Arizona's nonconference schedule now includes Michigan State, Alabama, Duke, Southern and Morgan State after the Wildcats invited Morgan State back to McKale Center for a second straight season.
Bruce Pascoe Arizona has invited Morgan State back to McKale Center to open next season on Nov. 6, after earlier adding a Thanksgiving Day game with Michigan State instead of playing in the Wooden Legacy event.
As of now, the Wildcats' early 2023-24 schedule also includes a Nov. 19 home game against a team yet to be determined, and a Dec. 20 game against Alabama in Phoenix. Arizona's Nov. 19 game, scheduled to be against a low-major opponent, will technically be part of a two-game"multi-team event" that also includes the Michigan State game. The Wildcats and Spartans will play on Thanksgiving at Acrisure Arena in Thousand Palms, California.
The Wildcats were open for Thanksgiving week after pulling out of the Wooden Legacy, which is being moved from Anaheim, Calif., to Las Vegas and might have BYU and others in line to play. Arizona had last participated in the event during the 2019-20 season, winning it by beating Pepperdine, Penn and Wake Forest.UA coach Tommy Lloyd is expected to split his time this weekend between Nike and Adidas events during the first open evaluation weekend of the spring.
