The Knicks have signed a two-year deal with Skidmore College to hold their training camp on campus, according to The Daily Gazette.

"We’re all set," said athletic director Gail Cummings-Danson. "It’s going to be terrific. The Knicks are excited about this, and so are we. I think it’s going to be a great relationship for both sides."

This year's camp is scheduled for Sept. 29 to Oct. 4.

The Knicks had held their training camp in Charleston, S.C., for the last 17 years, but reportedly wanted to move their camp closer to home.

It is near Saratoga, about three hours upstate. I grew up about an hour north of there in the middle of the Adirondack Park. It is a really nice spot. You can go to practice and then the ponies.

Saratoga is a really nice place. Big on horses there and Skidmore is known as a nice party college. Knicks should have fun training there...
