It's year 1. Like you I will expect MUCH tougher competition in year 2 and beyond.

Year 1, most of it was pre-determined. I like the local flavor. I wish the tourney was somewhere warm and the Stony Brook game stinks.
Like you said... for me, it's because it's year 1 and KE has done enough thus far to show me he's got a TON of potential. Also, we don't know how long some of these agreements have been in place. This might look like a DP schedule because it IS a DP schedule - give or take a few games. I know the P5 and football operates on a different schedule and level, but I've seen and heard of games getting scheduled 10 years in advance. So who's to say some of these commitments weren't made in 2019, or somehow contractually carried over from a crazy 2020 COVID season?
As I said, those guys need to grow up, get a job, and quit blocking the younger guys.
what younger guys? the young guys suck on Richmond
I meant being able to recruit an incoming class.
Again.. we are playing Nevada, not Minnesota.
Actually, those guys need to stay in college, and get as many free degrees as they can while playing the game as long as they can.
Agreed, a couple of those low majors need to get replaced with tournament quality mid majors or mid range P5s if we are going to be looking at building a tournament quality resume in the future. 3rd in the A10 only gets a bid if they fall in the top 50 SOS and don’t beat up on the blind and deaf sisters of the Chesapeake bay all November and December.
Like you said, hard to judge off of season 1 when games are already on the books a couple years out. KE seems hungry and likes the spotlight. He knows games like Stony Brook bring no excitement and don’t help in SOS. No offense to the roster we have(it’s decent) but it can’t be at the level he is expecting to play with every year.
I like it that way
Absolutely!
Yep. Crotchety old fart and proud of it.
