This is what we have so far:

@ Wake Forest
vs Lehigh
vs Norfolk State

vs Stony Brook
vs Charleston Southern
vs Gardner Webb
@ Coastal
@ Presby
@ VMI - 11/17

Leaves us with 2 openings, of course we want 1 of the 2 to be home games to get us to 6 home games for the year.

[jbock13]

Hate to say it, but if we've got 2 spots left, it'll probably be a D2

I don't care if we have to play a dismal 1AA team. Just let it count towards our eligibility.

[BJWilliams]

Well I was talking to a couple folks from McNeese and those folks would be interested in playing us. Now if they have an opening for 2012 is the question

[jcmanson]

I think getting a 2 for 1 with someone like Campbell would be good. Better than a d2. I'd even be fine with a home and home with Georgetown.

Just no d2's!

[Chippy]

It would be nice to clobber Elon again and their goofy Phenix crowing noise. SoCon should be considered.

[Sly Fox]

Maybe we should leave those spots open for our new conference schedule?

If chaos breaks out in realignment then it will be a free-for-all of schools reworking their schedules.

[Sly Fox]

Don't let it go to your head.

[Cider Jim]

Too late.

[jcmanson]

Edited to remove @JMU from the schedule

[BJWilliams]

Unless there is some recent news to the contrary 2012 is supposed to be the last game in the series for the foreseeable future

[jcmanson]

Because of them playing WVU @ FedEx they've asked us to agree to move it back to an undetermined date at this time. I wouldn't be surprised if they bought themselves out of it altogether.

But no, we will not be playing them in 2012.

I believe I've heard from both schools that it was moved to 2013.

EDIT: Nevermind. Googled it. Those are just rumors.

You would think that would be the case, but who knows. 2013 is a long ways away when talking about scheduling with all the chaos going on.

EDIT: now that I think about it, I doubt LU would want to schedule @ JMU in 2013. We already have @ Kent St and @ Richmond lined up to go along with 3 conference road games. AD Barber has always stated he wants AT LEAST 6 home games per year. So, it may be 2014 before we get @ JMU back on the schedule, if then.

[jcmanson]

Anyways, would be nice to hear we're playing a CAA/SOCON in place of JMU.

[BJWilliams]

Think maybe we could meet up with Cal Poly again? they have an opening on their schedule and I dont think we have played the Stangs this century

[jcmanson]

Chris lets us know we play Norfolk State at the Bill. Is this a home and home?

Also Lang states 2012 is a 12 game schedule, I was under the impression that was in 2014. Can anyone confirm?

[jcmanson]

Anymore grumblings on next year's schedule?

I saw a VMI fan posted the LU @ VMI game is the season finale on 11/17

[Chris Lang]

1. There's a big grumbling that I can't really talk about yet. I'll have it whenever it's finalized.

2. I goofed, and it is only an 11-game schedule in 2012. I thought it was a 12-game schedule every four years.

Just say "theres a rumor that..." fill in the blanks lol.

[bradyfan]

I really wish we would put App St., GA Southern or ODU on the schedule. These are all schools looking to move up and I think it helps our chances if we could win one of these. I know that next year is supposed to be a re-building year but I expect Tyler Brennan to have a breakout season. He's always been the better QB in my opinion. I don't know why we waste our time with these DII teams. Also, it's sad that JMU doesn't want to renew that rivalry. That game always feels bigger than the made-up, "Coastal" rivalry.

[BJWilliams]

I think if what Chris is saying is correct (and I think he's probably the most credible person on these matters outside of Sly), you will be VERY happy with whatever this pending announcement is about cj

[SumItUp]

I'm excited about this announcement.

[ToTheLeft]

I guess I am supposed to edit my comment.

[ballah09]

edit: looked at the wrong schedule

(if/when finalized)

[westhemess2]

whos the mystery team??
