4PM location and opponent to be determined. Most likely a non D1 in Timmons but FU could be a replacement for a team opting out somewhere or unable to play.

CBR says by this afternoon they'd "have the contract executed". Would a non-D! require an executed contract?

Well for sure better than no game at all at least!

We've got 3 games at Timmons to start the year off right and really get this thing rolling before we head to Richmond for a showdown with the Spiders

Another D2 team counting the game with FU as 'exhibition' so they don't have to put the loss on their record lol

That always kinda pisses me off for some reason

So big schools are scared to play us and little schools don't want to count losses to us, got it, a fickle world out there lol

I'm thinking that is a D2 rule. Quite frankly, we should not count these games in our won-loss records either.

I've seen a few teams over the past few years count it on their record without labeling it as 'exhibition', kudos to the ones that do

ST. AUGUSTINE – The Flagler College men's basketball team has announced its non-conference slate for the upcoming season.

The four-game slate features games against NCAA Division I competition, all on the road. Three of the games will be exhibitions with one game counting towards the regular season win-loss total.

If we are being 'Frank' about it, its a college basketball game and should be counted as won-loss for both teams involved 100%, unless BOTH teams agree that it is an exhibition
