It's going to be a rough schedule.

Diamondhead, at Kansas, at Providence, at BC, at Siena, hosting Wofford and UMass.

There are a couple other possible fun/challenging names out there, but pen would have to be put to paper first before discussing those.

It's the schedule that we've been clamoring for nonstop and have only gotten once before (2012-13).

... unfortunately, I fear, with a team weaker than that of the last 2-3 years

You're probably right, and this may be a "rebuilding year."

On the other hand, could this be a good thing, because perhaps stronger Crimson teams in the following 2-3 years may more easily schedule resume-building games?

Don't they usually scrimmage each other around that date? Guess they both agreed to keep score!

Harvard has scrimmaged both UMass and Providence in recent years, and then had them on the schedule the next year. Probably agreed to ahead of time.

Any word on the Tip-Off Classic? Are they going to have it this year?

No classic at the Garden this year. Word is that Boston College wouldn't / couldn't participate,

Thank for that info. Disappointing, that was a great event for all involved (other than the loss last year).

Schedule and Roster are out!

Surprises are UMass, McGill and Ryerson at Lavietes.

Freshman class seems to have very strong academic credentials (salutatorian, summa cum laude, etc). Only new name(to me) is James McLean, a guard from CA who appears to be the son of a classmate ('83) who played briefly at Harvard.

Interesting.

Which "Ryerson" are they playing? I looked at the schedule for the university in Toronto, and they're not showing a game with Harvard in January. Ryerson University 2015-16 Schedule Men's Basketball

That schedule lists 19 games and appears to be Ryerson's conference schedule. Last year Ryerson went 30-6 so it appears that most of Ryerson's schedule (i.e., all of December!) is not posted yet.

I'm lost on the Ryerson game. Why would we play a non-NCAA team in mid-January? I assume the computers look at it as an exhibition? Or like a D-3 game, sort of counts for the record books but discarded for other purposes (RPI, etc)?

I have the same question. As well as "Is this the Ryerson in Toronto?"

Perhaps mrjames can opine?

My presumption is that the Harvard-Siena series was supposed to be that game and that it was cancelled too late in the game to get a suitable replacement. Rather than sign up for an RPI-killing home-and-home with a mediocre D-I program, Harvard made the smart move and filled the slot with an off-the-books tune up for the Ivy slate.
