Aggie Men Release 2019-20 Schedule NCATAGGIES.COM THU, SEP 5
EAST GREENSBORO – North Carolina A&T men’s basketball is headed to Jamaica. They have a huge road game against UNC Greensboro. The Aggies also face off against an ACC team and a Big 10 team, and then there is the always competitive Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) slate to encounter. The Aggies released their 2019-20 schedule with those components on it. N.C. A&T is hoping to take that schedule and improve upon their run to the MEAC tournament semifinals, a 19-13 record and a second-place finish during the MEAC regular-season. “When you’re putting together a non-conference schedule you always have the conference schedule in mind,” said N.C. A&T coach Jay Joyner. “Who are the competitive teams across the country with styles that are going to get us ready for conference play? My staff did a great job of finding teams who are going to test us and get us prepared to do well in the MEAC.” N.C. A&T opens the season at the Greensboro Coliseum on Nov. 5 against crosstown rival UNCG. The Spartans were one of the best mid-majors in the country last season earning the No. 1 overall seed in the NIT in 2019. The Aggies will play their opener on Nov. 8 with they welcome Charleston Southern to Corbett Sports Center at 7 p.m. The Aggies are 22-2 at home over the past two seasons.

This is as realistic and legitimate a D-I schedule we're gonna get. We ain't playing Duke or UNC or Kansas. We are playing teams on virtually all levels of the DI spectrum before the conference slate begins. We are supposed to have a good team....I don't see a problem with this schedule.

We have 3 home games against OOC DI opposition. That's the same number of OOC DI home games we had last year (UNCG, C Conn St, Presbyterian).
....I don't think the team is complaining about going to Montego Bay. They actually get UC-Irvine in El Paso (neutral site). UNCG is not really considered a road game to me. Even Wake Forest is a hop and a skip away.
ONE CORRECTION THAT NEEDS TO BE MADE ON THE SCHEDULE IS THAT WE'RE PLAYING JACKSONVILLE UNIVERSITY (not Jackson) ON NOVEMBER 30TH.....Initially, I really didn't know if they meant Jackson St or if there was some NAIA school in Jackson, TN.....until I read the article going along with the schedule.

I hate that we play only Howard and Norfolk once but luckily there at home. Note to the MEAC we got to get off the rotation of playing Del State and UMES twice.
I like the non conference schedule.
