KU basketball eyeing difficult non-conference slate

The Kansas men's basketball team will once again face a tough non-conference slate in 2015-16.

KU released its non-conference schedule Thursday afternoon, and among the highlights are a return trip to the Maui Invitational, a Champions Classic battle against Michigan State and a road game at San Diego State.

"It’s obviously another solid schedule,” KU coach Bill Self said. “The last two years we played the toughest schedule in the country. This year we feel like, once again, this will be a schedule that will be one of the nation’s best."

The Jayhawks will unofficially open the season on Oct.
