Same. We have a mountain of mojo to climb to beat them at the best of times. Konkol aint gonna do it, so its just another road whipping for probably too little money (but we'll see).

Exactly! People loved coming to the games for them. Local celebrity is a good word.
I'm not blaming them at all. I tried to phrase it in a neutral way. I just know how the Big Three were because I was there. I'm not there now so I don't know.
Do we have any guys on the team right now with their personalities and fan interaction? Not saying we don't, I'm not there to see it like I was during the Speedy Era. People liked to watch them and...
I guess horse shit smells better than dog shit.
Quick, who won the NIT last year?
There's nothing wrong with postseason play but the NIT isn't what it used to be. It's given us some fun games and even a big win or two but who really cares?

As others have pointed out, we only have so much money to entice good home games.
But more than one D2 is just plain lazy. No way around it. There are about 300 other teams we could schedule...
To be fair, we've also known that the regular season in CUSA is totally irrelevant. Might as well pad our win column. Although you have to balance an easy win with a win people actually want to see.
Actually the tickets will be more expensive for the privilege of watching a swac team.
Sagarin (last year):
Alabama State, 341 (!!!)
Liberty, 223
Fort Wayne, 136
A wash, I'd say. Is it really worth playing #341 so you can maybe get #136 on the schedule? Are we even trying to...
What a sad state that we had to worry about this.
I know personally I'm just reacting to the frustration that he cannot break the Tech curse either (so far).
Nice! Should be an easy win (for any team but Tech).
Home under 150 may be hard to get to but I feel its a reasonable goal to make a rule for ourselves not to schedule below 300. That should certainly be doable.
I hear we're going for a record 3 NAIA games this year.
Takes a lot of the hard work of finding adequately atrocious teams off the plate of our fearless leader
Will any of the not terrible teams be coming to the TAC?
no joke. A full service airport would be fantastic.
It turned out exactly how he wanted it.
SWAC or nothing, baby
