Pitt still hasn’t released it’s basketball schedule for 2004-05, but for the second straight year, they will be playing in the Jimmy V. Coaches vs. Cancer Classic at Madison Square Garden. This year, Pitt will take on Memphis.
Memphis should be a tough opponent for Pitt. They have one of the best incoming recruiting classes in the country, and most of their starters are returning. This is great news. A good, tough non-conference opponent and televised on ESPN.
