I am assuming this would be a one time buy game for us.  I am sure it would be costly but these are the kinds of moves that get you 7 game home schedules.

I would be very happy with this if it indeed happens.

Hawaii finished 2023 5-8 but they were not bad at all.  They finished winning 3 out of 4, with wins over Nevada, Air Force and Colorado State.  Came close to beating Vandy in their opener as well.

I believe playing in week 0 will give us an extra bye.  Also think that the way the months line up in 2024, everyone gets 2 byes.  So we would actually get three byes by playing in week 0.  Given our long standing issues with depth, this would be a good thing.

We might be looking at a schedule like this…

Week 0 August 24 HAWAII (home)
Week 1 August 31 OHIO (home)
Week 2 September 7 ACC game (away)
Week 3 September 14 BYE
Week 4 September 21 ACC game (away)
Week 5 September 28 HOLY CROSS (home)
Week 6 October 6 ACC game (home)
Week 7 October 13 BYE
Week 8 October 20 ACC game (away)
Week 9 October 27 ACC game (home)
Week 10 November 2 ACC game (home)
Week 11 November 9 BYE
Week 12 November 16 ACC game (home)
Week 13 November 23 UConn (away)
Week 14 November 30 Pitt or BC (away)
