I have told myself all this means very little........but maybe not if you are Shaq Carter and Peter Kiss fans.

The outcome of these games means very little. What really counts is that the coaches learn what they have and how to use it before the season starts. Also, new players learn how to fit in and work with each other. Winning the games certainly doesn't hurt, but just playing them at this time of year could mean a lot.
 
To maximize playing time during these tours, some schools only dress 9 players per game and substitute liberally. As a result, the starting lineup changes game-to-game.

Not saying RU is doing that ,just giving you a heads up incase they are.

Pikiell has already said it'll be a different starting 5 each game.
 
Not sure how much defense is being played, but 52 in a half is way more efficient than what we’ve seen over the last few seasons. Hopefully it’s an auspice of things to come
 
How old are the guys on the Madrid team? Are they college kids, pros, or a mixture? Any of them play at American colleges ?

There is probably a brief description of each team RU is playing on the RU athletics department website.

They may not publish game by game previews, so you may have to go to news archives and go back a few weeks to when they published an article on who RU would be playing during their tour of Spain.
