The Milwaukee men’s basketball team is diving headfirst into a brutal non-conference slate in 2026-27, facing 12 games—including eight on the road—against six NCAA Tournament teams and three that reached the second round. They’ll battle powerhouses like TCU, Florida, and Vanderbilt, plus NIT qualifiers St. Thomas and UIC, and tournament veteran South Dakota State. Coach Bart Lundy sees it as the ultimate proving ground to build resilience and competitive fire before conference play. The season kicks off Nov. 2 on the road against USC, then races through tough matchups with Indiana State, Oregon State, and finishes with a December showdown against Vanderbilt. It’s a grueling, high-stakes test designed to prepare them for the Horizon League grind.

Both have been instrumental behind the scenes, and these moves signal a serious push for excellence ahead of the 2026-27 season.
