How far in advance does basketball set up the schedules?

Of course...the ACC/Big 10 challenge is mandatory, the Creighton game is an annual thing and the tourney out West was done a couple years in advance.   A lot of the other games are set up no more than a year in advance....maybe 2.   If memory serves...the KU contract was just finalized, or at least, publicized in the offseason.

Is the Kansas game a home and home then?

My guess is he probably would've delayed the KU series a year.   The other games....were mandatory or scheduled long in advance

 

Really?  I didn't realize that.  Given that  football games are starting to be schedules for 2023 and beyond and the schedules are pretty much set for the next few years.  Husker Basketball...we don't know the schedule for any given year until until sometime after the prior season is over with.

Yes...football games are scheduled long in advance.  

We know probably 6-7 games that we will have this upcoming year...but most of the patsies are scheduled the year of.

ok...well the KU/NU series was announced March 1st.  that's why I was wondering...lol...and I don't consider them a patsies..Who else do we know...and when exactly are we playing them?  I just tried googling the 2017-2018 schedule and zip. (Creighton and KU aside). Looking at the 2017-2018 board here...the only games so far are a couple of tournaments (which do require more advanced scheduling) and Creighton and KU. So I'm just trying to figure who we have scheduled so far out.

As of March 7, this is everything that was known at the time (Coach Miles directly stated this):

 

neut. Advocare Invitational (Orlando): West Virginia, St. John's, Missouri, Oregon State, Central Florida, Long Beach State, Marist

vs. Kansas

at Creighton

vs. Big East Challenge

TBD ACC Challenge (new contract)... Coach Miles "[a home or away ACC challenge game] will determine some of our other schedule"

[uneblinstu]

There's a thread for all the schedule stuff.

Friday New Mexico announces Tim Miles as new coach.  

 

Isn't that how it usually goes?

[The Polish Rifle]

Not really concerned with Miles going anywhere this offseason. Very concerned with our current players leaving though.

According to "LoboLair" a NMU message board they confirmed that MIles has been contacted. About 95% of replies are against the hire.

Not that this is what happened but it's possible to contact Miles' agent without technically contacting Tim. 

This is ESPECIALLY true if that contact was via a tweet.

Dimes...Think we should change the board from Haymarket Hardwood to "A lot of internet nonsense"?

Here is the LJS article in full...

http://journalstar.com/sports/huskers/mens-basketball/miles-squashes-new-mexico-rumors/article_0105c73e-56af-5207-9570-ad6d7278fa4c.html

 

Miles said he met with his players Monday to discuss a number of topics, among them the speculation about his job.

"I actually met with our guys for a long time today about, you have to ignore noise. And with so much more media available to everybody nowadays, there’s less factual stuff out there, quite frankly, in my mind," Miles said. "And I’m not on social media. And so I miss out on a lot of that. Although I don’t miss it."

Miles famously signed off from Twitter in mid-December after Nebraska's home loss to Gardner-Webb. He hasn't tweeted since Dec. 18.

"Any time you hear rumors and speculation about your livelihood, your career, it's disappointing. It's unfortunate," Miles said. "(But) it's part of the business."

It's a catchy and often accurate statement.

Barfkneckt "Just moments after Miles’ first text, The World-Herald got a call from a former Division I coach claiming Miles had interviewed twice with Krebs."

Pretty selective snippet from  the article.   More denials of that scenario in the article than support for it. 

[Huskerpapa]

Same WH article: 

“That’s funny stuff,’’ Miles texted. “Only interviews have been with media.’’

Earlier Monday, an employee at New Mexico who asked for anonymity said there was no evidence of any contact between Miles and the school.

Did either of them state "Just saying" at the end of their comments to the media?

"There's no evidence"

i knew that no one else quit when I saw this hovering near the top of the board. Keep it here. I find it comforting.

Barfy should have suspected something when the coach who contacted him was Matta, and we all know that he is dead.
