University of Albany Set to Meet National Champions Kansas in 2008-09 Season

For years it worked for Denny Crum at Louisville, play a brutally hard out of conference schedule, reap the benefits at tournament time. It's a strong schedule philosophy ualbany is following.

While the signatures still have to go on contracts, the Danes are set to play the defending national champions Kansas early on in the 2008-09 season.

The Danes will visit Phog Allen fieldhouse, likely a december date. the Bill Self coached Jayhawks are expected to see 5 players drafted in this seasons NBA draft. Don't worry, they'll still be ranked come start of next season.

The Kansas trip comes a year after the Danes played at Duke. Also on the dance card this year, Big East DePaul with one other Big East school still possible.
