NORFOLK, Virginia -- Old Dominion has added Hampton University, VMI and the University of Buffalo to its future football schedules, the school will announce this morning, said sources who asked not to be identified.
Hampton will play at ODU next season on a date to be announced, but the deal includes more than just football. ODU also has agreed in principle to play the Pirates home-and-home in men's and women's basketball, though it hasn't been determined which season they'll play.
That marks a scheduling coup for Hampton because Conference USA teams generally don't go on the road to play opponents from the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference.
VMI, which has a large alumni base in Hampton Roads, will play at ODU in 2018, the same year the Monarchs host Virginia Tech for the first time.
