I like the Wake Forest, Kentucky, GW,and Bucknell games other than that I'm not impressed. I know the New Hampshire game is a bracket buster return but I think Patsos and Paquette could have made a better schedule. The home ooc games are terrible.

Can't remember a worse OOC home schedule than Coppin St (246 RPI) and Florida Gulf Coast (282 RPI). Why can't we ever get in an in season tourney like most other MAAC schools do every few years? Obviously it seems like we'll never be in the Old Spice Class, but you would think we could get in a 2nd rate one somewhere with decent neutral court games.

I agree w/ phillyhound. The OOC home schedule is terrible. I understand we have to play any major teams on the road, and that we had a lot of return road games this year, but it's no excuse. I too don't understand why we cannot get into an early season tourney once every few years. A lot of other mAAC teams participate.

I'd love to see us branch out to other mid-major conferences and tryt o schedule home & home. Conferences like the MAC, lower/mid level Colonial, etc.

And it seems like we scheduled one fewer OOC game than normal. We only have 9 not including the BB game. Too bad we couldn't get one more OOC home game.

Not to disagree with any statements above because overall the schedule sucks. But within the last few years we were in the Preseason NIT and the Philly Hoop Group Classic.

That being said there is so many mid major teams within a few hours drive that we could play including but not limited to.

Towson, JMU, William & Mary, American, St. Joes, Drexel, LaSalle, St. Joes, Delaware, Princeton, Duquesne, Robert Morris. Just adding 1 or 2 of the above would improve the schedule.
