Providence College Basketball 2014-15 Schedule So Far

1 Comment

On June 18th, Brendan McGair of the Pawtucket Times tweeted that he was hearing PC would play Stonehill for one of the exhibition games this upcoming season. I was able to confirm that report and have added them to the 2014-15 schedule page that is linked at the top of the site.

The non-conference schedule looks pretty challenging overall and features a few interesting opponents at interesting venues like Kentucky at Rupp Arena, Miami at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn and the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Tipoff at Mohegan Sun. I’ll be doing an in-depth preview of each and every non-conference opponent as the season draws closer so keep an eye open for those previews which will most likely be done weekly beginning in the middle of August.

Providence Non-Conference Schedule Update

Leave a comment

On Sunday night, the Providence Journal’s Kevin McNamara reported that Ed Cooley is “putting the finishing touches on a schedule “that may be too hard” and features home games against Rhode Island and Massachusetts, a trip to preseason No. 1-ranked Kentucky, a return to the Barclays Center in Brooklyn for a game against Miami, and games against Florida State and Notre Dame in the Hall of Fame Tip-off at Mohegan Sun casino.”

This morning Jon Rothstein tweeted that the Miami game will be part of a doubleheader with Manhattan vs. Fordham and will be played on 12/22/14. This confirms a previous report from John Rooke who hinted at this last week.

Let’s take a look at what we know so far:

Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Announces 2014 Tip-Off Tournament Schedule

1 Comment

We’ve known that Providence is playing in the Hall of Fame Tip-Off, sponsored by the MAAC conference, for their exempt tournament in the 2014-15 season for a while now. We even knew that the Friars would be playing Florida State and Notre Dame at Mohegan Sun. What we learned today from the press release is the dates of those games and PC’s campus site opponents. Also, the theory that PC would be playing UMass in the tournament as part of their home and home agreement turned out to not be accurate. Here is Providence’s schedule for this tournament:

November 17th – Binghampton @ Providence time TBA

November 20th – Navy @ Providence time TBA

November 22nd – Providence vs. Florida State 2:30pm at Mohegan Sun

November 23rd – Providence vs. Notre Dame 2:30pm at Mohegan Sun

Here is the full schedule:
