessee Tech: L-O-A-D-E-D.
SEMO: Revenge.

As for the women:

Same 8 OVC schools

Arkansas: Return game from last year's post-SEC tournament whatever you want to call it game. A BCS team at the VC.
Valpo
Ball State
UIC
Bradley

I'll let you know more as it becomes available, same goes for recruiting. Playing phone tag with coach Forrester on Belmont to the OVC, and recruiting is on my to-do list.

NOTE: Tomorrow is eCougarzone.com's first birthday!
