INDIANAPOLIS - The IUPUI basketball team's revolving schedule continued shuffling this week as the Jaguars' anticipated season opener at Evansville has been canceled due to COVID concerns. The game will be moved to the 2021-2022 season to fulfill the home-and-home contract between the two schools. The game was moved as the Jaguars will be just completing a COVID-related quarantine later this week.
IUPUI is now expecting the open the season at home against Tennessee State at noon on Saturday, Dec. 12 inside Indiana Farmers Coliseum. That game will be broadcast on either ESPN3 or ESPN+ as Greg Rakestraw (pxp) and IUPUI Hall of Famer Bob Lovell (analyst) will be on the call.
In accordance with Horizon League safety protocols, IUPUI will not allow outside attendance to home contests through the end of the calendar year this season. A determination on January and February home games will be announced at a later date. In addition, all Horizon League contests will be broadcast across ESPN platforms and available via ESPN+. Tip times and broadcast information will also be available at a later date.
