I would have been happy with our schedule if we would have scheduled a D1 school instead of Kenyon.

As far as I'm concerned, we can drop Texas Pan Am as well. I never understood why we fly across the country to play a crappy mid-major.

Was our schedule for next year completed by Coach B before he was fired or is our next coach going to have to scramble to complete it?

[Big D]

I took a look at UNCW's nonconference schedules under Brownell. I like what he has done. They play a few majors and alot of midmajors that they can beat. Most importantly, they don't play D2 teams.

04/05: North Carolina, Marshall, North Texas, NC Asheville, Campbell, Illinois Chicago, College of Charleston, Coastal Carolina, Elon

They are reporting on raiderroundball that Wright State is playing in a holiday tournament at Marist University this year. Marist plays in the MAAC. They finished 19-10 with an RPI of 105 this year.

This Holiday tournament had to be scheduled by the prior coaches. I can't imagine that BB did this in just several days on the job.

I'd be curious as to the other teams in the tournament. OK, were exactly is Marist? I do like playing teams with and rpi under 125. Will we get a return visit from Marist?

The Marist tournament is the Pepsi Classic. We will play 2 games there without a return trip. Marist hasn't announced the other 2 teams in the tournament yet. So far WSU has home games for next season vs Miami and Bowling Green. Bowling Green owes us a return game from last year's Bracket Buster. We completed the contracts with the rest of the teams on our schedule this year so we should have 6-7 more games to schedule depending on if we participate in Bracket Buster again this year.
