Scheduling news continues to trickle out as the offseason churns on.
The headliner is a new three-game series between Arizona and Arkansas beginning this season. The two teams will play as part of a doubleheader in Phoenix that also features UNLV vs. SMU. It's a rematch of last year's Sweet 16, where the Wildcats handled the Razorbacks, 109-88. The programs are scheduled to play at Arkansas in 2027 and at Arizona in 2028. CBS Sports' Matt Norlander has all the details.
Dayton and South Florida will begin a home-and-home series this year at Dayton on December 12.

Duke head coach Jon Scheyer hired Alexander Powell as Executive Director of Basketball and KJ Conklin as assistant coach, according to a release. Powell most recently worked for the Portland Trailblazers as the Director of Basketball Innovation. Conklin spent the last two years working with the G-League's Austin Spurs.
Mississippi State head coach Chris Jans hired Alex Barlow as an assistant, according to a report from Jon Rothstein. Barlow was most recently on Thad Matta's staff at Butler.
