Gophers 2025-26 non-con schedule news (also Big Ten MTE commitments)

Donate To GopherHole
Not non-conference related, but we can probably expect to hear 2025-26 Big Ten single-play & home & home opponents soon. Last year the Big Ten released conference opponents on May 1.
 

The best I've gathered, so far there are 13 known Big Ten commitments to 2025 MTEs (multi-team events). Only Illinois, Maryland, Ohio State, Penn State, and UCLA are TBD, if at all. Maryland is rumored to be joining the Players Era Festival shindig, but not yet official.

Acrisure Series (3): Iowa, Minnesota, Washington

Baha Mar Bahamas: Purdue

Chicago MTE (name unknown): Indiana

Fort Myers Tip-Off: Michigan State

Greenbrier Tip-Off: Northwestern

Hall of Fame Classic: Nebraska

Maui Invitational: USC

Players Era Festival (3): Michigan, Oregon, Rutgers

Rady Children's Invitational: Wisconsin

I don’t think Illinois will play in one. Underwood prefers the single game high profile matchups. Pretty sure they are playing Tennessee and Alabama again. Expect a couple more.

Kentucky's non conference schedule...just a template.
I believe the schedule comes first....then you attract better players and then your team gets better.
Kentucky above, Michigan St, North Carolina, St Johns, many of the teams who expect to be Sweet 16 teams at seasons end as a minimum aspiration schedule like this.
Would love Niko to at least play a couple powers in the non conference to get us moving in that direction. And it helps come bid time...see North Carolina last year.
