Basketball season is here, folks. New season, new coach, new team. I know we all don’t expect much of anything from this year’s team, but it’s sports. Anything can happen. So let’s take a look at the Jackets’ schedule and see how things line up for the 2016-17 campaign.
The Josh Pastner era opens with five home games against Tennessee Tech, Southern, Ohio, Sam Houston State and Tulane. We would all sincerely hope the Jackets could start 5-0, but Tech was pushed to OT in their exhibition against Division II Shorter University and a much better Georgia Tech team lost at home last year to East Tennessee State.
