Just pick the one with the lowest RPI :icon_roll:
Re: 2016-17 Schedule Thread
Say what you will, but I really admire Old Dominion's athletic leadership. They are doing it right. From football and men's basketball scheduling, to the expansion of their athletic facilities, to simply building a solid FBS football program out of an FCS program faster then anyone I've ever seen....they are doing it right.

I've read in the past that Battle 4 Atlantis is a C-USA owned tournament, similar to the Bahamas Bowl, but I think they just have a working relationship. According to Wiki, it's owned by a Kerzner International (who owns Resorts like Atlantis).
A C-USA team has been in it every year
2011 UCF
2012 Memphis
2013 UTEP
2014 UAB
2015 Charlotte
2016 ODU
C-USA is the only non-"Power" conference/team (Wichita State/Gonzaga/Butler) to play the event.

C-USA is the host for Battle 4 Atlantis and therefore gets an auto invite.

UAA’s Hackett preparing for cuts to athletic department
Quote:
In an interview with KTVA, Hackett reinforced his claim from two months ago — that everything is on the table and is a candidate to go, including teams and the longtime staple, the Great Alaska Shootout.

And of course, another year announced and another year that Tech is not playing in the Battle 4 Atlantis. :angry:
This time an institution invited to C-USA a year after Tech... a basketball program that has finished 4th and 8th in its only 2 years in C-USA... is the team selected to participate in the 2017 Battle 4 Atlantis.
2013 UTEP
2014 UAB
2015 Charlotte
2016 Old Dominion
2017 WKU
@JonRothstein
Arizona, Villanova, Purdue, NC State, SMU, Tennessee, W. Kentucky, and N. Iowa are in the 2017 Battle 4 Atlantis, sources told @CBSSports.
Re: 2016-17 Schedule Thread
I project WKU will be a top 4 C-USA team in 2016-2017 and even better in 2017-2018 when they play in the Battle for Atlantis. I've got several reasons to think this. Here's one recruit who will make a difference for the Hilltoppers if he shows up for the 2017 season - http://espn.go.com/recruiting/basket...stern-kentucky

WKU may be pretty good in a couple years, but it's ridiculous they were selected to play in Battle 4 Atlantis before Tech while we'll probably be headlining the SWAC-MEAC Challenge.

Agreed. We are not getting much respect from our own conference in selection for the Bermuda tournament.
We could be a contender for the championship this season. A major factor is how UAB responds to their new coach. Even with a new coach, they will be the pre-season favorites.
Re: 2016-17 Schedule Thread
Looks like Rick Stansbury was a great hire for WKU.
Watch out for Rice, also, with Mike Rhoades. They may have the best incoming class in the cusa this year if you include Chad Lott who red-shirted last year ??

Chad Lott? You talking about the guard from Byrd that turned down Tech cause he thought he was big time and ended up at Rice? The kid that is 6'3" but cant shoot and is coming off an ACL injury? If that's part of Rice's best class in CUSA, then that class is mediocre. He is a decent player, but in no way a game changer. He wouldn't see the floor at Tech.
