| Is there some reason that the schedule only covers games through December 22, 2010?
None of the MVC game dates and times are shown. Surely the 2011 games have been assigned dates and times by now.

I would be very surprised if the conference schedule has been finalized. I don't remember ever seeing it this early in the summer.

| It's usually about a week or so before Labour Day (Bulldog Cornfeed time) that the schedule is officially released.

| Thanks to you both.
We pretty much plan our winter schedule around the BB schedule.
I guess I'm a little bit anxious for the season to start.

| Thanks again.
I did check the Facebook link on the "Go Bulldogs" site and didn't find the information you just posted.
That is the same information that shows up in the Schedule area of Women's Basketball on Go Bulldogs and it has been there for a few days.
My problem is all the TBA listings for the games being played at Knapp Center. I can understand some of the tournament times and some of the away game times being unknown, but it seems like the home game times should be determined by now.

Not at all,but.....
I really don't know what time any of the TBA games will start.
Maybe 6:05, maybe 7:05, maybe 1:05, maybe 2:05.
I would be willingly to wager that your class schedule is not maybe 8:00 am, maybe 9:00 am.
The hour variance could easily make a difference in going to the Diner before the game or after the game. I guess I can just tell any friends we are meeting that we will meet them maybe before the game or maybe after the game. 
A lot of plans may need to be changed because of that hour variance. If the game is at 7:05 pm, I can leave home at 6:15, park, get a coke and some pop corn and be seated well before the National Anthem. If the game is at 6:05 pm, traffic will require I leave home before 5:00 pm. (Actually, we are usually there about 30 minutes prior to tipoff)
It seems like I'm the only one that thinks a TBA schedule is totally unacceptable.
Since the schedulers don't have to keep me happy, things will be fine no matter what I think.
At this point, I'm only in the discussion to be somewhat argumentative since the schedule will, (hopefully), eventually have the correct times listed.
