Cincinnati Tries to Add DePaul to Schedule

University of Cincinnati athletic director Rick Taylor is trying to add DePaul to Cincinnati’s non-conference basketball schedule in his effort to upgrade it.

Two weeks ago, Taylor announced that Minnesota of the Big Ten Conference would be Cincinnati’s basketball opponent in opening the new Shoemaker Center campus arena in November.

Taylor said he has had talks with DePaul about starting a two-or four-year series.

He said it was too late to include DePaul on the 1989-90 Cincinnati schedule, which is nearly complete. But he would not rule out starting a series with DePaul in 1990-91.
