Would think that, with four true road OOC games already planned (the total # played this past season), that many more (if any) would be extremely unlikely. Would think URI will try to line up more home games and try to get a higher profile name since the home schedule at this point is unimpressive. Would not expect the two home tournament names not yet known to be exciting. Even the road OOC games, besides perhaps Providence, lack sizzle when compared to this past year.

Scheduling is a crapshoot. How many of our opponents looked like quality in November but were nothing in February?

I'm holding off on season tix until this schedule gets filled. So far, it's abysmal.

Those two games are at Mohegan. They also get two home games against different teams as part of that deal.

I think the schedule is pretty good.

Good opportunities and two semi home games against Marquette and Minnesota potentially. Gotta beat one to play the other probably. UCF is the other one of the four. Likely playing Minnesota or Marquette first.

Boise State is usually good.

It's not quite as strong as last year, but I think it's close.

One of my oldest friends went to Marquette and lives in CT. Our plan is to meet there for the weekend and see at least one of the days. Our selfish hope is that URI doesn't play Marquette in the first game so we won't have to root against each other until the Championship.

It is not a given that URI will play BOTH Marquette and Minnesota at Mohegan Sun. The other team is Central Florida (UCF). Rhody will play two of these three teams. The results of the first day games impact the match-ups for the second day (winners face one another with losers playing the other game).

Talk about a shitty home schedule so far.

Need to get 3 home games against no worse than Q2 opponents. Top 100 ideally.

The games at Mohegan are not part of the season ticket package. Thus making the Ryan Center home schedule not appealing at all(to date)

Posted: **Thu Mar 19, 2020 1:20 pm**

I’m not sure on anyone can think the schedule and especially the home schedule are good for next year. It is a terrible schedule that they must have made that way for the expectations of next years team. This team doesn’t look very good on paper at this point which allows them to get some wins against low end teams

Duquesne wasn’t anywhere close to making the NCAA tourney. You can’t make the tournament in this league without a good non conference schedule or the auto bid in this league.

Duquesne was pure cupcake city...and agree with Ramstock, were never in any discussions to be a legimate at-large

Posted: **Thu Mar 19, 2020 1:36 pm**

That’s not true. Duquesne was weak and benefitted early on paper from their weak OOC schedule, this is true. But the reason they were never in the at-large conversation is because they came back to earth in the conference part of the schedule. If they had gone 15-3 in the league they’d have been in - essentially the same exact position as URI, who played a much better OOC but didn’t cash in on their best opportunities.

I disagree with this completely. There is 0 incentive for a P5 (& the BE) school to come to URI to play. Coaches know true road games are hard & they know their SOS will be fine come conference play. So they will play them at a neutral arena as part of a tournament or maybe have them come to their place, but they just aren't going to go on the road. Plus when these P5 schools schedule conference vs conference games like the ACC/Big Ten Challenge, these leaves out fewer games for us and other midmajors. This is why when we scheduled WVU we had to play them at a neutral & we had to go to WVU. A10 had to do something, so that is why we are scheduled to play the Mountain West to get some sort of decent non-conference opponent.

Duke is not walking through that (Ryan Center) door. Michigan is not walking through that (Ryan Center) door.

Posted: **Thu Mar 19, 2020 2:48 pm**

And scheduling becomes even harder for a MM when you aren't a guaranteed Top 75ish team. Remember the schedules of the last couple years were buoyed by games secured during the Hurley years (WVU, Alabama, Western Kentucky), when we had a known commodity of a team and well regarded coach. That stuff matters if you are ever going to get a P5 to come to your home court. They certainly aren't going to travel to potentially lose to a team that could ruin their OOC resume. We had by far the best home OOC schedule than anyone in the league this year, that won't be the norm.

Posted: **Thu Mar 19, 2020 2:55 pm**

Also, teams are going to see how we blew out Alabama and PC.

That's not necessarily going to help bring any big names in there.

We roll through the cupcakes leading up to the Mohegan games we'll see people in there supporting us.

We will have the home field advantage and we can beat those teams. Especially if we can get some of these bigs/transfers.

You are stating the obvious. The mountain west scheduling was a good move. They need to get creative and play 2 for 1”s, the Mohegan like they have done and try to align themselves with teams from smaller conferences like NC Greensboro, ETSU, Belmont, Murray State, etc. Also play the road games against tough teams with no return. These games at home against the sub 300 teams do nothing for us. No one said it would be easy, but look what almost happened to Richmond. They had a great year and were potentially getting left out. I don’t think they were prepared for the schedule for next year. They had a great schedule for last year, despite some teams not panning out. They couldn’t control that

No incentive for a P5 school to schedule a 2 for 1 against a high midmajor like the A10. Can only hurt them. Hell even Nevada wanted out of a home & home because they realized URI was good & they didnt want the loss.

URI wasn’t a good team last year. They knew there was nothing to gain by coming across the country to play URI. No one thought that was going to be a quality win. You are right in terms of the games can only them and the fact that P5 schools are hesitant to do even 2 for 1’s unless they get a Dayton or someone they think will be good for several seasons so even a loss goes down as a quad 1 game

You can forget Xavier. The Musketeers will not even give its long time rival Dayton a game. Have not played the Flyers once in a regularly scheduled game since they joined the new Big East. X already plays a team (PC) located in RI. They will not be adding others.

Temple might be a more reasonable get. The Owls can not lord it over others as Xavier does as it is now close in stature profile to URI as the Chaney era fades from memory. Have a longer history with them and with UConn no longer their conference partner, Temple will have no annually scheduled games against anyone northeast of them. Given how much travel the AAC requires, they may not want to travel far for OOC games. Biggest drawback is that the Philly Big-5 games (4) already account for a big portion of their OOC slate leaving few other games.

Given URI seems to have trouble scheduling the maximum number of games many years, a 20 game conference slate might not be the worst thing. The top conferences have or are going to 20. This alone will have eliminated close to 150 OOC game opportunities.

I'm saying the same thing.

Those extra 2 conference games would likely be against the bottom half of the conference.

And the bottom half of the A10 is not a good thing.

We don't need more games against shitty teams.
