2024-25 Season - Men's

JoshUCA

I'm excited to see how this team does with almost an entirely new roster and coaches. It may be a struggle, but hopefully it will build a solid foundation for the future.

The ASUN schedule has been released. BEARS TO OPEN ASUN SEASON AT HOME

What all non-conference games do we know about? I've got:

@Little Rock - Dec. 4
vs. U of A (in North Little Rock) - TBD

silerwill

@Utah on Nov 5 is confirmed too

silerwill BYU is the 5th, I think Utah is the 7th. Got SEMO (Nov. 21) and UNC Asheville (Nov. 24) coming to town for an MTE. At Georgia Tech on Nov. 30. Hogs game in NLR is Dec. 14, then The Citadel in the Farris Center on the 16th as part of the ASUN-SoCon scheduling alliance. And I think there's a trip to Oklahoma in there somewhere but haven't seen a date yet.

Man! I am so excited about the Shulman Era at UCA! I love his attitude and his mindset. I think he is going to do great things here. GO BEARS!

To be expected.

According to X (Twitter), there was a secret scrimmage between us and UT-Martin and the skyhawks won 73-71. That's a pretty good showing for our young team against a team that finished 21-11 last year!

Of course they have a new head coach as well, another of Coach Shulman's sons.

Since football is sucking right now, might as well talk about basketball! I can't wait to see this team and how they play. I think they are going to be fun to watch and if we can get these young guys to stay and build something here that would fantastic!
