NO GAMES AT THE WELL THIS SEASON ACCORDING TO THE SCHEDULE. THAT IS VERY DISAPPOINTING! After having games there for several years. I really enjoy games downtown.

We knew this a couple of weeks ago. Jason Donnelly explained why in one of the podcasts.

Did he?

I don't remember there being a reason why we would not play Wofford there!?!

Game times have not been announced, so still possible locations are not finalized and we could still have a couple games downtown (ie. Wofftard)

I hope we still have a positive relationship with Bon Secqors. When the construction in Timmons happens (which always happens to take longer than expected) we will need somewhere to play!

I’m not disappointed. I prefer games in our intimate little Timmons.

Nothing was ever mentioned about no games there this year, at least not publicly on a podcast....
Roundball did not respond, so maybe he misspoke......

Regarding Wofftard home game.....
So hockey has that weekend at Bon Secours.....

Poor job of us not working with SoCon to be proactive and switch the weekend that we host Wofftard..........

Sorry. I’ve been away from my phone. I thought I remembered him talking conflicts with our schedule and what was available at Bon Secours as the reason no games would be played there. That was the last podcast, I think.

I stand corrected. He was talking about the Greenville Invitational not happening this year.

It's fine I guess no games at 'The Well', just a bit disappointing, we had 6,000+ against Wofftard last year.....................

If we don't play at the Well this year, it will be a step backward from our stated goal of increasing our presence in the Greenville community.

I agree, we should at the least be playing one SoCon Saturday hoops game there this season that we can promote and put everything into, even if the Wofftard weekend is taken by Hockey..................
